Shaping the sustainable development future together with information, knowledge, education, Skills and employability…
The positive contribution of Knowledge, Education and Skills to the attainment of the SDGs and the realization of human rights worldwide will depend on the creation of enabling environments for the meaningful participation and full representation of all persons. In this regard specific attention to the needs of vulnerable groups, women and girls and persons with disabilities are needed.
Addressing the hard and soft dimensions related to the challenge of equitable access, and efficient usage of information and knowledge through ICTs can serve to unlock their potential as vehicles for positive social transformation. We are working to empower local Citizen to know, understand, secure and enforce their roles, responsibilities, and engagements for the success of the SDGs. We are pledging for the access to the right information, knowledge and the knowhow (e.g. in climate change, social justice, politic and laws, women equality, well-being for all, peace and tolerance etc.) for sustainable development worldwide! We also are relaying diverse information from diverse sources to promote social justice, education, peace and tolerance. We are researching, monitoring reporting information for free on http://lnkd.in/dU9Mqhm that is available for development agencies and the private sector.
Findig, connecting, empowering the missing millions to sustainable development programmes…
Please help finding, connecting and empowering the missing millions to sustainable development matters (education, infrastructure, information, knowledge, knowhow, finance, skills, job, politic, motivation, Self-engagement, social development issues, best practices, businesses sustainably, knowledgesharing, and divers development resources).
Data are not just about measuring changes, they also facilitate and catalyze that change. Of course, good quality numbers will not change people’s lives in themselves. But to target the poorest systematically, to lift and keep them out of poverty, even the most willing governments cannot efficiently deliver services if they do not know who those people are, where they live and what they need. Nor do they know where their resources will have the greatest impact. There are still many things need to be done, whatever the sustainable development goals are, they require a good social support mechanism to support them. The government may could be changed, but only with good social support mechanism, it is possible to have a sustainable development of our society. Whatever the sustainable development politics and strategies would be or would be adopted, we have reached a sustainable development era where there is a need of suitable social mechanism support worldwide to connect a global audience to necessary resources while providing systems to translate these goals, data, information and knowledge into sustainable local best practices.
Whatever the social, economic, politic solutions (project, program, evaluation, development aid, innovations, finances, technology, abundance of natural resources etc.) poverty will continue to defy solutions as long as the Missing Millions (poor people) do not get access to the economic, social, public and cultural infrastructures (physical infrastructures, e.g. roads.) and the related soft skills (education, right information, knowledge, management skills and the knowhow transfer) that affect and endorse their daily lives and activities wherever they are living” ~ KFDWB

MLDC is an umbrella of over 70 CBOs, NGOs and farmers' co-operatives now in Mukono District, going national next year. For the past two weeks, MLDC team has been reaching communities through CBOs and NGOs to monitor and evaluate their activities, considering the transparency and accountability process, where the central and local governments have been supporting to ensure proper service delivery at the grassroots levels. The findings will be compiled starting 22/12/2014, and reports are to be submitted to all concerned bodies including the governments. This is a voluntary services initiated by the Director MLDC, to find out how these community based organizations and co-operatives in villages have been performing, since they were registered, what support they have received or not, and why not?, where the support is needed. This has been done through cross-exchange of ideas, knowledge and resources, questionnaires and interviews to their leaders, local leaders and community members. Exercise is ended 21/12/2014. Findings are that, these groups/community development organizations are their but some not functional, some operational but financially incapacitated, not because the government does support their ideas but due to corrupt leadership at national and local levels the services don't reach them. Some yes, since their founding, they haven't received any support be it material or financial, however though resources are limited.

| Mr | Aongat Cuthbert | Community Focus Uganda | Uganda | Agriculture & Rural Development | Soroti | The agricultural sector of Teso region in Uganda faces major challenges which includes low levels of productivity, declining soil fertility, low use of improved inputs, high output loses due to pests, diseases and poor post harvest handling, poor quality standards for traded food and agricultural products, inadequate infrastructure and access for value addition processes such as marketing, storage and distribution. These challenges are grossly evident in all districts of Teso including Soroti, Ngora, Serere, Amuria, Katakwi, Kumi, Bukedea, Pallisa and Kaberamaido whose potential has been heavily disrupted by the two decades of civil conflict; this initiative has been proposed to address some of these challenges in this, with a pilot phase in Soroti district. Despite several initiatives by the Government of Uganda (GoU) and partners, agricultural productivity in these areas still shows declining trends (although the area under cultivation is increasing, the livelihoods and incomes of small holder farmers is still low). Specifically, the staple crops such as maize, ground nuts and bean value chains suffer from the challenges noted in the Agricultural Sector DSIP 2010/11 -2014/15 plan. To tackle these challenges with a goal of increasing household incomes, employment, food and nutrition security, there is need to address the contributing factors of low productivity, undeveloped farming practices, lack of capital, poor access to markets and market information, poor post harvest handling practices, low prices for produce and above all, improving the involvement of women with a gender perspective of building their capacity to engage in market oriented agricultural production since women represent the majority of the rural poor-up to 70% especially where migration, marital instability, male mortality, single parenthood and gender based violence have left them as heads of households. Realising the efforts to increase production and improve productivity but, without significant improvements in market functioning, such increases will be an opportunity lost. For agricultural development to be sustainable in Teso, it is necessary to connect production zones with input and output markets and to endeavor to improve the functioning of those markets. It is critical to address the fundamental production constraints to increase output by raising awareness among farmers on the value of adopting improved agronomic practices, conceptualise farming as a business enterprise, facilitate access to post harvest handling techniques that reduce farmer loses and enhance quality standards, support farmer organisational institutions for collaborative and collective bargaining through utilisation of infrastructure for collective bulking and selling, facilitate access to investment capital by promotion of farmer saving and loan associations and linkages with finance institutions, access to market/price information and information on techniques to improve post harvest handling (cleaning, drying, storing). | cofuganda@gmail.com | Yes | 100 - 1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | Lack of Guidance | Non | Sub County local government extension officers | District Production and marketing department | Ministry of Agriculture Animal Industry and Fisheries | Yes | http://www.cof-ug.org | ||||
| Mr | Majaliwa Mbogella | Children Care Development Organization (CCDO) | Tanzania | Poverty | Mkimbizi-Iringa Municipality,Iringa Region | Children Care Development Organization (CCDO) is a Non-Governmental Organization working in Tanzania to promote children health care, education, governance, ICT, entrepreneurs and environmental conservation promotion just to cope with the MDGS and SDGs as our core post agenda for 2015. CCDO believes that, the education of the world’s children is high on the global agenda. In the context of education for all (EFA), all children should receive free, good quality education. The reality is that millions of the world’s children are too poor to benefit from the declaration, unless there are special interventions that target their development. Unfortunately, such children do not form a special social category in poverty eradication intervention programmes. Thus, their inclusion in the achievement of the MDGS and SDGs Post 2015 Development Agenda appears to be a hit-or-miss phenomenon. Recognizing the central role of poverty eradication in wider global agendas and acknowledging the need to reach out to the poorest children with the objective to break the poverty cycle for them, HIV/AIDS INFO AFRICA embarked on a programme of education and poverty eradication. The CCDO Project aims at solving the problems hidden by the fact that orphans and vulnerable children are invisible; yet by the very nature of their situation, they are included among those that are classified as disadvantaged and poor in Tanzania. Children are subsumed within the poverty categories most often referred to such as households, communities, people – which means that there is a high tendency to focus on adult-related poverty while child problems are ignored, partly because children have little power and influence within a group that contains adults. Thus, the project will be implemented in Iringa Region at Iringa District, at Nduli village but assist some OVCs in Iringa communities. Therefore, we are requesting any partner whom we can work together to promote our children and women rights living under vivid poverty, illiterate, unemployment and diseases. | childrencareorg1@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Low e.g. None of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | African Women Development Fund (AWDF) United Nations Development Programmes (UNDP) European Union Development Fund (EDF) Enabling Support Foundation (ESF) TravelGiver Organization from Australia EuropaBook Organization Tanzania Forest Fund (TFF) | Iringa District Council | Community Development,Gender and Children Department | Ministry of Community Development,Gender and Children | Yes | http://www.envaya.org/ccdo | ||||
| Mr | Deo Bwire | BuildME | Uganda | Social Development | Butalejja & Bugiri | For the rule of law to prevail in the democratic setting of Uganda people need to be civically informed. The scope and definition of civil rights in Uganda remains largely unclear to many Ugandans which greatly curtails the rule of law particularly in the rural settings. For several years the rule of law has been undermined with human rights variously violated. There has been a marked intimidation and harassment of journalists, human rights groups and opposition group members by the army, police and politicians. In August 2003 police arrested a popular radio talk show host on grounds of sedition with charges based on criticism of the president’s leadership. During the same year, the Uganda People’s Defense Forces (UPDF) also warned media outlets against publishing and broadcasting classified information, subjecting abetting soldiers to punishment, including the possibility of court martial. In 2009 during the September Buganda Riots, the Kabaka was placed under house arrest, radio talk show hosts were arrested with 4 Radio stations closed for broadcasting news on the controversial Buganda kingdom’s cause and proposed visit of the king to Bugerere. Police in Uganda continues to vigorously involve in violating the freedoms of association and assembly with opposition political rallies routinely blocked and peaceful demonstrations violently dispersed. The Media and Civil organizations in Uganda has not been a guarantee for democracy despite the existing legal/institutional frameworks and international advocacies to guarantee their respect and independence in promoting and protecting human rights. On top of this, the enjoyment of civic rights and exerting civic duties in Uganda has often varied with gender, implying that men and women of different categories have been affected differently with respect to their civic rights and responsibilities. While most citizens are ignorant about their civic rights others are not even aware of the existence of these rights. But sovereignty resides within the people who then should be involved in determining who, how and by whom their resources are allocated. | deobwire@buildme.org.ug | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | International fertilizer Development Center | Community Development officers & Police | CAO (Chief Accounting Officer | BuildME | Yes | http://www.buildme.org.ug | ||||
| Miss | Noeline Kirabo | Kyusa | Uganda | Social Development | Kampala | Uganda has a rampant school dropout problem, according to Stomme Foundation report 2013, 70% of students drop out before finalizing secondary level. Most leave school because they can no longer afford it. There are few alternative education pathways for youth and very few employment opportunities for school dropouts. Youth unemployment is 68% and since 70% of Uganda’s population is under the age of 20 years, this is one of the country’s biggest challenges. To solve it, there needs to be another option between traditional schooling and vocational or training programs. Although the issue of school dropouts and youth unemployment is particularly damaging in Uganda, this issue is important world-wide. Governments, foundation and international organizations like the UN and the World Bank are working to find solutions. The program at Kyusa has been developed with scale in mind and can be easily replicated in other locations. | kyusa.uganda@gmail.com | Yes | 100 - 1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REimOKMhQO0 | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | Kyusa has so far been supported by Braille Without Borders Switzerland.

The camp has no educational facilities and this will add up to high number of children out of school in Nigeria.

The technical definition used by specialist is “Nutrient insecurity,” that is when people have no physical and economic access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs. There is also difference between food security and nutrients security. Food insecurity occurs when people are unable to meet their minimum requirement over a period of time due to poverty, lack of assets and inadequate access to productive or financial resources, climate/weather conditions. Nutrition insecurity is the inability to meet minimum food nutrients or a balanced diet required over a period of time. Due to poverty, over-population, domestic/household feeding practices, sickness and ignorance. This means there is food available but either there is not enough variety or ignorance in how to prepare a balanced/healthy meal. | abuib2001@yahoo.com | Yes | 100 - 1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | Partnership for Child Development PCD, World Vision, and Spring | CCEYD | District Health Directrate | Ghana Health Service | NO | http://www.cceyd.org | ||||
| Mr | Mawazo Yusuf | Lake Albert Basin Kommunity Development Organisation (LAKODO) | UGANDA | Health | Fishing Villages on the shores of Lake Albert - across five districts | The districts bordering and sharing Lake Albert shoreline include; Nebbi, Buliisa, Hoima, Kibale and Ntoroko in the western Uganda, have large populations living in remote and hard to reach fishing villages. These districts have widespread HIV/AIDS prevalence among poor, vulnerable and marginalised lake dependent communities. Data from selected sentinel sites around fishing villages on Lake Albert indicate HIV prevalence rates in ranges of 21.9% - 34.9%, (NSP midterm review report, 2014) which is significantly higher than the national average prevalence of 7.3% (AIS, 2011). A number of issues are responsible for this increasing prevalence of HIV/AIDS, which include but are not limited to; 1) poor and in some cases non-existent, health and HIV/AIDS services, 2) high levels of mobility and interaction among lakeshore communities, 3) predominance of sexually active age groups i.e. the majority are young people, 4) fluidity of ‘marital’ relationships i.e. men and women engaged to many partners, 5) inadequate infrastructure i.e. isolated and inaccessible e.g. poor roads, 6) limited livelihood diversification (fishing is the main income), and 7) lack of support programs on HIV/AIDS prevention targeting the fishing communities, and 8) a lack of and non-availability of cheap and affordable financial service i.e micro-credit scheme, and 9) limited engagement, lack of information and organisation of communities into collectives of social transformation and change . While fishing communities have been identified by the National HIV and AIDS Strategic Plan 2010/11-2014/15 as among the vulnerable and most at risk populations in Uganda, policies have not been put into practice and resources for HIV/AIDS interventions among these largely isolated communities have not materialised despite widespread recognition of high HIV infections and AIDS prevalence rates. This undertaking responds to priorities informed by LAKODO’s increased interactions and engagement with lake dependent communities operating in these hard to reach villages over the last three months since November, 2014. This undertaking should address this challenge by increasing knowledge, information and raising awareness on issues of HIV/AIDS, prevention, and rights; access to micro-credit, building capacity of community institutions to advocate for their needs and entitlements; raise awareness with service providers and local authorities regarding needs of communities; build organisational capacity of community institutions and LAKODO to engage in advocacy at multiple levels. These actions together will create a multi-level advocacy effort which will result in a community-owned response to HIV/AIDS including improved HIV/AIDS services. | lakodo2014@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | Lack of Action | n/a | District Local Gov't -Chairpersons | DistrictAdministrateiv Officers | District Health Officers | Yes | n/a | ||||

