F.a: Community Development Education Programme in Northern Laos The ethnic communities of the mountain region are poor and Laos’ government’s scarce resources are not enough to ensure a sufficient support for children’s basic education. The adult population is still largely illiterate and different beliefs and ev
en harmful traditions guide people’s lives. Even with a little knowledge, people’s health situation and quality of life can be significantly improved. In the project village trainers and model families are trained on different basic life issues like pr
evention of disease, sanitation and hygiene, agriculture, environmental conservation, and small business activity. In addition, according to different villages’ needs, the villages are helped in building aqueducts and lavatories as well as maintaining sc
hool buildings and learning materials. The project’s beneficiaries are women and children. The project goal is the holistic change of the communities, which includes holistic health, education and livelihood. The project purpose is the increased know-how
 of preventable diseases, clean drinking water, sanitation and the environment. The project results in decreased number of diarrheal diseases as well as the increase of general satisfaction and belief in a better tomorrow. The significance of education imp
roves and almost 100% of school-aged children go to school.
F.a: Livelihood support towards early recovery and resilience - Mingkaman Awerial County in Lakes State in South Sudan has hosted IDPs for many years and has become a safe place for people fleeing conflict in the neighbouring states and counties. Over the years, Awerial County has benefited from life saving humanitarian interven
tions. However, the area is now moving towards early recovery. Although many IDPs have been hosted in IDP camps, there are those that have been hosted by the host community. This project has special focus on this group. The sharing culture of the community
 has led to many households stretching their meagre resources to support IDPs. The livelihood project is aimed at ensuring that gains made during previous humanitarian projects in the area are consolidated by building upon skills gained in livelihood activ
ities namely farming, fishing and milk processing.The overall project objective is to promote communities’ recovery and development by enhancing livelihood options basing on their way of life. Specific objectives is to strengthen the community’s capaci
ty to protect, restore and develop their livelihoods in a sustainable way.Expected results:• The capacity of communities to combat poverty through inclusive and sustainable livelihoods development is improved.• The resilience of communities to withstan
d shocks through provision of communal productive assets is strengthened.Right-holders/ beneficiaries: The local community consisting of subsistence farmers, pastoralists, and fishermen. There will be a special focus to include women as much as possible as
 a means of ensuring that they benefit from these forms of livelihood in an equitable manner.The project will co-operate also with duty-bearers, such as local traditional and religious leaders and government officials, in order to achieve sustainability. T
he project is FCA self-implemented.
F.a: Strengthening women’s autonomy in Macaya The situation of women is fragile in Haiti. The power imbalance between men and women is significantly broad, and women are both socially and economically vulnerable. The project aims at increasing the autonomy of women in rural Haitian communities through
 strengthening their economic opportunities and participation in decision-making. This kind of empowerment requires building women’s basic capacities such as literacy, organisational and leadership skills as well as their awareness on human rights, parti
cularly women’s rights and sexual and reproductive rights. Simultaneously, their economic and livelihoods skills are strengthened, in order to both increase their revenues and strengthen the valorisation of their work and role in the communities.The over
all objective of the project is to empower women in Macaya by strengthening their decision-making capacities and improving their socio-economic conditions.Expected results:1. Women have the capacity to effectively participate in decision making • Functio
nal literacy and consciousness-raising • Strengthening the social dynamics and female leadership (community development, networking, cohesion, identifying new initiatives) • Advocacy on women’s rights • Awareness-raising in reproductive health, Hum
an Rights, Gender and citizenship 2. Women’s entrepreneurial initiatives contribute to their full empowerment• Development of entrepreneurial initiatives • Skills training • Support and capacity building to women's groups engaged in entrepreneurial
 activities • Training and awareness-raising on environmental protection and rational use of natural resources• Training of project staff Rights-holders /beneficiaries: The project beneficiaries consist of women living in rural Haitian communities. The
 total female population in the intervention area is roughly 1,800. Most of the women in the project area have no basic education and are illiterate. Their vulnerability and poverty is linked to not having access to resources and basic services (education,
 health, food, justice etc.). They undertake small trade activities (selling matches, sweets etc.), and production and sales of agricultural products (garden produce and spices). FCA’s direct partner at national level is the Lutheran World Federation/Dep
artment of World Service (LWF/DWS) Haiti. LWF/DWS supports FCA in project monitoring activities and in strengthening the local implementing partner, Fondation de Nouvelle Grand Anse (FNGA).

VIE/Capacity Building for the Development of Selective Breeding Programs in Vietnam Vietnamin kalanjalostusohjelmien kapasiteetin vahvistaminen (RIA1-RKTL) The project Capacity Building for the Development of Selective Breeding Programs in Vietnam aims to improve the climate sustainability of the fishing industry and minimize its environmental impact using fish processing means. Vietnam is very mountainous ar
ea about 80% of the land is covered by mountains. Water is too cold for fish normally growing in the warm areas. Fish farming has long traditions in Vietnam. The project aims at enhancing cold water aquaculture. One part of the project is a fish health pac
kage which aims to protect the farming of cold water fish so that fish diseases do not ruin it. The project supports sustainable use of natural resources and improves the climate sustainability which are mentioned in Finland´s development policy and in th
e country strategy of Vietnam 2013-2016. The effects of the project in Vietnam are more far-reaching as it is providing a lot of work for the inhabitants of poor areas where also ethnic groups live. By this the project contributes to reduction of poverty. 
