Landscapes Viet Nam
General
IDH has focused the work of the landscape program on the concept of PPI: Production-Protection-Inclusion. IDH is implementing this concept through the development of PPI compacts in 11 landscapes in seven countries. These are agreements between public, private and civil society parties to enhance sustainable productive land and secure livelihoods in exchange for natural resource conservation. IDH convenes coalitions that develop these compacts. The compacts are based on participatory land-use planning, whereby land for production (increasing productivity), livelihoods (income diversification, resilience, access to markets) and protection (forest, water, soil) is clearly identified, and their related uses are agreed on by the landscape stakeholders and recognized by local and national governments. The compacts also include goals for each of the PPI components, a time-bound plan of action, clear definition of roles and responsibilities, and a budget for implementation. The compacts are the basis for the PPI Fund and other investors to invest in the landscapes, as well as the basis for regional sourcing by supply chain companies. This will result in coalitions that are self-sustaining, are linked to markets, and prove the business case for landscape-level interventions and investments.

2017 Myanmar Programme
General
In Myanmar, Caritas Denmark works with the local partner Karuna Mission Solidarity Services (KMSS) to further sustainable agricultural development, strengthening of civil society at the community level as well as advocacy promoting the rights of poor agricultural communities through organisation and training of community groups. During 2017-2021 Caritas Denmark will continue to work in seven dioceses, where programme activities have been implemented since 2005. The focus for the period will be to strengthen the human rights-based approach in the programme. The aim is to address the rights issues that are affecting the rural poor farmers and their livelihood such as the politically sensitive land rights issue. Further, Caritas Denmark will take a stronger approach in programme design and planning to address climate change through disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation measures as most farmers’ livelihoods in Myanmar are affected by altered seasonal changes in weather and natural occurrences/disasters not previously experienced. This will be undertaken in a nexus of development-humanitarian interventions.