| Mr | Joseph Mutaaya | Rural Youth Poverty Eradication Initiatives | Uganda | Poverty | Kampala | At RYPEI, we believe that Agriculture and the youth are the backbone of many economies in Africa and Uganda is no exception. The sector is dominated by small scale farmers, majority of who are the rural poor. The farmers are faced with low productivity and production, unfavourable policy environment and low incomes. Their situation is made worse by the uncoordinated actions and conflict of interest by key organisations and government institutions leading to poor service delivery. Rural Youth Poverty Eradication Initiatives (RYPEI) is one of the few civil society organisations in Uganda whose work increases youth ability to improve their livelihoods through promoting sustainable development by linking environmental conservation with living standards and a better quality of life. We promote activities that alleviate poverty by supporting smallholder youth groups to undertake initiatives geared towards livelihood improvement and natural resources regeneration and conservation. Since 2006, RYPEI has enabled the youth to improve their livelihoods by equipping them with skills in sustainable farming practices, access to renewable energies, youth entrepreneurship training and access to ICTs for development. Through our growing numbers of youth groups, we reach over 5,000 youth in Wakiso and Mbarara districts in Uganda; 65% being the girls. Despite the above achievements, we are experiencing a number of challenges. With your support and collaboration, we anticipate reaching more youth for enhanced food/income security and improved livelihoods. Please join us as we promote youth empowerment for sustainable livelihoods. | mjosey1122@yahoo.com | No | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | GORTA UNOPS | Joseph Mutaaya | NO | http://www.rypei.org | ||||||

| Mr | PARAMANANDAN | FOUNDATION FOR RESEARCH AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (FRSD) | INDIA | Health | MADURAI RURAL | Today, the drinking water comes from surface and ground water. Large-scale water supply systems depend on surface water resources, and smaller water systems depend on ground water. The contaminants in drinking water are different and can cause a range of diseases in children, including cancer, and acute diseases such as gastrointestinal illness. Rural women and children are particularly sensitive to microbial contaminants because their immune systems are weaker than those of adults. Children are sensitive to lead, which affects brain development, and to nitrates which cause several disorders. Rural women are the worst affected in this regard. The need of the hour is an environmentally sustainable, cost effective solution for potable water purification at home to benefit our communities drinking microbiologically contaminated impure water. Main Goal: The project is aimed at rediscovering our ancient, traditional methods of sustainable water purification using locally available medicinal plants, seeds and tubers that cleanse water while retaining its natural benefits. Long Term Goal: Our project aims to deliver time tested, low carbon, non chemical, traditional water purification technology practiced by our ancestors for the benefit of humanity. The traditional technology is scientifically proved and widely acknowledged by our contemporary researchers considering the urgent need for pure drinking water. The technology can be scaled up and can be delivered to rural and urban people in a large scale without much capital cost and time. Objectives: The primary objective of this research study is to overcome one of the limitations of the present water purification processes by demonstrating that traditional techniques using medicinal plants, seeds, tubers and trees can selectively remove targeted contaminants in water such as salts, metals, and acids. The following strategies have been planned by our Foundation: (a) Developing simple treatment techniques (Green Technology)/Community water purification for providing safe, hygienic and potable water to rural people in rural areas with a focus on rural areas to mitigate drinking water crisis- a recent challenge. (b) Conducting workshops on traditional water purifying techniques with practical demonstration on purifying water with natural filtration.(simple and rudimentary treatment techniques using herbs, seeds, tubers and branches of medicinal trees) so as to collect sufficient data on traditional water purification techniques used by rural people.(d)Introduce the method in all rural schools with the help of District Administrations to ensure schools break the cycle of unsafe drinking water to ensure students health and save them from waterborne diseases | frsdmdu@yahoo.co.in | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | Lack of Guidance | 1.

| Mr | Davy | Tsoro-o-tso San Development Trust | Zimbabwe | Education | Sanqinyana, Ward 7, Tsholotsho | The current Tshwao/San communities of Tsholostho and Plumtree inhabited the land 20 000 years ago, being continuously pushed to the outward remote areas by other stronger social groups. In 1928 they were moved from the main forest by the then government when the Hwange game reserve was created. This meant that the land which they occupied and used as a source of livelihood was drastically reduced. The then govt made promises to assist their adaptation to a sedentary lifestyle. As time went on Gvt promises were not fulfilled, and the Tshwao had to live a life that vacillated between sedentary and nomadic, maintaining permanent homes, while depending on nomadic livelihoods systems of hunting and gathering. Adaptation to the sedentary way of life proved difficult as they lacked the necessary knowledge, skills, resources and support to do so. Continued nomadic lifestyles became increasingly difficult as due to the government laws on access and use of forest and wildlife resources. With increasing control on forest and wildlife resources through anti-poaching laws, dwindling forests, droughts and other socio-economic challenges, the Tshwao found themselves at the edge of survival. | TsorotsoSanDevTrust@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | Osisa | Village Head | Rural District Council | Ministry of Social Work | Yes | N/A | ||||

| Mr | Oyewole Babatunde David | LAND SUSTAINERS | Nigeria | Poverty | Ayedade village near Orile Owu | Empowering women oil-palm processors through hygienic methods that would add value to their products. The population of Ayedade village south west Nigeria falls in the 100-1000 bracket with a 60% women constituent. Oil-palm is the main occupation of women who have to rely on men for the more critical operations (harvesting palm bunches, transporting bunches to processing sites, digesting fruits etc) of the processing activities. The current practice of processing especially when women had to wade into digesting pits to skim off oil film on top of the slurry is very unhygienic. This process also gives the end product a peculiar odor which affects quality and consequently the market price. Intervention could start right from the field by replacing the already moribund palm plantation with dwarf palm variety and introduction of gender sensitive portable mechanical separators. Clean borehole water is already in place courtesy of a federal government rural water provision project, but powered through diesel supply and maintenance by a Church Organization. Empowering the women in Ayedade could lift the whole village out poverty which is now a most glaring feature. | babatundeoyewole@gmail.com | No | 100 - 1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Lack of Action | N/A | Ayedade LGA | Agricultural Dept | NO | ||||||

| Mr | Md. Murad Nabi | FFDA- Forum for Development Association | Bangladesh | Social Development | Dhaka | A street child in Bangladesh is someone has become his or her habitual abode or source of livelihood; and who is inadequately protected, supervised, or directed by responsible adults. The street children do not go to school instead they sell things in the streets or do other jobs as their parents earn less money or do not work. It is estimated that there is Over 600,000 Street children living in Bangladesh, 75% of them live in the nation's capital, Dhaka. In a Country ranked 138th on the Human Development Index and where 50% of the population is living below the poverty line, these children represent the absolute lowest level in the social hierarchy. In the world's most densely populated nation. Nowadays the population in this country increased and the number of street children is also increased to four million. The lives of the street children are hard; they do not have the ability to earn enough money by selling things as they are not educated. Some of the government organizations sometimes help them. The street children in Bangladesh are unable to go to school and for that they do not get proper education. It is very important for them to study as they will find themselves spending the rest of their lives miserably. The non-government organizations help them to be educated. | ffdassociation@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | Own Fund | UNICEF | Yes | http://www.ffdassociation.org | ||||||

| Mr | Imran Salim Shahid | Shine Society | Pakistan | Education | Urban Slums of Islamabad | National and international terrorism, natural disasters (earthquake 2005 and flooding 2010 & 2011), socio-economic and political instability have severely affected the living of common people in Pakistan since past two decades. Unstoppable inflation and continued increase in fuel and utilities prices has adversely affected low and middle level families’ daily living. Energy crisis resulted in reduction in production of industries, agriculture sector that also caused reduction in job opportunities for common people. Crime rate in urban and rural areas is increasing day by day and good governance by government has become a big question mark. Shine Society’s target area is 9 slums of Federal Capital Islamabad, where almost 95% inhabitants are poor and illiterate Christians migrated from rural areas of Punjab Province to earn their livings in metropolitan city. These 9 slums host about 80,000 low paid inhabitants working in government and private offices as cleaners and houses of rich people as domestic workers. They live in 7500 small mud and bricks houses without proper basic living facilities (clean drinking water, sanitation, electricity, gas, healthcare, education etc). The average family size is 8 and average family income is PKR 9,000 per month (US$100). In 80% cases only 1 family member is breadwinner and rest are dependent on him/her. Literacy rate at primary level is 50%, at high school level 15% and university level 4%. Selling drugs and liquor is day by day increasing in slums and attracting young boys as carriers of drug suppliers. Young children are vulnerable and seriously prone to social crimes. Target Community of Children Education Program Shine Society target communities are France Colony and Iqbal Town areas for children’s education Plan. In France Colony Total population of France Colony 850 families lives in 642 houses and total population is 6930. In some cases 2 or 3 families live in one house. Among 6930 there are 1217 (617 boys and 600 girls) children of 9-19 years age and 3163 children of 1-9 years age. Key focus of Shine Education Plan is 900 children of 3-5 years age. Like other slums, France Colony lacks education facility for young children. There is an urgent/ genuine need of providing education to children for their personality development and character building, better future and protection from social crimes (drugs etc.). | isshahid.shine@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Facebook Page: Shine Society | Insufficient mobilization of funds | Sharing for Future (South Korea).

| Mr | Jonathan Conteh | Vision for the Blind | Sierra Leone | Humanitarian Aid | Freetown | The Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak is proving to have a wider security, economic and livelihood impact in the entire Sierra Leone. Restrictions on movement out of, into and within affected districts have resulted in a shortage of availability of goods and services. Five out of the fourteen districts in Sierra Leone are currently under quarantine accounting for 2,448,297 people. Medical goods needed to respond to the outbreak and goods to meet basic needs (i.e. food and water) are in shorter supply due to transport limitations. In recent times there has been increased tensions and in some cases violent attacks on health personnel (burial teams, etc), which have been recorded from Kono, Port Loko and Freetown. Other major security issues include stick actions or demonstrations by health workers and volunteers. In almost all the districts, there have been demonstrations mainly over delay in the payment of hazard incentives and protection issues. The impact of these demonstrations across the country do not only purse a security treat but also militate against actions in containing the EVD virus. Many patient; both EVD positive and those with other health concerns are left un-attended when these strike actions arise. | visionfortheblind2013@gmail.com | Yes | 100 - 1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | Shain Foundation NL | Susan onteh | Momoh Koroma | Osman Kamara | Yes | http://www.visionfortheblind2013workpress.com | ||||

