WILDAF / Promoting Women?s Participation in Democratic and Electoral Process Despite efforts from government development partners and civil society organisations to build the capacity of women candidates and to advocate with political parties and law-making institutions the number of women as elected parliamentarians dropped from 1
4% in 2006 to 11.4% in 2011, and the number of women elected as councillors remained unchanged at the low level of 6.1%. The voter turn-out in the 2011 elections also decreased to 54% from 71% in 2006 and 68% in 2001. Registered voters in Zambia are overwh
elmingly young with 54% aged between 18 to 35 and the previous elections showed a large proportion of first time voters (25% of registered voters). Still most young people especially young women lack knowledge about democratic and electoral processes and b
asic civic awareness to be able to meaningfully participate in political and decision-making processes. Against this context WiLDAF?s project aims to increase meaningful participation and representation of women and girls in electoral and democratic proces
s in six districts of Zambia. Specifically the proposed initiative seeks to achieve three interrelated results: 1) Increasing number of women as elected candidates in the 2016 local elections through mainstreaming gender into the existing legal and elector
al framework advocacy with political parties for formulation and adoption of gender-positive measures or quota system in the party capacity building of prospective women candidates and organisation of regional network forum for prospective women candidates
 and women?s party leagues for experience and information sharing, 2) Enhancing capacity of young women to actively and meaningfully participate in democratic and electoral process through establishment and support of well-functioning girls? clubs promotio
n of youth debates on democratic and electoral issues and increasing community awareness on key democratic concepts and electoral process, and3) Strengthening democratic process and practices at the local level through state and non-state dialogue mechanis
m to increase the focus on women?s issues and enhance the culture of constructive interaction between the two actors. The project?s direct beneficiaries are the prospective women candidates for the council election in 2016 and women from women?s leagues of
 key political parties young women and men aged 16 to 25 and community members including religious and traditional leaders parents and teachers.

Frame agreement with NGO (SASK) This project will help to find out the current situation of CBAs and its implementations to support joint campaigning on issues like minimum wages and other issues for better industrial relation. It also helps to advocate and lobby for a worker friendly co
nstitution. At the same time, it will build the capacity of the 3 ITUC affiliates in key areas where they are weak in their organizations. The fundamental idea is to support the joint initiatives of the trade union movement in Nepal to promote permanent pe
ace from the workers side, while also simultaneously addressing the core weakness of the 3 national centers which play a key role in the JTUCC.  Nepal trade union movement is fairly young and fragmented into 11 central unions, which are typically aligned w
ith political parties. In order to be effectively able to influence constitution drafting process, minimum wages setting and social security, the movement must act in cooperation on joint agenda. This is made possible through JTUCC and also each union?s ca
pacities will be enhanced.The minimum wage setting happens in every second year in Nepal. This project will help trade unions make informed decisions and plans re minimum wage campaign and advocacy work on the same. Each union?s weaknesses will be enhanced
 through training.The beneficiaries are each central union, their officers and leaders, and in longer run all Nepalese workers.Implementing partners are central unions through their joint platform JTUCC, and the contracting partner will be ITUC NAC, as all
 three unions are ITUC affiliates.
Dien Bien Phu Drainage Wastewater Collection and Treatment ProjectVN The proposed Project will comprise rehabilitation and extension of drainage system and sewerage network as well as construction of a 10 000 m3/day biological wastewater treatment plant. The Project aims at improving the living standard of local people by r
educing pollution of the environment and flooding in the town. Because of the elimination of many untreated wastewater discharge points the project considerably reduces water pollution.The need for the wastewater treatment plant is imminent and undeniable.
 The current wastewater system is practically nonexistent. Small combined drainage and sewerage system is mainly located along some of the main roads and due to neglected maintenance and dredging its drainage capacity has been seriously limited. Wastewater
 from households and other sources is mixed with storm-water and discharged untreated at several points to the Nam Ron River.The project management and implementation is under the Dien Bien People's Committee and the executing agency responsible for the Pr
oject is Major Construction Project Unit of Dien Bien Province. Urban Environment Company is responsible of the waste management of the area and thus is the end user of the wastewater system. The Finnish exporter was procured in Vietnam and Econet Ltd was 
chosen. Dien Bien People's Committee will be responsible of connecting private households to the wastewater system and on this part the Project will only cover the sewer piping.Implementation of the project should take 2 years and the project is funded wit
h the 10-year loan. In addition to the grant portion interest expenses are covered from the Finnish development aid funds.
