Pilot Women's Economic em[powerment Rural Women's Development Society is a grass-roots women's organisation based in Ramallah and working in the West Bank and Gaza since 1987 (when it was women's ub-comittee of a larger Palestinian NGO working in the agriculture and livelihood sector). It has more than 3000 women members active in a network of 64 RWDS clubs across the West Bank and Gaza Strip. RWDS (along with another women's rights organization PWWSD) is part of the Women's economic empowerment pilot. The project seeks to strengthen women's economic position while at the same time responding to their care burden in a manner that contributes to a more sustainable engagement of women with the markets. RWDS will work with 4 women's cooperatives in the West Bank helping these cooperatives to get registered and better organised in addition to providing the members with vital information on their rights and entitlements promoting women's bodily integrity (sexual and reproductive health rights and violence again women). Activities include helping these cooperatives to run their day-to-day affairs smoothly and institutionalize certain ways of working that promote internal transparency and accountability. It will then invest in the production and marketing of products made by these 4 cooperatives with the aim to increase their income by 25%.This is still a tentative target and will be finalised once a baseline has been done. A Rapid Care Analysis will be undertaken in these 4 villages to better understand women's care burden. Rapid Care Analysis is a set of exercises for the rapid assessment of unpaid household work and the care of people in a given community. Care analysis is part of addressing inequality and promoting women#s empowerment, and care is critical for human well-being. Investing in care has a widespread, long-term, positive impact on well-beingand economic development. Care work remains almost universally women#s responsibility. Responsibility for unpaid care work is linked to causes of extreme poverty and social exclusion. The RCAwill reveal these aspects and through a participatory process women willbe asked to prioritize those findings from the assessment that they need urgently addressed and are within the mandate and budget of RWDS. The experience from combining focus on income generation work with those of addressing the care burden is the heart of this pilot. The experience gained in this process will be documented to inform similar efforts in the hope that they are wholistic and address barriers to women's participation inthe economy. Part of the project support will go to strengthening the internal systems andprocesses of RWDS allowing them to develop an organizational model and framework that responds to effectively manage a large network of grass-roots women's groupsinrural areas.
MoU OGB Indonesia Business & Human Right The Food and Beverage (F<(>&<)>B) industry is a key driver of climate change, with greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions from agriculture,deforestation and land use change amounting to a quarter of the world#s
total emissions. A succession of powerful public campaigns from Oxfam and our allies, including Oxfam#s
BtB campaign,1 have compelled companies in the F<(>&<)>B sector, as well as several major commodity
traders, to recently announce new policies that begin to tackle this problem. Nine of the ten largest F<(>&<)>B
companies have now adopted deforestation-free, peat-free and exploitation-free palm oil commitments
and seven have adopted commitments to achieve zero net deforestation across all high-climate risk
commodities.2 Six of the ten companies have committed to establishing science-based emissions
reduction goals.3

While progress has been made in securing these deforestation commitments, they represent thefirst
step on the journey towards achieving deforestation-free supply chains and reversing the current
upward trend of emissions generated from agriculture and land use change. Companies need to start
embedding their high-level commitments into sourcing policies and practices and ensure that their
suppliers uphold the environmental and social standardsthey have committed to. Further, these policy
commitments don#t adequately address the social and human rights challenges associated with
deforestation, and have yet to translate into impacts on the ground in countries and communities where
these commodities are sourced from.

Moving forward, it will be critical to hold companies accountable to deliver on their commitments while
supporting efforts to strengthen their implementation. This calls for a focus on monitoring how
companies are engaging their suppliers and putting in place time-bound plans for achieving greater
transparency, traceability and transformation in their supply chains; ensuring that rights and livelihoods
of local communities are protected and enhanced in the implementation ofdeforestation commitments;
and facilitating meaningful community buy-in and participation, as well as alignment with national
policies and land use governance in countries where these commodities are sourced.

Oxfam in Indonesia, together with OxfamAmerica and Oxfam Novib, will link global advocacy with country-level advocacy, with a focuson advising and monitoring companies# implementation of policies <(>&<)> commitments to track the on-the-ground impact on communities and the environment. This includes using findings from Community Based Human Rights Impact Assessments (COBHRAs) and company-community meetings which will be implemented by Oxfam in Indonesia to inform engagement.

Improved Cookstoves SNV Lao PDR, as the technical partner of the Improved Cook Stove (ICS) project, provides specific technical and value chain development support through its localised and direct advisory services.