| Dr | Goodwill Social Work Centre | India | Environment | Madurai,Tamilnadu,India | Protection of environment has posed not only a major challenge but also a social and moral responsibility in the present society. Children like any other children of the world who live in villages and backward areas in and around Madurai, Tamilnadu, India need a decent, secure, affordable home which is fundamental to the realization of children’s rights. The quality of housing affects girls’ and boys’ health and overall environment. Their health and survival depends as much on healthy environments as on health services. In fact, these children are particularly affected by health related problems which are related to water and sanitation and they are susceptible to diarrhoeal diseases, intestinal worms and various eye and skin ailments. Inadequate living environments namely environmental chaos, stress and parenting, poor housing, absence of safe informal public gathering places, lack of easy access to opportunities for safe play, absence of constructive opportunities for young people, repeated exposure to violence in hazardous in rural and semi- urban environment etc impact the quality of life of children. It is found that children who live in rural and backward areas have heightened vulnerability to a variety of exposures as a consequence of their developmental, behavioural and physiological characteristics. They receive greater exposures per unit of body weight than adults because – for their size – they eat more food, drink more liquids, and breathe more air than adults. Depending on their age, children's ability to metabolize, detoxify and excrete many toxicants is different from that of adults. Exposures at critical periods of development can result in irreversible damage to the growing nervous system, affect emerging behaviour patterns, cause immune dysfunction and have serious reproductive effects.Children's behaviour often places them at higher risk than adults to certain environmental hazards, because of their exploratory behaviour, frequent hand-to-mouth activity, and proximity to the ground - all of which result in greater contact with sources of contamination. Knowing the importance of information dissemination in promoting the environmental health rights among children and providing opportunity for them to effectively participate in practice - based learning experiences, the Goodwill social work centre proposes to launch a CHILDREN’S ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH RIGHTS’ centre to cater to the needs of children and young people in and around Madurai, Tamilnadu, South India and backward areas in and around Madurai, Tamilnadu, South India. The proposed project will provide education and training on children’s rights and environment, research on issues concerning environmental health rights, takes up advocacy, undertakes capacity building, work in partnership with local and international organizations, work with media and press and act a resources centre for children, youth, teachers and parents”. It aims to build harmonious relationship between the environment and children and young people. Our work will Centre on promoting greater access to justice and guarantee human rights for children who are victims of environmental degradation. Children will be sensitized to environmental issues and provided with an opportunity to participate in media intervention campaigns, participatory training and field exposure programmes. They will empowered with information of the environment and will be ‘environmentally concerned’ about the health rights and the need to protect and promote their rights. They will be empowered to identify potential environmental risks and solutions. They will have greater opportunities to have access to Internet based ecology and environment information. Pre-assessment and post assessment surveys to measure the level of knowledge and attitudes among the children will assess the success of the project. Qualitative assessment of the participation of children in various participatory training programmes and activities will also serve an indicator for defining success of the project. Assistance to children and their parents who are victims of environmental degradation. Parents, teachers and local community based civil society organizations in the project areas will be empowered through Education, training and awareness building in human rights for children and environmental health rights | chrisdangswc@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Low e.g. None of the populations in the village go to school, Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPW8HTkKEMA | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | ART VENTURE,SINGAPORE | Dr.J.Christopher Daniel,Ph.D | Dr.J.Christopher Daniel,Ph.D | Dr.J.Christopher Daniel,Ph.D | Yes | http://www.goodwillsocialworkcentre.org | ||||

| Mr | Abdullahi Abdi Mohamed | Somali Youth Development Foundation’s (SYDF) | Somalia | Humanitarian Aid | Bula-Hubei, Wadajir District, Mogadishu Somalia | The incidence of suicide/Explosive Devices in Somalia has increased markedly in recent years, making suicide a major social problem. Between 2011 and 2015, the annual number of suicides increased from 35% to 65 %; the most dramatic increase occurred in middle-aged men, the group showing the greatest increase in depression. Recent studies have shown that prevention campaigns are effective in reducing the total number of suicides in various areas like, Gedo, Middle-Jubba,Lower-Shabele as well as Banadir in Somalia. Such interventions have been targeted at relatively urban populations, and national data from public health and clinical studies are still needed. The Somali governments have not yet established the goal of reducing the annual number of suicides from 2011 to 2015 by thousand died; toward this end, several programs have been proposed, including the Mental Barrier Free Declaration, and the Guidelines for the Management of Depression by Health Care Professionals and Public Servants. However, the number of suicides has not declined over the past 6 years. Achieving the national goal during the remaining years will require extensive and consistent campaigns dealing with the issues and problems underlying suicide/explosive as well as simple screening methods for detecting depression. These campaigns must reach those individuals whose high-risk status goes unrecognized. In this review paper, we propose a strategy for the early detection of suicide risk by screening for depression according to self perceived symptoms. This approach was based on the planed symposium Approach to the Prevention of Suicide in Clinical and Occupational Medicine held at the 1st Conference of the Somali Youth 2015 agendas. | info@sydf,org | Yes | >1000 | Low e.g. None of the populations in the village go to school, Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school, High e.g. Most of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=hhVLdurpc2Y | Lack of Guidance | SYDF as well as https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/suicide-explosive-prevention-proposal-for-young/x/9747085 | Somali Youth Development Foundation’s (SYDF) | Somali Youth Development Foundation’s (SYDF) | Somali Youth Development Foundation’s (SYDF) | Yes | http://sydf.org/ | |||

| Mr | Ngwa Wilson Forbi | Integrated Youth Volunteer Foundation (IYVF) | CEMAC Countries | Poverty | Rural and Urban Communities . | CEMAC Children with disabilities (CCWD) are among the most stigmatized and excluded of children around the world; girls and adolescent girls with disabilities are among the most disadvantaged due to discrimination against their sex, climate change, gender inequality disability and other factors, such as poverty and ethnicity. Children with disabilities are likely to have poorer health, less education, less economic opportunity, live in greater poverty and deal with more inequalities than their counterparts without disabilities. ‘Disability’ is an evolving concept – it can be physical, mental, intellectual and/or sensory; some children are born disabled and others become disabled due to an accident, injury, malnourishment or disease. Disabilities can range from moderate to severe, some are permanent and others are temporary. Many are preventable and are linked directly to poverty (lack of health care and immunizations, poor nutrition, etc.) It is estimated that over 1 billion people in the world today live with a disability, which includes about 80% living in developing countries and 20% of the world’s poorest and most disadvantaged people. It is calculated that about 1 in every 10 children in the world copes with a disability and only 2-3% of disabled children in low income countries go to school. In general, data on people with disabilities, particularly children with disabilities, are lacking or underestimated. This is due to factors such as stigma, isolation, families hiding disabled children and not being counted in census reports. While significant progress has been made – e.g. over 100 countries have ratified the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities by governments and the international development community to support children with disabilities appear to be increasing – the CEMAC National Partnership on Children with Disabilities (CNPcwd) is a Call to Action to address the significant need for more effective coordination and cooperation . While the Integrated Youth Volunteer Foundation (IYVF) are working together at the CEMAC Countries (Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea and the Republic of Congo ) ,global and national level on advocacy to enhance coordination and results amongst the local partners and establish new relationship in line with the overarching objectives which include: 1)-To integrate the rights of children with disabilities into the disability agenda and child-focused agendas; and 2)-To advocate for an inclusive approach to development that acknowledges children and disability. -Identify what are the key challenges /opportunities at CEMAC level for children with disabilities. -Agree critical CEMAC common objectives and specific plan, or framework of results, etc. and suggested time frame, resources needed to support children with disabilities etc. -Leverage international cooperation in country level following Article 32 of the CPRD. -Establish and seek legislative endorsement for a coherent policy and legal framework for children with disabilities within the CEMAC . -To integrate children with disabilities into the disabilities agenda and child focused agendas 2015 in the CEMAC ; -To provide a platform for CEMAC COUNTRIES to advocate for an inclusive approach to development that acknowledges children and disability. -To establish National Partnership on children on with disabilities (NPcwd) within the CEMAC Region.

| Mr | Ngwa Wilson Forbi | INTEGRATED YOUTH VOLUNTEER FOUNDATION (IYVF) | Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea and the Republic of Congo. | Poverty | Rural and Urban Communities . | The goal context in relation to poverty and development has evolved significantly since the millennium declaration .International development stakeholders are discussing possible post-MGD frameworks and beyond 2015 initiatives, this presents an important opportunity for National Partner on Children with Disabilities (NPcwd) and the Government of CEMAC Countries as disability advocate to influence the agenda and to call for critical inequality and discrimination to be address. The NPwcd will mobilize advocacy efforts to ensure that future national development frameworks comprehensively and clearly acknowledge the right of people with Disabilities in line with the intentional convention on the Rights of Persons with disabilities. This national and international recognition would enable enhanced advocacy by, and empowerment of, people with disabilities and increased financial incentive for disabilities –inclusive programmes for children and people with disabilities. In line with the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), the Convention on the Right of child (CRC), to the protection and welfare of persons with disabilities signed by the head of state, the partnership provides a platform for advocacy and collective action to ensure the rights of children with disabilities are included in and prioritized by both the disability agenda and child-focused agendas, While the Integrated Youth Volunteer Foundation (IYVF) are working together at the CEMAC Countries (Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea and the Republic of Congo ) ,global and national level on advocacy to enhance coordination and results amongst the local partners and establish new relationship in line with the overarching objectives which include: 1)-To integrate the rights of children with disabilities into the disability agenda and child-focused agendas; and 2)-To advocate for an inclusive approach to development that acknowledges children and disability. -Identify what are the key challenges /opportunities at CEMAC level for children with disabilities. -Agree critical CEMAC common objectives and specific plan, or framework of results, etc. and suggested time frame, resources needed to support children with disabilities etc. -Leverage international cooperation in country level following Article 32 of the CPRD. -Establish and seek legislative endorsement for a coherent policy and legal framework for children with disabilities within the CEMAC . -To integrate children with disabilities into the disabilities agenda and child focused agendas 2015 in the CEMAC ; -To provide a platform for CEMAC COUNTRIES to advocate for an inclusive approach to development that acknowledges children and disability. -To establish National Partnership on children on with disabilities (NPcwd) within the CEMAC Region.

| Mrs | REBECCA CHEPTOO CHIRCHIR | KENYA | Agriculture & Rural Development | NANDI COUNTY | Agribusiness mentorship of rural women for economic and social empowerment: Rural Women in Kenya lack access to resources due to low levels of education,lack of funding, low gender awareness, limited mentorship programmes, and low accessibility to information. This is due to the fact that women are responsible in the management of the family and the farm activities but does not decide on the the utilization of the outcomes of the farm.Access to education is limited and women‘s educational pursuits are often not encouraged. Instead, as mentioned above, early in life women are expected to take on the responsibilities of caring and supporting their family (for example, taking care of their parents or assisting in earning money to pay for the children's school fees). These responsibilities can be quite heavy and often deny women important experience and access to strategic information.Women often do not complete higher levels of education because they have children at a young age.Current laws in Kenya make inheritance and accumulation of wealth more difficult for women, hence severely limiting the ability to invest or save as their financial resources are a derivative of their lack of control or ownership of property. Men tend to control more of the family financial resources and can receive more financial support from the community. This therefore calls for support for mentoring these rural women by transforming their mindset from subsistence to entrepreneurship which then empowers them economically and socially. if this happens, dependency on the man's pocket is minimized hence improving their decision making on resource allocation and access to strategic information, and also be able to mentor the girl child. | jeptoorebecca@yahoo.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | Agricultural Sector development support programme, funded by SIDA(Sweidsh Government) and the Government of Kenya | County Government of Nandi | Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries | NO | |||||||

| Mr | Abdullahi Abdi Mohamed | Somali Youth Development Foundation (SYDF) | Somalia | Humanitarian Aid | Bula Hubei - Banadir-Somalia | The incidence of suicide/Explosive Divices in Somalia has increased markedly in recent years, making suicide a major social problem. Between 2011 and 2014, the annual number of suicides increased from 35% to 55 %; the most dramatic increase occurred in middle aged men, the group showing the greatest increase in depression. Recent studies have shown that prevention campaigns are effective in reducing the total number of suicides in various areas like,Gedo, Middle Jubba,Lower Shabele as well as Banadir Somalia. Such interventions have been targeted at relatively urban populations, and national data from public health and clinical studies are still needed. The Somali government have not yet established the goal of reducing the annual number of suicides from 2011 to 2015 by thousand died; toward this end, several programs have been proposed, including the Mental Barrier Free Declaration, and the Guidelines for the Management of Depression by Health Care Professionals and Public Servants. However, the number of suicides has not declined over the past 6 years. Achieving the national goal during the remaining years will require extensive and consistent campaigns dealing with the issues and problems underlying suicide/explosive , as well as simple screening methods for detecting depression. These campaigns must reach those individuals whose high risk status goes unrecognized. In this review paper, we propose a strategy for the early detection of suicide risk by screening for depression according to self perceived symptoms. This approach was based on the planed symposium Approach to the Prevention of Suicide in Clinical and Occupational Medicine held at the 1st Conference of the Somali Youth 2015 agendas. Depending on sampling procedures and research methods. About 11% of all non natural deaths are suicide related. On average 9.5% of non natural deaths in young people are due to suicide. It is a complex phenomenon and risk factors are, therefore, multifactorial and multidimensional. Some of the most important ones UNDP attack, Hotel Shamoow, as Well as Presidential House as identified examples and several priorities and prevention possibilities for reducing suicidal behavior are recommended. The outline and structure for such a national suicide prevention programme is underpinned by research undertaken locally and internationally. It requires a comprehensive multi sectoral approach that involves both health care and non health care sectors and action at various levels utilising a framework based on a set of guiding principles and a range of strategies with specific objectives as a national priority within an interdisciplinary context through youth to youth wise management. | info@sydf.org | Yes | >1000 | Low e.g. None of the populations in the village go to school, Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school, High e.g. Most of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhVLdurpc2Y | Lack of Action | 1. http://www.eventbrite.com/e/to-mobilize-communities-and-children-for-the-incidence-of-suicideexplosive-divices-in-somalia-as-tickets-16074954622 2.https://www.indiegogo.com/campaigns/suicide-explosive-prevention-proposal-for-young/edit/#/ 3.