The project has its effects also on women as women usually do the most part of the fish processing work in Vietnam. The project is implemented by the Finnish Game and Fisheries Research Institute and Research Institute for Aquaculture No.1 in Vietnam and i
s carried out in the poor mountainous areas of the Northern and Central parts of Vietnam. Vietnamin kalanjalostusohjelmien kapasiteetin vahvistamishanke pyrkii kalatalouden ilmastokestävyyden parantamiseen Vietnamissa ja hankkeen ympäristövaikutusten minimoimiseen kalanjalostuksen keinoin.  Vietnamin pinta-alasta 80% on vuoristoista seutua. 
Vesi on liian kylmää lämpimien alueiden kalan kuten karpin kasvatukseen ja siksi hanke pyrkii onnistuneesti viljelemään myös kylmien vesien kaloja. Kalankasvatuksella on pitkät perinteet Vietnamissa. Osana hanketta on kalaterveyspaketti jolla pyrit
ään turvaamaan kylmän veden kalalajien kasvatus niin etteivät kalataudit pilaa sitä. Hanke tukee kestävää luonnonvarojen käyttöä ja hallintaa sekä ilmastokestävyyden parantamista jotka ovat Suomen kehityspoliittisissa linjauksissa sekä Vietna
min maastrategiassa 2013-2016.  Hankkeella on suuri paikallisia ihmisiä työllistävä vaikutus joka kohdistuu osaltaan myös naisiin sillä kalojen prosessointiketjusta vastaavat pitkälti naiset. Projekti vaikuttaa köyhyyden vähentämisessä jakamalla
 työtä ja hyvinvointia vuoristoalueilla missä monet etniset ryhmät elävät ja missä ei ole paljon toimeentulomahdollisuuksia. Hanke on Suomen riista- ja kalatalouden tutkimuslaitoksen ja Vietnamin vastaavan laitoksen RIA1:n (Research Institute for Aq
uaculture nr. 1) välinen IKI-hanke jota toteutetaan köyhällä alueella pohjois- ja keski-Vietnamissa.

as rural health care personnel. The beneficiaries include rural families, mothers and children. The project contributes to increased opportunities for better income and healthier lives for the families in the rural communities of Khatlon through the work o
f empowered partners. The purpose of the project is that the people in rural communities in the Khatlon region of Tajikistan live better lives. The project results in improved opportunities for men and women led families in rural communities to improve the
ir income using sustainable business methods. Men, women and children in rural communities have improved opportunities for healthy lives through cooperative actions with project partners.
F.a: From conflict to opportunity: rights-based forest conservation in Kenya The project entails a rights based approach to conservation in which forest communities’ past and present land dispossession in the name of conservation are redressed and a new approach in which the same communities become recognised as having the rights
 and responsibilities that accompany their community ownership of their ancestral forest lands. Communities thereby become the pillars of long term sustainable use and protection of their natural resources with the support of conservation agencies. On nati
onal level CIPDP together with its allies advocates within the legal reform process related to the forest dependent communities’ land rights. On local level the Ogiek and Sengwer capacity to participate in the decision-making concerning themselves is str
engthened as well as drafting of community by-laws and ensuring their implementation. On international level CIPDP will present the Kenyan forest dependent communities’ context and objectives to the World Bank Inspection Panel and the Finnish Ministry fo
r Foreign Affairs, as well as participate in the civil society activities to be organised in relation to the World Forestry Congress taking place in Durban in September as a part of wider collaboration with Siemenpuu.Chepkitale Indigenous People Developmen
t Project (CIPDP) was founded by the Ogiek community of Chepkitale in 2000, and it was registered in 2003. CIPDP aims to safeguard the rights of the Ogiek community in Mt. Elgon, particularly the land and natural resource rights. Land rights are the founda
tion of livelihood, culture and forests. CIPDP bases its advocacy work on the rights recognized in the Kenyan constitution of 2010.CIPDP has pushed the Mt. Elgon county governance to return the community lands under community ownership, developed the const
ruction of community by-laws as well as trained community scouts who monitor that they are adhered to. Together with other forest dependent communities CIPDP has advocated for the community land right bill drafting process coordinated by the National Land 
Commission.On the national level CIPDP collaborates with other forest dependent communities for instance via the Forest Indigenous Peoples Network (FIPN), which it currently coordinates. On the international level one of CIPDP’s close allies is the Fores
t Peoples Programme (FPP), and it is in the process of applying membership in the International Land Coalition (ILC), the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and the ICCA Consortium.