Frame agreement with NGO (SASK) The aim of the project is also to widen and strengthen the membership's awareness of the importance of a free, independent and democratically functioning union. Reorganisation and privatisation in the railway sector will be central themes in the leaders' a
nd activists' training.

Promotion of school attendance amongst poor young people The project targets young people who have dropped out of elementary school or are at risk of dropping out in order to help them get back to school. Young school-leavers will be put back in touch with school staff and former classmates. They will be helped 
to build self-esteem and confidence in people and institutions through different leisure activities as well as awareness of sexual and reproductive health and addictions will be raised. The objective is for the young people to build confidence in society a
nd in their own abilities and opportunities in order to become citizens aware of their rights. In addition their ICT skills and other necessary skills in today?s society will be strengthened. A network between different public institutions will be created 
in order for the youth to receive appropriate psychological and social expertise easily from one place. The staff of the institutions in the network will be trained in seminars and workshops in order for them to be able to respond effectively to the teenag
ers and young people?s problems. The project tackles a broad problem in Argentina related to young people particularly young people of low-income who are neither in school nor working. It is estimated that in Argentina there are about one million 15-24 yea
r-olds who have not completed primary school and are out of the working world. In the Buenos Aires area the number of these young people is estimated to be 370 000. The implementation area of the project is the municipality of San Martin which is one of th
e worst affected areas of the problem and it has in the past few decades suffered significant habitat degradation and the growth of slums and crime imported by an increase in social problems. The project will be implemented in collaboration with the Univer
sidad de Tres de Febrero who will continue the program once the project has ended.
Haweenka - Women of Somalia participating in decision making and peacebuilding Women in Somalia are generally excluded from the decision making processes both at national and local level. This undermines women's rights and has many negative consequences to their lives in general. The objective of the project is to provide local women
 of Southwestern Somalia with good understanding of women's rights and skills to influence and participate decision making as well as peace promotion. To support this the project seeks to evoke public discussion about women's role and participation in deci
sion making and peacebuilding. The project also aims at supporting cooperation and organization between women. The focus of the project is on the work done locally as the local reality has the biggest effects to women's everyday lives. In the long run the 
project aims at increasing gender equality and democracy in Somalia. Out of the women who participate the trainings during the pilot project in 2014 15 will be chosen to start working as focal points in the continuation project in 5 towns. 15 more focal po
ints will be trained in 2016 to cover 5 more towns. The focal points will be responsible for forming local women's groups in these 10 towns and train them about women's rights and women's participation in decision making and peace promotion. The next step 
is that the local women's groups with the help of the focal point start to carry out local activities which include meetings with the local authorities the elders and religious leaders local events on  women's participation in decision making and peacebuil
ding Vote for a woman! -campaign before federal elections 2016 and collecting and producing information for the web page of the project and other advocacy purposes. In 2017 the focal points and representatives of local women's organizations will gather to 
a sum-up seminar to share the experiences from different towns with each other and map the ways forward. The project will also contribute to the partner organization BWDO's (Banadir Women's Development Organization) capacity to promote women's rights and p
articipation in decision making and peacebuilding.
LCF EGY / Empowering women and youth through sustainable business models in the New Valley The proposed project aims to demonstrate sustainable models for fostering responsible entrepreneurship education and job skills training as tools to providing economic opportunities to poor and marginalized community members. It will focus mainly on women 
and youth inclusion in local economies within the governorate of New Valley.The New Valley governorate has in total three fertile oases but agricultural activities are very underdeveloped in the whole region as small-scale farmers lack know how and access 
to finance and markets.   The governorate is known for its high unemployment rate and thus for its high migration rates of young men to the Nile delta and big cities to find jobs.Hence the project aims to build on the business and marketing capacity of sma
ll self-employed farmers and artisans enhancing a market driven value chain approach through adopting a coupling strategy to bond vocational training opportunities with business development in 4 vocations (organic agriculture methods and organic products s
pecialization organic composting dairy production carpet weaving and grid manufacturing). The project approach is based on establishing strong long-term sustainability and thus incorporates within its goals actions that underpin managerial technical financ
ial and social sustainability while providing the labor force with the necessary tools to advocate to the local government. To ensure sustainability beyond the lifetime of the Finnish-funded project the project has been done in cooperation with the local C
DAs which will be called upon to answer to the issues addressed by the farmer and artisan community members and with information sharing and collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture and local governments.