Having very clear indicator of the over seventy percent percentage probability to strike more viable oil and gas according to Oil exploring companies, the people of Kerio Valley in Rift Valley because of lack of clear background knowledge on the potential conflict causes in the current conflict oil producing nations and its similarities to the underlying issues they are now raising that are greatest and probable contributors to fueling conflict in coming days is our great concern. The gross violations of the rights of the marginalized and poor communities are currently taking shape in so many forms. The violations include: Denial of equitable access to socio-economic Justice and benefits It is several decades that the people along kerio valley have been left deliberately by past government regimes from acquiring ownership of land and more in the indecent assault of their dignity by declaring their land wild life zones areas without asking for their consent and input and if any by compromised individuals who are paid to do so. Often the acceptance was out of intimidation and force to the people citing their poverty and inability to voice their rights because of their weakness. All leaders over the years have neglected and acted deaf to all calls to make the people settle rightly at their land of inheritance and let them be consulted and respected in providing lasting solutions. There are allegations and strong believes by the local community that the state was aware since Kenya’s independence of the potential of the Valley and to pave was for scramble by the powerful political correct persons, development was intentionally retarded in these areas because of its vast mineral, oil and gas potential. There was clear understanding of its touristic attractions and thus all avoidance to issue titles was to be time bomb. It is however sad that in places like fluorspar mining, powers took over community land which is now fully and powerfully owned by powerful companies run by powerfully political correct persons. Because of Greed, resources is selfishly harvested or exploited to benefit the most powerful and the mighty few. The community due to the dictatorial systems of Governance found it difficult to bring forth their arguments, demand and rights in fear of punitive action against them. Livelihoods and health is compromised and perpetuated poverty because land value and use is made ancient and unfruitful and dangers to human life have been increasing over years in many forms. Wild life destroy personal property as plant, crops without compensation and actually the people became fully immersed into the wild as wild people and wild life. The Trent recently repeated when oil explored traversed personal property without adequately compensating or failing to totally compensate which is a copy of the historical trend the community is subsequently subjected to. Currently, under the openings in the new constitution, the people still are not aware of all avenues to access Justice and redress and if aware are less equipped with understanding of political, legal and social cultural approaches that are in line with the fundamental constitutional rights both national and international laws. As a civil society organization, support to carry out clear sensitization, awareness and support clear possible legally acceptable documentation is our big concern. We need resources to facilitate our efforts and our mandate to help the people seek soci economic Justice from the government and all existing systems. The Freedom of expression, Right to Protection by state, right to earn a decent living etc remain a futile dream if the communities right to air their views, to be heard and to be protected by the state is not respected. I am making my valid point that without organizations having interest on this cause will be a big loss and a backward move in the civil society sphere. It is a plea to all supporting bodies to reduce their bureaucratic channels and high level critiquing on proposal and check on our call on point of reason to avoid academic write ups in future that will never solve any problem that are currently underway that only require mitigation measures that are clear focused into future conflict avoidance by creating long term solutions now. I make this plea simple and all those concerned and would like to support right processes by the state and all actors to come in aid of all communities who have their voices weakened by powerful systems.

| Miss | Merwa Abdelkader | Saudi Arabia | Education | Jeddah | Human rights have been violated for years in many centuries and in various communities and cultures. Such violation contributed in building unbalanced societies where individuals were not able to practice their simple rights. In fact, human rights instead should create a platform where tolerance, equality and justice are main concepts and where discrimination, abuse and violence have no place. Education on the other hand is an essential human right for creating a powerful opportunities in terms of jobs creation, ending poverty and enabling individuals to participate with their opinion freely. Individuals have some needs and requirements that fall under specific rights, if such rights are not provided then these needs will not be met. Such issue can create potential possibility for conflicts creation within societies. In order to overcome these conflicts, roots that cause such issues have to be first addressed and held. "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." - Nelson Mandela. Human rights education is not only a weapon, it is also a symbol of light for guiding people regardless of their age, religion, gender or ethnicity; to know their rights and defend these violated ones. It plants the sense of responsibility towards the individuals and serves the public interest. The 26th universal declaration of human rights states that everyone has the right to be educated and education shall be accessed free for everyone. Such education enables humanity to create a culture where human rights are the main concerns and it involves values and skills to promote human right protection. These concepts and values that are held formally under education could be transferred further to be considered first informally among individuals within the societies and later institutionalized and taken for granted on daily bases. Education in general is seen as one of the main human rights. One of the Millennium Goals is to achieve universal primary education, and to insure that by this year “2015” children everywhere and specifically in South Asia and Africa will be able to complete a full course of primary schooling. Since MDGs were lunched in many developing countries, they have successfully completed campaigns towards universal primary education. By recognizing the importance of human rights education there has been a great progress and promising future for the generation. As a result, when society’s individuals are aware of their rights they will be responsible and active participants in their societies which will drive them to avoid violence and discrimination. Moreover, to live in a harmony while respecting other rights as the way they want their rights to be respected. | marwa.alamer@gmail.com | No | 100 - 1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | U.S.-Saudi Women's Forum on Social Entrepreneurship | School | Yes | ||||||||

According to Kisii Trade Executive Mr Samuel Osoro Mogeni,an Indian investor will set up the Sh20 billion sugar firm at Nyangweta in South Mugirango.The sugar factory will be a boost to the sugarcane dependent region,which has been struggling due to poor prices and cheap imports that stifles sugarcane sector development. Mr Mogeni said more than 60 acres have already been identified and investors have started construction work.The factory is likely to directly employ at least 600 employees and hundreds of others indirectly as the county moves to address rising unemployment levels in an averagely populated County.The youth constitute a sizable critical component of the unemployed."Already machines have been shipped in from India and will be hauled to the construction site in the next few weeks" Mr Mogeni said.Early in the week,the County minister led a high-powered committee on investments to inspect the site."I can assure,we are through with mapping works,beacons have been erected and everything is rolling on well according to plan," he said. | jamesomwega2008@yahoo.com | Yes | >1000 | High e.g. Most of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | Indian Investors | Sub County Governments | County Governments | The National Treasury and Relevant Governement Agencies. | Yes | |||||

It will also make port management more efficient. Container traffic has been on the rise recently with the volume handled at the port tripling over the past decade from 300,000 TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units)in 2002 to 1 million TEUs in 2014,with a projection of more than 2.6 million TEUs in 2005. JICA is now implementing Mombasa Port Development Project,phase1 under an ODA loan to construct a new container terminal expected to be completed by march 2016. Advanced Japanese Technology and management methods will be applied to the project (phase 2) as well as phase 1.Because the foundation where the terminal is being built is soft,there are difficulties in construction which will be addressed using special steel materials and ground engineering,outstanding technologies of Japan. In addition to the port development,there are other projects that JICA is supporting in Mombasa area.The construction of Dongo Kundu Bypass/Bridge and the study of SEZ master plan are now on-going.Revision of Mombasa port master plan is also being carried out,which will see a comprehensive port investment plan including the Freeport at Dongo Kundu area.Japan has just started the Assistance to support Mombasa County to formulate a City-wide urban master plan on the Northern Corridor.All these projects are critical and complementary to each other.At the 5th Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD V), the Government of Japan set "Accelerating Infrastructure and Capacity Development" as a prioritized agenda,and is focusing on corridor development to contribute to economic and industrial development of the the continent.These projects will support the function of the gateway port to the hinterland landlocked countries,linked by the Northern Corridor,as well as Kenya itself.It is hoped that these projects will contribute to the social and economic development of Kenya and the region at large and we are looking forward that the Government of Kenya will host TCAD VI soon to promote our cooperation and friendship further. | jamesomwega2008@yahoo.com | Yes | >1000 | High e.g. Most of the populations in the village go to school | Good: Previous action, guidance, engagement and mobilization | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | JICA - Japan International Cooperation Agency | SSub County Governments | County Governments | The National Treasury and Relevant Governement Agencies. | Yes | |||||

Construction of roads using cheap technology from Malasyia has started in Meru County.While a kilometer costs Sh 70 million to tarmac at the current market rates,Probase Standard technology reduces the cost to Sh 30 million.The Malasyian Government will give the County a Sh880 million loan to fund the construction.A 10 kilometer pilot project is complete and won President Uhuru Kenyatta's praises when toured the Meru County.Meru aims to tarmac 300 kilometers using the technology.Of the 4,000 kilometer road network in Meru,only 550 kilometers are tarmacked.President Kenyatta witnessed Kianjai-Miathene-Mikunduri road being tarmacked using the technology.The tchnology,launched in 1998,is currently being used in 13 countries in the world,including Uganda.Governor Peter Munya,his roads executive Newton Itobi and Probase Manufacturing SDN Company boss Seow Cheng soon will meet President Kenyatta to explore the possibility of spreading the technology to other parts of the country."The President requested we meet him to share more details technology," Mr Itobi told the Nation.Unlike the normal road construction where two lawyers of road are paved,the new one layer is compressed until no water can penetrate."The pavement structure is improved to between 150mm-200mm which reduces costs by three times,"Mr Itobi said. The county is waiting for the President's approval before it can get the loan from Malasyia's Exim Bank to construct 250 kilometers."The President inquired about the lifespan of the road,its defect liabilities and bearing capacity and was impressed,"Mr Itobi said.Mr Munya said the development of an extensive road system is at the heart of his development agenda."My government is banking on major constructions,especially roads for employment of hundreds of jobless youth,"Mr Munya said. | kagendomedrine1@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | High e.g. Most of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | Malasyia Government Exim Bank of Malasyia | Sub County Governments | County Governments | The National Treasury and Relevant Governement Agencies. | Yes | |||||
| Mr | Onward Chironda | My Age | Zimbabwe | Health | Masvingo | Child marriage is a major development threat in the lives of girls and young women worldwide. It fuels adolescent pregnancy, forces girls out of school and perpetuates a recurrence of poverty through disempowering girls and impairing their economic resilience. Today one out of nine girls is forced into marriage before age 15 worldwide and births to girls under age 15 are projected to nearly double in Sub-Saharan Africa in the next 17 years, from 2 million a year today to about 3 million a year in 2030. This projection is set to be a reality in the next few decades unless adequate actions are taken to address practices that drive adolescent pregnancies, particularly child marriage. Zimbabwe has a dual legal system that allows for child marriage in customary law and yet speaks against it in statutory law. This duality has caused disproportionally high rates of child marriage in rural areas and corresponding high rates of teenage pregnancy. Child marriage persists in rural areas chiefly because of prevailing religious and cultural norms that allow it to take place as an acceptable practice. These norms include arranged marriages, pledging girls to families to appease ancestral spirits, and poverty driven trade-offs in which girls are sold off in marriage by poor families in exchange for livestock and money. Child marriage will continue legally in Zimbabwe under customary law if action is not taken from traditional leaders who judge and enforce laws in the rural areas. An analysis carried out by a Zimbabwean research unit on child marriage, identified that governments are often either unable to enforce existing laws, or rectify discrepancies between national laws on marriage age and entrenched customary and religious laws. This is because of the “official tolerance of cultural, societal, and customary norms that shape and govern the institution of marriage and family life”. This problem is further compounded by the fact that the family is the custodian of culture, and some cultural practices - such as the payment of bride price - often expose the girl child to other harmful cultural practices like child marriage. As a result, the median age of a first marriage in Zimbabwe has been declining from 19 years for women currently aged 45-49 years to 16 years for those aged 15-19 years. Additionally, 32 percent of the women aged 20-49 years old who are currently married or in a union were married before 18 years of age (rural areas 39%, and urban areas 21%). Consequently, the adolescent fertility rate has increased to 115 births per 1,000 women aged 15-19 years - up from 99 in 2005/6. Rural teenagers, those with less education, and those from the poorest sections of society, tend to start childbearing earlier than their urban, educated, wealthier counterparts. | myagezimbabwe@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgOuiP0QjVE, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hV9cq0jd6Cw | Insufficient mobilization of funds | n/a | Moreblessing Mavhika | Nyasha Sithole | Onward Chironda | NO | Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/yedu4development/ | |||

We organise gathering of people and inculcate into them unadulterated informed education, most especially the upcoming youth on how to make insightful right choices, psyching them through the dividends of their thinking to uphold on themselves commitment and take responsibilities of their own reactional choices and positive attitude towards the road of making effective change in order to help themselves and other people around to benefit so as to erode the sense of poverty in and around our deprived communities in Ghana. We organized seminars’ and counselling session for business entities as well as corporate and governmental and non-governmental institutions and individuals who are passionate about touching lives through informed education. The concept of our initiative is to the optimum fact that, most of Our up-coming youth in the rural communities are much equipped with talents, but due to the lack of adequate resources and help, they rather give up and render their lives to alcoholism, smoking, stealing from people`s farms and at the verge of indulging themselves into pre-marital sex, increasing productivity and its risk before their respective given time. These abnormality changes begin right after they’ve noticed that they couldn’t make it through school because of: 1. Financial constrains 2. Less knowledge in academics 3. Lack of parental guidance 4. The hostility of their living environs However, there are some crucial areas in their lives which perhaps could be assisted to be developed. And with our feasibility study and some interviews of most young and old of our rural communities, expressed their concerns and which subjected to the fact that sports is the most adhere virtue of their youth which needs to be looked at because most of these young ones are very talented to play but since there is no further assistance and help, they rather entreat themselves into hostiles lifestyles such as: 1. Smoking 3. Pre-marital Sex 2. Excessive taking of alcohol 4. Stealing and other disloyal attitudes 5. Domestic violence And if proper care is not taken to prevent these habits, we therefore endanger our lives and the nation at large when these sorted habits developed. All these negative deeds contribute to the downfall of a nation which must critically be observed and prevented. This could be done by helping to develop the potential attributes of these young ones by showing interest into their capabilities. And with this document, we are seeking for an assistance and partnership with you to help educate, informed and to develop their God given potentials which one way or the other is dying in them because of the lack of requisite nurturing and assistance.