The Action strives to improve the cook stove value chain on the following levels: 1) the producers manufacture more and higher quality cook stoves by adopting and enforcing stringent quality standards and monitoring processes,
benefit from access to technical and business development support as well as access to credit via linkages with financial institutions,  become more organised as an enterprise sector, improving its overall ability to develop market linkages with retailers, and coordinating with  a well-functioning testing agency that endorse quality control and certification procedures; 2) these improved cook stoves (ICS) are sold by retailers that follow an effective marketing and selling strategy; and 3) existing and new consumers are well informed of the benefits (access, time and cost savings) of the ICS via a promotional campaign supported by a respected women#s organization and mass media campaign.
AJPD - HR/Good Governance 2014 This phase out program build on earlier support we gave to AJPD since 2008 for the component of their Strategic Plan related to transparency and the struggle against corruption. This is a highly sensitive issue given the fact that Angola is a country with large income from extractives but also substantial corruption. AJPD contributed to put these issues on the public agenda and advocated towards government for better regulations and the instalment of a special authority against corruption.
In 2014 they focus their work ontransparency and corruption in the health sector and specific cases will be worked out for the Kilamba-Kiaxa Municipality in Luanda. The health sector is one of the most criticised sectors in terms of service deliver, especially since the municipalities started receiving annual budgets. Already some preliminary research work has been done end of 2013 and AJPD has good connections with the LAKDES, the Kilamba-Kiaxa municipal network of CSOs, which will be involved in the program. Part of the program (and the budget) is related to institutional aspects, investing in intensive language courses which will improve staffs work at international level, improving gender mainstreaming in AJPD as an organisation and all its programs. During the previous project on transparency and corruption brochures and booklets were produced in a limited amount. As these publications are very much procured, additional funds are made available to print additional amounts of this material for further distribution and use during AJPD awareness raising activities.
OXFAM Novib Mali The CRAFT project has been developed through collaboration between Oxfam Novib and partners with a view to achieve accountable, fair and pro-poor tax systems.

Cross Sector Movement 2015 The cross-sector movement is an informal coalition of unregistered networks and groups, supported by a small group of committed NGOs, including PAC and Oxfam partners United Sisterhood and AEC. The movement was initiated in 2011 around the proposed NGO Law (LANGO). In the draft, unregistered groups were particularly affected, limiting the Freedom of Association. The formal NGO sector did not seem willing to take up this issue at first, but in the end the two worked together. In 2012, the cross-sector movement organized events around Cambodia#s chair of ASEAN. After the initial ASEAN People#s Forum (APF) organizing committee was limited to formal NGOs in January 2012, the movement decided to organse its own ASEAN Grassroots People Assembly (AGPA) during the second summit in November 2012. The Assembly was a success in raising awareness on the (potential) importance of ASEAN for Cambodia and putting Cambodian issues on the international agenda. In spite of severe limitations by the authorities, the Assembly managed to take place and produceda Joint Statement.

In 2013, the obvious rallying point was the National Elections in July. The focus was on regional events to actively engage the grassroots, but also because so many events were taken place at national level already, including by NGO Forum. In the end regional events were held in the South (Sihanoukville), North (Siem Reap), and North West (Kampong Chhnang. The three main political parties accepted the AGPA statement in two of the three regions. Inthe aftermath of the 2013 elections a lot of internal discussions took place. Some members wanted to side with the opposition party. In the end, the movement reconfirmed its independent position. The first half of 2014 was used to reconfirm the guiding principles and membership criteria. Later in the year a series of workshops were organized in the regions on the Cambodian Constitution. As of March 2015, the membership of the movement is spread across four regions (Central including South East, South West, North and North West).The members vary between networks, local NGOs and single communities, a total of 9-12 per region.

In 2015, the Cross Sector movement will complete the workshops on the Cambodian Constitution, strengthen the movement at nationaland regional level and organise a National Assembly (Cambodia Grassroots People#s Assembly) in November 2015 focused on the ASEAN integration and opening of borders in 2016.
Nepal Joint Response/Stichting TEAR Fund The Joint Humanitarian Response for Nepal Earthquake (NPJR) provides life-saving humanitarian assistance to communities affected bythe Earthquake of 25th April 2015 and ensure efficient implementation of humanitarian response activities on behalf of theDutch Relief Alliance participating members.

Country Office 503416 Counterparts Nairo This project uses a holistic approach to tackle the key factors driving insecurity for poor and vulnerable pastoralist and agro-pastoralist communities in 6 districts of Somali region, Ethiopia, and 10 locations in the Galbeed and Togdheer areas of the Somalilandregion of Somalia. Oxfam is working in these fragile areas, recognizing the imperative of supporting reconstruction and decrease destabilizing factors due to the volatile political dynamics inherent in the region and the frequent crisis of drought. We will be working with over 160,300 direct beneficiaries in Somaliland. We aim for over 50% of the target population to be women.

Oxfam#s context analysis identified Poor management of cyclical drought, Conflict over scarce resources, Livelihood insecurity, Lack of voice and representation of women and youth in key decision making processes/fora Marginalisation of pastoralists from political processes andtheir inability to influence the institutions whose actions affect their lives and Insufficient government capacity for responding to and addressing community needs as the key drivers for insecurity as having the potential to derail peace. This project is laying the foundations for building resilient communities and improving the human security of pastoralists along the Ethiopia-Somaliland border by using a holistic approach to tackle the integrated causes of conflict. Under this project ONL will contribute to this goal by aiming to achieve the following outcomes:
1.  Enhanced pastoralist and agro-pastoralist livelihood methods, particularly for womenand youth
2. Civil society, including groups of women, youth and men, have increased capacity to participate in (community and district levels) and influence (national level) forums and processes
3. Peace building functions of community institutions are strengthened or built
4. Regional organizations have improved knowledge, understanding and technical capacity on policy issues affecting cross border pastoralists and agro-pastoralists

