"Bridging Bonds": Supporting for Innovations that will support technology-enhanced, women-led citizen’s effective monitoring of the Clean Development Mechanism focused on hydropower plant’ operation at the grassroots level.____________ "AloWeather": Work with technology partners to develop cost-effective technical solutions for disseminating advisories interactive SMS and voice, and collecting payments from farmers.____________ "A Climate Service Menu for Southeast Asia (CliSM)": CliSM will identify successful pathways of local-to-national CS-VCs that will inform the development of a framework to assess and design CS-VCs and a guide to CS-VC business models. ____________ "Voice and rights of ethnic minority women": empowering ethnic minority (EM) women at the grassroots to define and advocate for their own development agenda. The action will achieve this through an integrated cycle of research, advocacy and capacity building for change.____________ "Promoting Land Rights for Ethnic Minority People in Vietnam": restoring the rights of ethnic minority people in Vietnam to the community forest lands over which they have traditionally had access and control. It will do so through garnering support from policy makers for recognition of rights and by building capacity for advocacy
Land Potential Knowledge System (LandPKS)
General
(USAID Economic Growth, Education and Environment (E3)): The Project will support long-term, sustainable increases in land productivity, climate change adaptation, and biodiversity conservation by providing a data collection system using mobile phones to evaluate the effectiveness of management actions and to strengthen the utility and cost-effectiveness of monitoring of natural resource management actions for monitoring FTF investments.Increasing gender equality by providing women farmers improved access to knowledge and information.~Results will contribute to climate-resilience, food security, and improved natural resource management.Geospatial analysis and decision tools will support land use planning, climate change adaptation strategies and targeted interventions by government authorities and decision-makers.~National Resource Management practices will be improved with evidence-based, through mobile technology and increasing the ability of farmers to compare and share the successes and failures of new technologies.
Ecosystem-based adaptation and regional development by empowerment of Ukrainian Biosphere Reserves
General
Adaptation to the impacts of climate change has not yet been consistently integrated into Ukraine’s land management and strategic planning. This has resulted in various land use practices and infrastructure projects that have led to the critical loss of the regulating ecosystem services. The project integrates an EbA approach to sustainable land use into national and regional planning. Specifically, it supports the Desnyanskyi, Roztochya and Shatskyi biosphere reserves through the introduction of participatory and adaptive ecosystem management. This is also achieved by building up knowledge among local stakeholders, increasing the number of personnel and by developing strategies and networks. The project also develops proposals on how EbA principles can be incorporated into environmental legislation and ecosystem management. Suitable proposals for EbA measures are also being tested in a pilot scheme using an ideas competition in the three biosphere reserves.
Mali - National Land Use Plan
General
The proposed project concerns a grant of one million units of account (UA 1000,000), i.e. CFAF 860,000,000, under Pillar III of the TAF, to provide Mali with a consensual National Spatial Planning Scheme (SNAT) that will serve as a long-term territorial intervention framework. The SNAT must be the main instrument for implementing the National Land Use Policy (PNAT). This plan aims to create optimal conditions for the harmonisation and coordination of sectoral policies. It also aims to combat poverty and reduce regional imbalances. The project has three main components, namely planning and forecasting, production of mapping tools and project management. The duration of the SNAT development study is 16 months.
Objectives
The objective of the project is to ensure the balanced sustainable development of the territory through the SNAT in support of the territorial and administrative reform. The SNAT will make it possible to: (i) revisit existing spatial planning schemes at the local level; (ii) update and validate data from existing regional spatial planning schemes at the regional level; (iii) identify national guidelines for spatial planning and sustainable development; (iv) produce thematic maps at the regional and national levels.
Target Groups
The project concerns the entire national territory of the Republic of Mali. It will:(i) make a complete diagnosis of the country's potential and areas of economic and social development;(ii) produce a thematic map of the territory;(iii) establish a vision of Mali's long-term planning and development, scenarios of possible changes and development zones;(iv) define the country's economic prospects and development orientations.
Clark University
General
Clark University has a world-renowned Graduate School of Geography with a long history of significant and influential research. Omidyar Network supported Clark to create a next-generation, open source, land cover mapping platform that would overcome many of the existing obstacles to mapping complex agricultural landscapes by optimally applying human judgement and ground truthing to guide machine learning of high resolution satellite imagery. The Grant promoted deeper collaborations with partners and contributed toward development of a vision and plan for future geospatial/Earth observations initiatives at Clark University.