| Mr | Joanes toulac Jang | Child Aid Development Foundation International | Cameroon | Education | Santa, Bamenda | Livelihood of the people in Santa is based on agricultural production under the subsistence farming system. By the year 1980s, the area’s economy was based on coffee production which was affected by the coffee wilt and dissolved completely and this problem contributed a lot towards the economic backwardness of the community and parents therefore, become chronically poor and passive. Many people in the area have been strongly infected /affected by the HIV/AIDS and other diseases like Malaria. As a result of the pandemic, a big number of children are orphans mainly with care givers who mostly cannot provide them with the basic school requirements. The school has outdated classroom block which was constructed and the roofs is currently leaking heavily and the walls with cracks possess serious risk to the lives of the boys and girls. This block accommodates four classrooms and during rainy season, classes are conducted under tree shade or the nearby Church which is also too old. This building in its current condition is not a healthy environment for learning and requires immediate attention to save the boys and girl’s life and this provides a good learning environment. The poor learning environment with; Lack of enough improved classrooms, Lack of good latrine for boys, Lack of bathrooms especially the girl child, Lack of adequate seating facility and other has led to reduction in the number of children and hence growth in school drop out . The low incomes due to the existing HIV/AIDs infections and crop diseases, very few parents/care givers can afford the fulfillment of School requirements and to solicit funds for school’s improvement and therefore, the existing outdated classroom block and failure of the parents and community to put in place other important structures, contributes a lot towards the dropouts of children, main in upper classes and again, the situation is very dangerous for the young people who come for learning. Therefore, there is a greater need for financial support to construct new permanent structures in order to improve the School’s learning environment and to avoid the risks. This project attempts to address the situation mentioned above, with the overall aim of creating an enabling and conducive quality learning environment to both children and communities. There is therefore, a very urgent need to provide support to the School by constructing new classrooms, a new VIP Latrine and provision of desks to reduce the high ratios and sustaining the boys and girls in school.

| Mr | Bogere Ali | Helping Hands 4 Africa | Uganda | Agriculture & Rural Development | Iganga | Helping hands 4 Africa is a Community Based Initiative that started way back in 2011 with the plight of transforming the disadvantaged livelihoods in eastern Uganda live a better life. We are situated in Jinja district, which lies 80kms East of Kampala city, Uganda's capital working with the rural poor communities in our country. Uganda as a developing country is among other problems, afflicted by Civil wars, hunger, economic stagnation, extreme poverty, low literacy levels, and the AIDS pandemic that continues its deadly foray into every village. This calls for innovative actions that are designed and implemented to bring about change. Helping hands 4 Africa is actively pursing this at the grass roots. As development partners, non-governmental organizations are proving to be more effective at grass roots where government hands cannot reach. Helping hands 4 Africa is one of the few grass roots organization based in the Eastern Uganda offering educational, medical and nutritional services to the rural communities as well as helping to facilitate their social, spiritual, Educational and economical well being. We derive our support from the valuable services of volunteers, friends, sympathizers, well-wishers, Christian and non-Christian resources as well as our dear partners in-country and abroad who offer financial, moral, educational and material support to facilitate our activities. The founders of the initiative are much concerned about the increasing poverty levels, high prevalence rate of HIV/Aids, increasing number of orphans without any assistance, high unemployment, lack of respect of human rights and high illiteracy levels within the community. This was realized after carrying out a baseline survey in Bulamagi sub-county as a sample project in August 2007 and the following were realized; Eight-nine out of every 10 homes have been affected by HIV/Aids such as increased number of orphans and family members without any assistance. The most vulnerable and affected are the women and children because of the African family setting yet they are the core of the households, at the centre of hunger, malnutrition, diseases, illiteracy and all other effects of poverty. Four out of every ten of school going age can not attend school even when there is free universal primary and secondary school seemingly because they lack scholastic requirements such as books, uniforms, school fees, meals, etc Even the free universal schools are few, in long distances, congested and poorly facilitated. Most of these disadvantaged livelihoods often fall sick but don’t get proper medical treatment because they cant afford the medical bills in the recommended hospitals/medical centers, which are often in long distances despite the fact that the roads are in poor conditions and the means of transport is expensive. The old going age (Elderly) is also in the centre of poverty, hunger, diseases, malnutrition, and all the other side effects of poverty as they are totally dependants. Four out of every ten homes are single mother/children/widow/grand headed families without any support. Eight out of every ten persons with disabilities (PWDs) are seen as a curse to the community/family, neglected under certain circumstances and even themselves are not aware of their rights as citizens of their mother country. The rate of HIV/Aids tend to increase because of the high poverty levels within the communities for instance young innocent girls are enticed with smaller items like snacks/chapattis in exchange for sex. Even older people going for sex end up going for unprotected sex because they can not afford to buy condoms, ignorant about condom use and the government free aided condoms are poorly distributed. Eight out of every ten youth have lost hope and continued being vulnerable as they are un employed, uneducated, lack life skills, lack capital to set up businesses hence resorting to agriculture which is domestic and un productive due to poor soils, poor markets of their agricultural produce, landless, etc Children’s rights are not properly observed in the rural communities due to ignorance of these rural livelihoods about their rights such as forcing young girls to marry at tender ages. WAY FORWARD We at Helping hands 4 Africa have realized the need to mitigate the social, economical and political causes of their vulnerabilities, so as to enable them live better lives through a way of providing and advocating for proper medical care, better nutrition, basic support, educational support, human rights, spiritual and moral support.

| Mr | James Ombeo Omwega,PHAP | Knowledge For development Without Borders | Kenya | Social Development | Boochi-Kebirichi,Ogembo | Cyber Crime in Kenya - africa Perspective Kenya is experiencing a growing number of cyber crimes that threaten national security, Information, communications and technology infrastructure as well as citizens privacy. The country losing an estimated 2 billion shillings ($23.3 million) annually through cyber crime. What is cyber crime? Cyber crime is a crime dealing with computers and networks whereby a computer is the subject of the crime e.g hacking or used as a tool to commit offense e.g child pornography. Cyber terrorism. Cyber terrorism is defined as a politically motivated crime. The government’s inability to protect vital systems makes the internet a battlefield. Cyber space. This is the domain generated from the interconnection between the computers and telecommunication networks in order to store modify and exchange data via networked systems and associated physical infrastructures without regard to physical geography. Cyber security. Cyber refers to the technologies and processes designed to protect computer networks and data from unauthorized access, vulnerabilities and attacks delivered via the internet by cyber criminals. Cyber bullying. Cyber bullying is the use of electronic communication to bully a person typically by sending messages of an intimidating or threatening nature. Cyber criminal. A cyber criminal is an individual who commits cyber crimes, where he/she makes use of the computer either as a tool or as a target or as both. Types of Cyber Crimes. There are many types of cyber crimes, some of them include; Hacking: This is a type of crime where a person’s computer is broken into so that his/her personal or sensitive information can be accessed. In this case the criminal uses a variety of software to enter a person’s computer and the person may not be aware that his/her computer is being accessed from a remote location. Theft: This crime occurs when a person violates the copyright act no.12 of 2001 and downloads music, movies, games and software on the internet. Cyber Stalking: This is a kind of online harassment where the victim is subjected to a barrage of online messages and emails. Typically, these stalkers know their victims and instead of resorting to offline stalking, they use the Internet to stalk. Identity Theft: This has become a major problem with people using the Internet for cash transactions and banking services.A criminal accesses data about a person’s bank account, credit cards, Social media, debit card and other sensitive information to siphon money or to buy things online in the victim’s name. Malicious Software: These are Internet-based software or programs that are used to disrupt a network. The software is used to gain access to a system to steal sensitive information or data or causing damage to software present in the system. Child pornography and abuse: This is a type of cyber crime where cyber criminals solicit minors via chat rooms on various social media networks for the purpose of child pornography. Causes of Cyber Crime When the rate of return on investment is high and the risk is low, you are bound to find people willing to take advantage of the situation. This is exactly what happens in cyber crimes thus accessing sensitive information and data and using it means a rich harvest of returns and catching these cyber criminals becomes difficult. This has led to a rise in cyber crimes in Kenya and the rest of the world as well. History of Cyber Crime When computers and networks came into being in the 1990s, hacking was done basically to get more information about the systems. Hackers even competed against one another to win the tag of the best hacker. As a result, many networks were affected; right from the military to commercial organizations. Initially, these hacking attempts were brushed off as mere nuisance as they did not pose a long-term threat. However, with malicious software being used a lot during the same period, hacking started making networks and systems slow. As hackers became more skillful, they started using their knowledge and expertise to gain benefit by exploiting and victimizing others. Cyber Crime in Modern Society. Today, cyber criminals that indulge in cyber crimes are not driven by ego or expertise. Instead, they want to use their knowledge to gain benefits quickly. They are using their expertise to steal, deceive and exploit people as they find it easy to earn money without having to do an honest day’s work. Cyber crimes have become a real threat today and are quite different from old-school crimes, such as robbing, mugging or stealing. Unlike these crimes, cyber crimes can be committed single handedly and does not require the physical presence of the criminals. The same systems that have made it easier for people to conduct e-commerce and online transactions are now being exploited by these criminals. The attacks are sometimes a combination if amateurs and seasoned hackers who might just be doing it for fun, to prove a point or with a criminal intent. Categories of Cyber Crime. Cyber crimes are broadly categorized into three categories, namely crime against 1. Individual 2. Property 3. Government Each category can use a variety of methods and the methods used vary from one criminal to another. Individual: This type of cyber crime can be in the form of cyber stalking, distributing pornography, trafficking and identity theft. Property: In this case, they can steal a person’s bank details and steal money to make numerous purchases online, set up a scam to get people to part with their hard earned money, use malicious software to gain access to an organization’s website or disrupt the systems of the organization. Government: Although not as common as the other two categories, crimes against a government is also referred to as cyber terrorism In this category, criminals hack government websites, military websites or circulate propaganda. The perpetrators can be terrorist outfits or unfriendly governments of other nations. How to Tackle Cyber Crime. Cyber criminals tend to work together to improve their skills and even help out each other with new opportunities. Hence, the usual methods of fighting crime cannot be used against cyber criminals. Efforts to arrest and prosecute suspects are being hampered by lack of effective laws and the methods used by cyber criminals and technology keeps changing too quickly. The Kenyan government and firms should therefore keep up with the current technologies and incorporate them in the fight against cyber crime. | jamesomwega2008@yahoo.com | Yes | >1000 | High e.g. Most of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | Government of Kenya - The National Treasury and Parent Ministry of Information,Communication and Technology | Sub County Government | County Government | The National treasury and Ministry of Information,Communication and Technology | Yes | |||||

The mobile banking system was targeted by the cybercrime gang, say police. Photograph: Bloomberg/Bloomberg via Getty Images Agence France-Presse in Nairobi Friday 5 December 2014 08.23 GMTLast modified on Friday 5 December 201409.04 GMT Kenyan police have arrested 77 Chinese nationals on suspicion of running a cybercrime centre from homes in an upmarket area of the capital, Nairobi. Officers believe the gang had been preparing to hack the country’s communication systems. The Daily Nation newspaper said equipment capable of infiltrating bank accounts, Kenya’s M-Pesa mobile banking system and cash machines were discovered after a series of raids. “The suspects are being interrogated to establish their mission in the country and what they wanted to do with the communication gadgets. They have been charged in court,” said the director of Kenya’s criminal investigation department, Ndegwa Muhoro. “We want to do a thorough investigation over the matter and we are currently working on their travel documents,” added police spokeswoman Zipporah Mboroki. Police said many of those detained appear to have been in the country illegally. A detective close to the case said the raids were triggered by a police investigation into a house fire in which one person died. The source said the charges levelled against the 77 include “being in the country illegally and operating radio equipment” without the necessary permits. According to the national Standard newspaper, the Chinese nationals were living in military-style dormitories. Kenya’s foreign minister, Amina Mohamed, “made it clear that the Chinese government should fully cooperate on this matter”, the communications minister, Fred Matiang’i, said. “China promised to send investigators to work with ours on this matter.” China’s ambassador Kenya has been summoned to explain if his government was aware of the group’s activities. The Standard said preliminary investigations had revealed that the group was making microchips for ATM cards, and that it also “ran a command centre whose activities are yet to be established”. The homes were reportedly in the northern Nairobi suburb of Runda, close to Gigiri, an area that is home to the UN headquarters, US embassy and other political organisations. The affair is a rare sign of tension wtih China, a major investor in Kenya’s infrastructure and communications networks.