APDIK program Livestock This project, implemented by APDIK (Association Paysanne pour le Développement Intégré), in Ruzizi Plain, territory of Uvira, Democratic Republic of Congo, is based on a triennial strategic plan of intensification of cattle financed since 2012 and financed by ONL. First two years of programme created a solid base for recovery of activities which improve social and economic conditions of farmers of Ruzizi Plain. Main objective of this project is to contribute to improvement of social and economic conditions of farmers of Ruzizi Plain through genetic improvement of local breed and commercialisation of milk products. It is focused on emergence of local milk producers organised, professionals and completive due to augmentation of milk production through the diffusion of new farming techniques and modern veterinary care, breeding livestock, improved pasture, the structuring of small farmer cooperatives and organizing advocacy creating favourable conditions for the development of milk industry.
This project also offers a great opportunity do connect private sector (agribusiness approach) and movement to formal economy. Some of its mains results:
- Genetic improvement of 1100cows of local breed through artificial insemination.
- Promotion of livestock barn,
- At the end of the project, 300 farmers mark increase of milk production
- 5 cooperatives better structured and organised
- More quality and added value # 372,7 l of milk are collected by each cooperative (70% of yoghurt and 30% of cheese) ;
- At least 75% (250 farmers) increase their income
- 80% of diseasesdetected are treated targeting at least 6,000 cows, treated due to veterinary clinics.
Joint Response Syria The Humanitarian Needs Overview estimates that 11.6 million people are in need of humanitarian WASH: conflict as well as sustained absence of maintenance has resulted in broad infrastructure damage; limited power supply has undermined systems which were reliant on electricity; sanctions have prevented water authorities from accessing vital spare parts, testing equipment, and treatment chemicals;   the conflict has led to an exodus of skilled personnel, hindering repairs and maintenance across the country; these issues have been compounded by drought in 2014 which has depleted valuable ground water sources, water production, and distribution sources inthe Governorates of Aleppo, Damascus and Homs were targeted and exploited as weapons of war.  These factors have resulted in: access to safe water is a major issue throughout Syria; the reliability of urban piped schemes is highly reduced, and the quality of water cannot be guaranteed because of lack of testing facilities; this means exposure of communitiesto very high public and environmental health risks i.e. In 2014 significant rates of typhoid, skin diseases and diarrhoea were reported and Syria experienced its first outbreak of Polio since 1999.
The project will address a priority sector of the Strategic Response Plan for Syria 2015, namely WASH:
- Affected population access operation and sustainable WASH services according to national standards in Rural Damascus, Aleppo, Homs and Hama Governorate.  Exact municipality or sub-district will be in response to needs identified with the Ministry of Water Resources, and cross checked to validate levels of vulnerability with a range of other actors.

Results will be 1.million people affectedby conflict have improved access to a sufficient quantity of safe drinking water
Activity 1.a  Rehabilitation and supplies / equiping of wells including equipping, installation of generators and extension, including 2000 KVA generator to main water station (Soliman Al Halabi- Aleppo Water Establishment), and provision of contengency materials.
Result 2: Improved WASH coordination and qualityof humanitarian assistance to 120,000+ people affected by conflict
Activity 2.a  Capacity building and training to water establishment staff and Oxfam focal points/ site engineers on resilience and preparedness,  PHP, and MEAL including equipment
  Result 3: 2,000 children and adults aware of good practices of water conservation and practice safer hygiene
Activity 2.a Improve water conservation and hygiene promotion within local communities, in coordination with Water Establishments and Ministry of Social Affairs (approval pending from MoSA  to be reallocated if approval not given)

The project will be implemented from 1 May 2015 to February 2016.

Mali Citizen tracking budget & tax Mali ranks 43rd out of 100 countries measured in the Open Budget Index assessing the extent to which governments around the world provide public information on budgetary process. The Malian government provides some information on budgetary processes to the publicincluding making available a citizens budget and releasing information on allocations and expenditure, however, opportunities for citizen participation in budgetary and fiscal processes are very limited.
Debates in the National Assembly on the budget tend to be more procedural than substantive, with little changes demanded by legislators and with little to no feedback from, or to, their domestic constituencies. Deputies thus far have not adopted activist agenda#s on development issues to ensurethat basic services receive sufficient allocations in the budget.
There is a transparency deficit in local budgetary and tax processes with local authorities often being resistant to making even basic information available to citizens.  Citizen participation is essential in making sure the Malian government performs in the best interests of its citizens.
One impediment to the Malian government being able to have sufficient revenues for pro-poor budgets has been an inequitable  and corrupt tax regime that provides tax breaks to large national and multinational companies at the expense of small taxpayers.
Budget Tracking Group and PWYP and CAD Mali, with substantial technical expertise in tax justice and budget monitoring will work to strengthen citizenparticipation at local and national levels, research, policy, advocacy, and public influencing/campaigning, and enhancing civil society#s knowledge and access to regional and global resourcesand expertise.