| Mr | James Ombeo Omwega,PHAP | Knowledge For Development Without Borders | Kenya | Environment | Kebirichi,Boochi, Ogembo Township | IBM’S APP TO HELP NAIROBI CLEAR GARBAGE: System will collect data of the five million residents in the city, map garbage collection routes and connect them to a mobile application that is monitored from central server. A tech firm has designed a solid waste management system to help solve Nairobi’s mounting garbage menace. The IBM Research Africa project could be launched in a year, as the city steps up garbage collection programme that costs an estimated Sh1 billion per month. IBM researchers will collect data of the five million residents in Nairobi County, map garbage collection routes and connect them to mobile application monitored from a main office server. “This signifies how IBM as an American Company is investing big in Africa with a focus on enterprise and job creation. The sectors we are assisting in the country are transport, technology and agriculture” said IBM Research Africa Vice-President Dr Kamal Bhattacharya. Before embarking on the project, IBM conducted a research that revealed Nairobi as one of the most congested cities in the world. This is partly the reason why garbage collection has been headache to the county. The county government data shows that over five million people live in Nairobi currently. Nairobi County Executive Committee Member for Environment Evans ondieki,who is playing a key role in the roll-out of the new garbage collection plan, says the initiative will give the city a new, gleaming face. “Our plan is to attract foreign direct investments through a clean, well organized city that knows how to manage solid waste and has proper planning” said Mr Ondieki. An effort to organize the city’s garbage collection in 2010 through Japan International Cooperation Agency (Jica) funding failed. Jica, through the county survey, cited insufficient funds for the city’s failure t implement the clean-up plan. The agency also stresses the need for a legal framework for the public-private partnership investments. Jica outlined what must be done to make Nairobi “as neat and functional as other global capitals” | jamesomwega2008@yahoo.com | Yes | >1000 | High e.g. Most of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | IBM Research Africa | Sub County Governments | County Gvernments | The Treasury and Ministry of Devolution and Planning | Yes | |||||
| Mr | James Ombeo Omwega,PHAP | Knowledge For Development Without Borders | Kenya | Science & Technology | K | TOUGH NEW RULES FORCE ALL INTERNET USERS TO LIST THEIR GADGETS: Kenyans using Wi-Fi to connect to the Internet in public places will be required to register their mobile devices with the Kenya Network Information Center (Kenic), under new rules aimed at fighting cybercrime. The customers will be required to provide their telephone numbers and identity card details, which can be used to track them down should they use their gadgets to commit cybercrimes such as fraud or hacking websites. The gadgets that must be registered include laptops, mobile phones, iPads, e-readers and any other devices that can be used at a public Wi-Fi hot spot such as hotels and restaurants. This implies that addition to registering the SIM cards in the gadgets with either safaricom, Airtel or Telkom Kenya, people who use Wi-Fi will be required to register their devices at the point where they access the Internet, be it in hotels, restaurants, offices and public transport vehicles. The director-general of the Communications Authority of Kenya, Mr Francis Wanguisi, gave the new directive after taking over as the new chairman of Association of Regulators of Information and communications for Eastern and Southern Africa (Aricea), the organization mandated to fight cybercrime with the Comesa region. “We will license Kenic to register device owners using their national identity cards and telephone numbers, the identity of a device will be known when it connects to Wi-Fi” Mr Wangusi said at the annual general meeting held in Nairobi. Failure by any establishment to adhere to the rules will compel Kenic to withdraw the Wi-Fi services used by the defaulting institutions.”In case a crime is committed, we will then be able to trace people using national identity cards that were registered and their phone numbers keyed in during registration” said Mr Wangusi. The Communications Authority is also setting up a forensic laboratory to detect and neutralize impending cyber attacks. Mr Wangusi said the authority will conduct a detailed study on the extent of web hackings in Kenya. According to him, cybercattacks were on the rise, with the banking sector being the biggest victim followed by government institutions. The new rules will also require all Kenyan companies to host their websites in the country rather than outside. This would help avoid extra costs associated with sending data out to a different location and back again to the website owner. Dr Abu Dafalla, the Comesa Director for Infrastructure, said that Kenya now leads in pushing the cybercrime agenda in the region. “Criminals are carrying out illegal activities on the web and we must protect the region even as we focus on trade. A secure cyberspace will retain revenue loss. Credit card fraud alone is estimated at $37 billion annually in the region” he said. Mrs. Devi Chand, the outgoing Africea chairman, said the proposed regulations will ensure reliable, affordable and effective Internet services within the 19 Comesa countries. | jamesomwega2008@yahoo.com | Yes | >1000 | High e.g. Most of the populations in the village go to school | Good: Previous action, guidance, engagement and mobilization | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | COMESA MEMBER COUNTRIES COMMUNICATION AUTHORITY OF KENYA | Sub County Governments | County Gvernments | The Treasury and Ministry of Information Communicatin and Technology | Yes | |||||

| Other | RAPHAEL OWUSU | EZONE AFRICA | GHANA | Humanitarian Aid | BOSOMTWE DISTRICT(KUNTENASE--ONWI) | Our continent has a youthful population and it is estimated that Africa will have the world’s leading population according to statistics. However, despite the exponential increase, we are yet to witness actions and policies that will cope with the projected situation. Thus if much is not directed to equipping these youth with the needed skills and training at organisational, societal and national levels, its consequences on society could not be quenched. Ezone Africa-ghana is a non-government organization that promotes youth development through Sports using soccer/athletics as the vehicle to raise awareness of the powerful role that sports can play in the lives of youth with deprived communities as our focus. We organise gatherings and inculcate into teenagers and young adults unadulterated informed education, on how to make insightful choices, psyching them through positive thinking to embrace challenges and take responsible choices in pursuit of necessary change for individual and societal good. The concept of our initiative is to the optimum fact that, most of our up-coming youth in the rural communities are much equipped with talents, but due to the lack of adequate resources, support and guidance, they rather give up and render their lives to alcoholism, smoking, stealing and all forms of social vices that mar their promising future which, in the long run poses a burden and threat to their families, communities and nation on to the continent at large. Through no fault of theirs, we have realised that they resort to such vices when they are unable to climb further the academic ladder owning to but not limited to: 1. Financial constraints 2. Poor academic performance 3. Poor parental care and guidance 4. Unavailability of mentorship programs 5. Hostility of living environment In our interactions and survey, we realised that great talents abound in these deprived communities. Our impression and information gathered was that sports is a powerful tool to organize, mentor and train the future leaders who otherwise would not be inspired and guided to unleash their potentials with slimmer chances of breaking this undesired vicious cycle. We engage the hearts and minds of the youth with active sports not only to make them fit but create a platform where they could envisage a better future and reach for them while having fun in the process because we are aware the devil finds work for the idle hands. OUR VISION • To become a social enterprise committed to equipping the youth in deprived communities practical skills through sports and IT to be responsible future leaders • To provide basic education for street kids and youth. • To provide equal opportunity for both educated and non-educated children and youth. • To provide humanitarian services to deprived and slum communities. • To render support to help the poor and to reduce the extreme poverty through self-help projects and skills training. OUR MISSION • We exist to engage the hearts and minds of the youth while having fun • To reduce unemployment, eradicate child mortality, school drop-outs, street children and child trafficking in the communities. • To use all means to improve the environment to be habitable by all. • To educate and challenge the youth on how to learn and teach others on most positive notes and pursue entrepreneurship OUR AIM AND OBJECTIVES • To discover and develop young energetic youth right from school while giving them the needed exposure to grow and build useful talents and partnership. • To encourage creativity, interpersonal skills and knowledge in young adults. • To promote vibrant peer entrepreneurial networks to encourage synergy and cross fertilization of ideas. • To reduce incidence of school drop outs, streetism, child trafficking and youth unemployment in our communities. • To bring together mentors and mentees (our students) to share experience and urge them on to greater heights. • To educate and challenge the youth on how to learn and inspire others. • To help educate and train up physically challenged youth on both technical and vocational skills to be productive. • Eroding the philosophy of incapability and promote the moral of “I CAN DO SPIRIT” in the lives of the people in deprived communities. OUR TARGET GROUP AND OPERATIONAL AREAS Our substantial focus leis relatively to support the less privileged youth within our rural communities in Ghana. Oftentimes youth from these communities frequent the urban cities in search of non existing jobs where they engage in societal vices to make ends meet. We shall focus on persons between the ages of twelve to nineteen {12-19} as that is a crucial time in transition process. We shall work in communities that fall under the district level as those areas mostly lack amenities and infrastructure to excite the youth and provide them the needed platform to exhibit what they can do to help themselves and their district or communities. The Bosomtwe District where we have first worked and have established a sorting academy consists of fifty-Six {56} towns and villages in its` surrounding borders and our project of services extended to all without leaving any and with no prejudices. ACTIVITIES and FORM In line with our vision and object of our existence, our team will engage the youth with active and popular sports and teach hands on IT training. Where necessary we will work with other entrepreneurs and institutions in the field of vocational and technical training that will make the youth job creators other than job seekers. Since we have already advanced strategies into such a project pertaining to this kind, we have the qualified knowledge of how to organise and to maintain progress right from start to the finishing line productively. Working with a team of competent and knowledgeable persons, we therefore leave no pace for lapses. We work to product absolute result within a giving time in accordance to plans without delay. This project aims to establish SOCCER ACADEMIES / RECREATIONAL CENTRES at every district in Ghana. We use sports to touch lives and educate the upcoming youth on these areas: • Career Guidance/Life Choices • Entrepreneurship and Skills Training • Adolescence And Dealing With Its Related Issues • Domestic violence • Moral Rights Of A Citizen • Leadership Training | ezoneafrica.org@gmail.com | Yes | 100 - 1000 | Low e.g. None of the populations in the village go to school, Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | http://www.youtube.com,bosomtwe socceracademy | Insufficient mobilization of funds | EZONE AFRICA BOSOMTWE UNION OF TERTIARY GRADUATE STUDENTS(BUTGS) | Mrs.AGEI(DCE) | district chief executive(dce) | Ministry of youth and sports/ministry of rural developement | Yes | http://www.ezoneafrica.org | |||

| Mr | James Ombeo Omwega,PHAP | Knowledge For Development Without Borders | Kenya | Social Development | Kebirichi,Boochi, Ogembo Township | NAIROBI, Kenya, September, 28th 2015 Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) are now urging world leaders to commit themselves in implementing the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) launched in New York on Saturday. They specifically urged states and governments to implement the new Global Goals which seek to end poverty, inequality and tackle climate change. “The world is getting better. In 1990, almost 13 million children died, almost all of them from preventable causes. This number has dropped by more than half. And the rate of improvement is actually increasing. In Sub Saharan Africa, for example, child mortality is going down five times faster now than it was 20 years ago, “Melinda Gates, Co-Chair of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation said ahead of the summit that adopted the SDGs in New York. “One reason for this progress is that the MDGs helped align the world behind a few key priorities. The SDGs are our best chance to build on this momentum and help the poorest keep building better futures,” she added. In Kenya, Save the Children Campaign Manager Bill Kembo urged ordinary people to also come forward in supporting their governments address poverty. According to Kembo only through commitment to implement that the 17 SDGs that will benefit people. “We all came together to LightTheWay and call on leaders to turn the Goals from words on paper into real change. To do this, world leaders must make bold commitments at the UNGA to implement the Goals” added Kembo. Meanwhile, the Global Compact Network Kenya has commended UN General Assembly for adopting the 17 SDGs that now replaces MDGs. “The global goals will provide a powerful aspiration for improving our world laying out where we collectively need to go and how to get there.” said Network Representative and KAM Chief Executive, Phyllis Wakiaga. In her view the 17 goals have encapsulated an important framework that will address poverty, inequality, injustice and the protection of the planet over the next 15 years. “The Global Compact Kenya is dedicated to translating the SDGs for businesses locally and helping companies understand how they can leverage these goals to drive good practices and growth opportunities,” she added. She further emphasized on the need for an inclusive approach which engages private sector players closely to ensure a comprehensive approach that will support implementation of the 17 goals | jamesomwega2008@yahoo.com | Yes | >1000 | High e.g. Most of the populations in the village go to school | Good: Previous action, guidance, engagement and mobilization | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | NGOs | Sub County Governments | County Gvernments | The Treasury and Ministry of Devolution and Planning | Yes | |||||

| Mr | Willie Sirleaf | UNOKLAYA | Liberia | Health | Town | Klay in Klay District, Bomi County in Western Liberia remains the only District Headquarters without a medical facility. With a population 23,397 people Klay District holds the second largest population in Bomi county. There are not more than 2 health clinics in this District and are far from the District Headquarters which is centrally located. Also, Klay host a major intersection linking Liberia to Sierra and a major travel route. In 2014, some Ebola cases were noticed in Klay at the security check point but referral had to be made to the only Government Hospital in Tubmanburg, Bomi County. To have such a great population center without a Health center in close proximity needs the concern of every humanitarian. Klay actually needs a fully serviceable health center that will address the health needs of its population and travelers. | klaytboy@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Not available due to internet connectivity | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | No Donor commitment at this point | Boima Gbelly | Boima Zinnah | Weata Anderson Bogar | Yes | Not available | |||

| Mr | Ntomnifor Richard Fru | Organization for Community Tourism and Nature Conservation ( OCOTONAP) | Cameroon | Environment | Village, settlement and town | The development goals around the Mankon Sacred Forest encompass contributing towards environmental conservation and the sustainable management of forest (natural) resources for the improvement of livelihoods. The Mankon Sacred Forest is the largest Sacred Forest in the North West Region of Cameroon. Located in the neighborhood of the fast growing Bamenda City Council, the threatened forest plays a vital role in preserving and enhancing natural carbon sink in this urban area thereby offering a great opportunity to increase carbon sequestration and mitigate against climate change on land. Further, the Mankon Sacred Forest Reserve which is one of the last patches of Sub-montane forests in the Bamenda Highlands area (North West Region) of Cameroon and one of the WWF identified biodiversity hotspots, functions as a watershed and a tourist attraction. It is very vital for nature tourism and bird watching. In a rapid ecological baseline monitoring survey carried out in 2006 by the Netherlands Development Organization (SNV), 112 bird species (12 of them endemic) were identified alongside 103 plant species. This is an indication that the forest is rich in biodiversity and ecotourism potentials. The forest has in recent years experienced a lot of habitat fragmentation and massive deforestation resulting to reduction in the size of the forest, soil erosion, land degradation and the destruction of biodiversity. This has also led to shortage in water supply for agriculture, household use, livestock rearing, scarcity in Non -Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) and acute poverty. The watershed found in the forest no longer provides enough water for market gardening and living organisms it harbors such as frogs, tortoise, snails and fishes. Besides, there exist no projects in this forest area to take care of community needs (water, fuel wood, NTFPs etc) hence the rationale for this project. It is also difficult to have a simple management plan (SMP) of the forest because the exact size of this forest is not known let alone its conservation status. More over land use management is not also possible, that is why the population is encroaching into the forest without control. As a means to protect the forest, conserve biodiversity and promote ecotourism, we intend to carry out mapping, complete inventory of birds and plant species in the forest and reforest most of the deforested area. Equally, empowering the surrounding population with modern farming techniques and renewable energy uses. | ocotonap@yahoo.con | Yes | 100 - 1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | Organization for Community Tourism and Nature Protection | Mr. Ntomnifor Richard Fru, Executive Director, OCOTONAP | Ministry of Forestry and Wildlife | NO | http://www.mankonkingdom.org and http://www.facebook.com/ocotonap | |||||
| Miss | Eva Ndamono Shitaatala | Namibia | Health | Windhoek | The Namibian’s public health system, in particular, the environmental health service delivery, is characterized by a limited evidence on the impact of environmental health-related services on the reduction of diseases attributable to environmental exposure. This is mainly because the country’s environmental health systems are paper-based, which limits the opportunity for trend analysis from service related data. As results limiting the link of environmental health related services to the country disease burden and the geographical pattern of enterprise compliance. . Apart from a limited access to public hygiene related enforcement records, evidence on the business owner’s level of awareness and understanding of statutory requirements affecting business operations is also limited. However, the current status of hygiene and increased trends of occupational injuries reported in local media suggest a gross level of negligence. Which is further exacerbated by limited inspection coverage at the country level. The situation is further aggravated by a lack of clear enforcement strategies, technical guidance notes for environmental health professionals as well as by an outdated public health legislation, and a legal system that does not support the enforcement of public health legislation. | evene38@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | none | Local authorities, SMEs, and Justice | Yes | ||||||||

| Mr | ATABONGLEFAC CLAUDE | LEWOH STUDENT ASSOCIATION BUEA | Cameroon | Humanitarian Aid | BUEA | Fast forward to the current crisis, and the “Anglophone problem” resurged in October 2016 when lawyers went on a strike in an effort to force the government to stop appointing Francophone magistrates who spoke no English and had no training in common law to preside over courts in the Anglophone regions. While the march mobilised by the lawyers was peaceful, police forces violently dispersed the crowd, and manhandled some lawyers. Teachers soon came out in support of the lawyers, and university students joined the rallies leading to violent clashes with police and army as the government’s response was to militarise the region. The current crisis has increased support for a return to the 1961 federation and power-sharing agreement among the Anglophone population, and reinforced support for secessionism among others. In light of the past October elections, President Paul Biya, who is 85 and in power since 1982, has to contend with the need for change that is sweeping across the nation. It is difficult to imagine a credible dialogue to calm the tensions unless the government takes conciliatory measures, unlike before, and sets out institutional reforms that decentralise the country. Also a firmer response from the international community, such as the African Union, could help to avoid the conflict from deteriorating into Africa’s next civil war. The crisis has revealed the gap between the concerns of the Anglophone and Francophone population, as well as a disparity between the elites and common folk, especially as Francophones share some Anglophone grievances. | jeanjacquesaten@mail.com | No | >1000 | Low e.g. None of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | https://youtu.be/ct_SLnAGDuM | Lack of Action | Lewoh students Association Buea | Atabonglefac Claude | Nkenglefac Dorette | Jean Jacques ATENCHONG | Yes | ||||

| Mr | Obi Peter Daniel Onyeigwe | Youths for Peace Building& Development in AFrica ( YOUPEDA) | Nigeria | Agriculture & Rural Development | Ebba and Badna Village | Nigeria under democratic rule has witnessed repeated sullen and weak successes and breakdowns in governance structures, systems and institutions due to the prolonged lack of citizen’s democracy, lack of citizen participation and inequities in resource distribution, contested values and consequent limited sense of national identity, community and nationhood. Following numerous years and journey of democracy and transitional administrations, Nigeria took giant stride towards stability with the re-birth in 1999 of a democratically elected government with the promise of addressing the challenges foreign debts, economic recovery and national development. In rebuilding institutions of governance and promoting democracy, there has been much focus on political party reforms, legislative capacity building and judicial reform, at the expense of programs to promote home- grown or peoples’ centered democracy and participation in governance. Most Nigerians – the majority of whom reside in rural communities and are illiterate – still lack basic knowledge of their rights and responsibilities; unfamiliar with ways of participating actively in decision-making at the local level and holding their elected officials accountable. This includes tens of thousands of marginalized rural youths including women, men and the elderly farmers and traders. Also, there is a general lack of communal feeling and patriotism, as well as adequate understanding of the provisions of the Nigerian constitution. The problem is further compounded by the lack of initiative and/or political will by the government (national, state and local) authorities in stimulating citizens’ participation in local governance. I propose to examine the key Democracy and Human Right question-“How can True Citizens and home-grown Democracy save Nigeria: an alternative to Democratic setbacks” This topic is importantly chosen to put the government and elected leaders on their feet to fulfil the social contract they signed with the citizens. The high level of poverty among the citizens, Hunger, corruption and bribery are serious issues affecting the average citizens who do not have a say in the system of government; because they do not know to engage them (the Government) effectively. Indeed, this topic is important in order to raise a new crop of strong willing voices of the citizens in Nigeria through citizenship empowerment, strengthening of individual, civic engagement with capacity to demand political accountability. A country of over 180 million, my project goals include being the architect of a foray through methodological expertise needed to conduct cutting edge research and investigations that will bring democratic and citizen driven turn around in Nigeria. | dobipeters@yahoo.com | No | >1000 | Low e.g. None of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | https://www.primepost.ng/2019/02/06/nasarawa-community-appeals-for-basic-infrastructure/, https://nnn.com.ng/politics/2019/02/21/badna-community-nasarawa-appeals-for-basic-infrastructure/ | Lack of Guidance | World Faith, NY and YOUPEDA members donations in Nigeria | Maikefi Moses Jonathan | Danjuma Musa and Yakubu Audi | Obi Peter | Yes | http://www.youpeda.org (Being reconstructed) | |||

| Mr | Kodimah Issifu Mahama | Green Harvest Agric Solutions | Ghana | Agriculture & Rural Development | Tumu | Our focus is on the Upper West Region of the country where poverty is widespread. Farmers are exposed to a long period of dry season spanning over 8 months. Most farmers do not earn any income over this period and households are not exposed to dietary diversification thus imposing on them both wealth and health challenges. However, these some of these areas have the resources of land, water and human resource to cultivate crops especially high value crops during this long dry season period. The limiting factor with the other communities is water access for irrigation farming during this long dry season. With a special focus on dry season vegetable cultivation a project that targets primarily subsistence farmers who have access to land and potentially water but little else will make a difference. Typically they are not fully connected to markets and do not have access to quality inputs, and credit. Most of them also lack labour augmenting technologies for lifting and distributing water for irrigation. As a result, they get sub-optimal results with regards to quantity and quality of yields, and farm gate prices are usually not commensurate to their input. Organizing these community members into farmer groups and building their capacities for irrigation farming and marketing will offer them the opportunity to escape the poverty bracket they find themselves in. | kodimah@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | SAVE-GHANA, ACTIONAID GHANA, PLAN GHANA | Area Council, Local NGOs | Sissala East Municipal Assembly | Government of Ghana, Ministry of Agriculture | Yes | http://www.greenharvestagric.com | ||||
| Mr | Ajaga Innocent | Care Community Education Centre (CCEDUC) Child development | Uganda | Education | Odropi, Yumbe | Until recently, the nearly in total 280,000 women and girls both in South Sudanese Refugee settlement and Rural Host community in Yumbe District could not access Education or skill training. Due to gender inequality, according to many forms of customary law and sexual gender based violence (SGBV) women and girls are seen as source of wealth and sexual tool hence denying the rights to Education and skill training. Clearly, basic Human rights were violated, and women and girls were bearing the brunt of those violations. More so, the civil war in South Sudan for women and girls forced them to flee to Uganda, limited their rights and ability to access Education or skill training, further limiting their ability to feed their families. As promising as Education laws are, they are not helping these marginalized women and girls in settlements and Rural Host communities. CCEDUC Child development and the partner Secure Plus need a conceptual frame work as a bases for addressing the provisions of the international rights to Education law and practice.

| Mr | Pradeep Mahapatra | Mr. | India | Humanitarian Aid | Bhubaneswar, Odisha | Pathways to Combat COVID-19 & Beyond COVID-19 & climate crisis both are rapidly producing further disaster to become more complex and deadly. The Indian State of Odisha, considered as one of the backward states in human development index, has been grossly impacted by COVID-19 & recurrent climate crisis. http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/rajan-panel-ranks-odisha-most-backward-state/article5170719.ece The solution lies in prevention followed by protection andprovision – increasing readiness to address thecoronavirus crises andreducing the impacts of future climaterisks & disasters. Looking at COVID-19 and currentvulnerabilities, there is a dire need for short- and long-term actionsto promote sustainable, resilientcommunities that cancope with the forthcoming climate crisis. To enable this, there is an urgent need for more funds to be focused on managing and developing resilience in the face of the COVID-19 and climate change crisis. What could these solutions look like? The followinginterventions are needed now & beyond COVID-19 for returned migrants, stranded labours, women, children, disabilities, wage earners daily labourers, slum dwellers to address hunger, save lives &support the rebuilding of livelihoods. There are three major pathways to make communities resilient now &as we look beyond COVID-19: I) Humanitarian response to support returned migrants, stranded labours on COVID19 Pandemic. Actions include the provision offood & nutrition kits, hygiene kits, school/learning kits for children, preventive/protective kit for front line workers, Agriculture-Kit( Seed/plants & Micro-Nutrient & mineral-Kit ) for farmers with micro-nutrition supplements/ health boosters, setting up call centres andenabling area sanitization by drone. II) Building community assets &promotion of ecosystem-based, climate change resilient, integrated community livelihood models that promote food and water security, sustainable culture and lifestyle, nature, nutrition, hygiene, sanitation, education on environment, circular economy, green energy & sustainable food system as part of innovation. III) Creating an enabling environment &setting up an institutional process for learning, management and sustainability that includes Community institution building, knowledge transformation, scaling up, call centres (Resource Hubs) & ICT, employable skill-building and social enterprises. This COVID-19 Pandemic crisis presents us with a huge opportunity to rethink the way we work, educate our children, and even our cultural customs,and to realign these towards social, economic, environmental sustainability. The scale of the disaster requires new ways of working, and innovative partnerships to ensure interventions go to scale and support efforts to prevent transmission, promote positive transformation where the impact will be greatest, and ensure that efforts to combat the climate crisis puts people first. Certainly, these contributions will add value to achieving the SDGs & sustainability more broadly. | udyama.pradeep@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QdYGPNy7ng&feature=youtu.be | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | No Engagement of Donors | Collector Bolangir & Nayagarh | District Collecor Bolangir & Nayagarh | Officers of Niti Ayog & Ministry of Home Affairs , Government of India | Yes | https://www.udyama.org | |||

| Miss | Avina Ajit | Refugee Integration Organisation | Ghana | Humanitarian Aid | Refugee camps in Ghana | Leaving no one behind is the central promise of the 2030 Agenda and its SDGs. A promise that can only be fulfilled by taking account of all persons of concern and their needs. The lack of updated information about refugees results in the creation of wasteful programmes that not only cost well-meaning organisations resources but also create a sense of dejection amongst the people they serve. RIO's Unconditional Basic Income programme with over 2500 refugees in Ghana and Kenya, and RIO’s multi-faceted census on the population is a one-of-a-kind programme in West Africa and perhaps in all refugee spaces. The results of our work have deeply influenced the stagnant communities and the results of our study are accessible to organisations and governmental aid alike that have a solution-based approach to the refugee situation. We intend to establish partnerships with vetted organisations to convert the relevant data into solutions that assist different facets of our research. The main areas of research is as follows: Income and Occupation; Skills & Education; Health; Perception; Migratory Tendencies; Home-environment & Family dynamics; Natural Environment and Available Resources. | avina.ajit@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Low e.g. None of the populations in the village go to school, Middle e.g. Some of the populations in the village go to school | Weak: no action, no guidance, no engagement or no mobilization | Insufficient mobilization of funds | Refugee Integration Organisation (RIO) ; Impact Market | John Konah, Hammond Oduro | Avina Ajit, Rya G.

| Mr | Musisi Bbosa Daniel | FOSTERS FRIENDS UGANDA | Uganda | Humanitarian Aid | Kampala | FOSTERS FRIENDS UGANDA is a humanitarian organization that helps people who are suffering through saving lives and maintaining human dignity at anytime, anyplace in Uganda. We are responsible, aware of the circumstances of other people’s lives and helping them on the basis of need without discrimination. Uganda continues to face conflict – related humanitarian and protection challenges. The far eastern region, the most vulnerable part of the country with the high rates of poverty, high numbers of children facing hunger and malnutrition, high illiteracy, natural disaster attacks like landslides to people residing in the area of Bududa, and many more, there is more than 5 million people including men, women and children that need Humanitarian aid. The refugee population in Uganda has also increased from 200,000 in 2012 to more than 1.2 million. As a whole, these refugees are coming from more than 10 countries around the globe including South Sudan, Congo, Rwanda, Somalia, Eritrea, Afghanistan and many more. Most of these people are affected by wars, political instabilities and poverty in their countries hence seeking refuge and asylum in Uganda. These people need water for drinking, food to eat, education for the children and all life basic necessities to live on and feel safe. This brings Foster Friends Uganda (FOSTERS) to tackle all these pressing humanitarian issues among different communities in Uganda. The organization programs are based on four pillars: building a protective environment and supporting community peace building; preventing and responding to the violent exploitation of children; fighting hunger and malnutrition, increasing access to basic services; and strengthening emergency preparedness and response systems.

| Miss | Maggie Ndagire | Women And Children's Empowerment Network in Africa | Uganda | Gender | Kampala, Uganda | Today, research has it that, Sub-Saharan Africa is home to more out-of-school children than any other region in the world. It also has the highest teenage pregnancy rates globally, making the region uniquely confronted by how to address and accommodate pregnancies and young mothers in school. Policies range across the region – from outright expulsion of pregnant girls to strategies that support the continued education of adolescent mothers – yet social norms, practices and other barriers still typically result in pregnancy being the end to one’s education. With a particular example, prior to COVID-19, sub-Saharan Africa already had the highest levels of child marriage in the world, with 35 per cent of young women married before the age of 18 compared to 30 per cent in South Asia and 24 per cent in Latin America and the Caribbean. WACENA through this development issue is committed to changing this narrative for the better. This development issue contends that, there should not only be education about physical relationships but also interpersonal ones and how to foster respect and tolerance for each other. With this we also prevent violence and other violations of human rights. This will help us see a better and much larger impact in the lives of women. And hopefully, as a ripple effect, we can also see our projects convert into meaningful reduction of harm and an increase in both economic and health benefits for millions of women, hence breaking the abject cycle of poverty/oppression. Women And Children's Empowerment Network in Africa (WACENA) is a woman led audacious reforestation and gender equality organization duly registered in Uganda, East Africa. Its primary activity among others is mobilizing both women and girls to, education, social-economic independence, and reforestation and protection of local tree species inland. Within any given context, women and girls face diverse challenges and advantages and therefore have different barriers and opportunities in terms of exercising choice and voice and shifting power relations. For example, in Uganda and many other African Countries, if a woman or girl challenges or does not conform to a norm, the consequences for her can range from subtle social exclusion, to threats or acts of violence or, in extreme cases, even death. Our mission, vision and core values are aligned with investing in the empowerment of women and girls to achieve their full potential whilst living as ardent champions in protecting this planet. | wacenauganda@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Low e.g. None of the populations go to school | Weak: weak support, weak action, weak guidance, weak engagement or weak mobilization | https://www.unicef.org/uganda/media/14006/file/Impact%20of%20COVID-19%20on%20Child%20Marriage%20and%20FGM.pdf | Insufficient mobilization of funds | Omprakash-USA | Local Council 1 | District Development Officer | NGO Forum | NO | http://www.wacena.org | |||

| Mr | Herman Bukenya | Africa Intercultural Development Support Trust | Uganda | Education | Uganda, Kirowooza, Gunga, Mukono Municipality | Empowering Sustainable Skills, is the basis and purpose of founding Africa Intercultural Development Support Trust (AIDEST), that its focus was that, it would somehow increase sustainability and self-reliance of local communities especially less privileged youth and women in Uganda, originating from years before, somewhere in 2010. At that moment there was no real idea of how to setup organization programs, what its focus should be, (although it was clear that it should evolve around Community Sustainable Development (CSD), by ensuring inclusion and equitable quality of life and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all. All these programs or projects established since that time were designed to ensure that the opportunities are well utilized; communities are well sustained through cluster management, information sharing and continuous hands-on learning and mentoring of young people. By 2013, Herman initiated a program called - Youth Production and Entrepreneurship Program (YPEP) that engages youth to learn various vocational skills (i.e. solar technology and installation innovations and biogas energy systems and generation to promote green skilling while expanding renewables in underserved communities, metal and fabrication systems, carpentry and joinery, waste management and tailoring and fashion to support youth in ages of 15 - 35 creation of jobs, promote education and technology integration to help the trainer and learn improve the teaching and learning process. The organization focuses on building economy by empowering youths to become agents of change now. Why? We looked at something that can occupy the biggest and youngest population of young people in Uganda with the highest that is below the age of 24, and thought out that equipping them with short-term employable skills would bridge the gap of unemployment rate that is moving towards 80%. Youth receive short-term hands-on learning including those from the Universities or other institutions, such that they are able to learn-by-doing, and after this period they can be placed to other companies or organizations for industrial training, retained their or helped and followed-up to start their small business workshops. | africaidest@yahoo.co.uk | Yes | 100 - 1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations go to school | Good: Previous action, guidance, engagement and mobilization | https://www.facebook.com/pages/AIDEST/479416342129137?ref=hl, https://www.aidest.org, https://youtu.be/ekvWu0txb14 | Insufficient mobilization of funds | Tony Elumelu Foundation, UNDP, Gered Gereedschap, 1%Club.com, Digital Lift, EdTech Hub | Local Council V Chairperson, Mukono Municipality - Hon.

| Mr | Pradeep Mohapatra | UDYAMA | India | Environment | HIG-140-K-6 Kalingavihar,Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India | Odisha is a state of having multiple pandemics both critical climate crisis, health & boosting immunities issues.Odisha is a state of very much in multiple pandemics, droughts, climate crisis and health crisis & immunity crisis are the prevailing development issues: • Climate Change vulnerability , Recurrent Disasters leading to Mass Migration, resource poor communities especially Women & Children are most impacted • Food Security, Social Security and Well-being:Access to health, education, drinking water , sanitation, hygiene and nutrition security • Livelihoods:Issues of farmers and farming communities; forest dependent communities; artisans; wage labourers including migrant labourers; • Skill building in different alternate livelihood sectors; up-skilling promotion • Employment generation, enterprise , social protection , humanitarian responses • indigenous community entitlements of tribal and other marginalized communities • Poor Institutional Resilience & Strengthening local collectives • Poor Resource use like green energy & circular economy & Poor interconnectedness • Poor reflection & slow action on Assessment Report-6 of IPCC Odisha unfortunately is in the path way of depressions and cyclones formed in the Bay of Bengal during south west monsoon. With advance in global warming and climate change if sea storms acquire greater destructive power as is being forecast, the state will be required to bear the brunt of such storms which means all the gains of development will be washed away in flood/storms waters. According to the state government’s Human Development Report 2004, property loss & damages have been steadily growing every year over the past few decades.Droughts and floods have accelerated resulted in Food insecurity, starvation deaths, dreadful diseases, miseries and vulnerabilities will be manifold. The extremity of the degree and implications of poverty is experienced by the situation that forces the people to live within a constant state of impoverishment, in circumstances where their most basic human rights, entitlements are need to rethink. Further Rich State Odisha endowed with rich mineral is in the backward category due to recurrent climate induced catastrophes. Equally poverty is some tribal pockets have increased distress migration. Malnutrition poor hygiene, low literacy, less employment and entrepreneurship are also very common observable fact in western, southern and northern & few coastal parts. Food insecurity, starvation has resulted forced migration and trafficking and brought more dreadful diseases leading to poor immunity.Now COVID, the situation is very much alarming, thousands of wage workers struggling without basic entitlements although government has tried best to vaccinate and with support from CSOs. Again vulnerability will be more complex and multifarious to sustain resilient livelihoods. For that analysis of human development index, Odisha has large numbers Aspirational district in India with added focus for resource leveraging to bring back development normalcy.http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/rajan-panel-ranks-odisha-most-backward-state/article5170719.ece | udyama.pradeep@gmail.com | Yes | >1000 | Middle e.g. Some of the populations go to school | Fair: some action, some guidance, some engagement or some mobilization | http://www.udyama.org, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpqLDcK_vpY, (PDF) Profile of UDYAMA | Pradeep Mohapatra - Academia.edu ,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJiTu6jn0zw&ab_channel=SimplySuparnaa,,http://youtu.be/DYFDxDkl3eM , https://www.academia.edu/s/dd7cdac205 , https://youtu.be/_m7LBF5iG1E, ,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QdYGPNy7ng&feature=youtu.be,https://www.academia.edu/s/cf7f6e814a,https://www.kbedu.or.kr/bbs.html?html=bbs_p/bbs_p1_1.html&s=1 https://youtu.be/hpqLDcK_vpY | Little or no engagement by donor agencies / IFIs | CSR, Government, Private funding | To map the issues and target with capacity building and simultaneous action, linkage and leveraing resources | District Collector & district Magistrate | Water Resources, Agriculture, Rural development , corporate affairs, women & child development | Yes | http://www.udyama.org | |||

Our efforts
Our efforts to support sustainable development progress are broad and diverse, but a core element of all our efforts is to work closely with civil society, international development agencies, and local communities to meet urgent local needs as well as to empower local citizens to know, understand, secure and enforce their roles, responsibilities, and engagements for the success of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Our vision for knowledge for development
In the 21st century, a new society is emerging in which knowledge development is fundamental for sustainable development. Efficient utilization of existing and newly generated knowledge can create comprehensive wealth for nations in the form of better health, education, infrastructure, trade, development and social wellbeing. Knowledge goals arise from the need to specify the actions that are to be performed; in other words, from the need to make actions operational.New knowledge development trends, such as knowledge for development and knowledge transfer, are emerging to enhance knowledge and capacities in developing countries in the areas of health, education, infrastructure, trade, development, and interrelated issues, including through policy design. In addition, new technologies are opening tremendous possibilities for creating, packaging, testing and sharing information, knowledge, and hence mutual understanding, in today’s knowledge societies. Knowledge societies should promote, facilitate and support the way each country effectively deals with knowledge for development and its deployment in all sectors like health, education, infrastructure, trade, development and social well-being.
Our vision of Knowledge for Development is to bring the missing millions poorest, groups, management, academics, development professionals and communities together to share innovative knowledge management for development practices, tools, solutions, ideas, visions, strategies, evaluations, and to exchange best practices and lessons learned to meet development challenges.
You and us together. We look forward to you
The sustainable development is a general world program to support all weaker worker rights in the world. It is more focused on social justice, job conditions and climate and environment protection. Single parents and people living alone deserve the same help as well.
Your support is what makes it possible to share knowledge and change lives. In order to continue our work we need support from highly committed companies, private individuals, foundations, reliable and valuable partners and people like you who support and support us financially in promoting the sustainable development world we want. People who understand that the work we do plays a vital role.
We are still open and flexible to explore any potential cooperation
KFDWB is still open and flexible to explore any potential cooperation with development agencies, governments, private sector and individuals that are sharing & supporting our vision for global and local community’s knowledge and skills for development for gender equality and sustainable development worldwide. ~ Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given the chance to understand, know and play his or her role in sustainable development. That’s what we’re doing. ~ KFDWB
