CO-MOZAMBIQUE

General

This project focuses on addressing gender inequalities within the climate resilience sector in Malawi and Mozambique. It is a two-year project that builds on a current project titled “Building urban climate resilience in South-Eastern Africa The project will target two districts; Zomba which is in Southeast of Malawi and Chokwe - in Mozambique which lies on a flat terrain in lower Limpopo. Zomba District has a population of 746,724 (390,006 females and 356,718 males); Zomba City has 105,013 people (53,394 females and 51,619 males). Zomba has many natural resources and agriculture is the main economic activity in the district. Population pressure hascaused unsustainable use of resources resulting in massive deforestation, erosion and siltation of rivers and the Lake. Zomba’s topography and climate related hazards are linked; cyclones, strong winds, droughts and persistent flooding are most common particularly in low-lying areas. Chokwe District has a population of 217,019 (119,998 females and 97,021males); Chokwe City has 67,954 people (37,258 females and 30,696 males). Chokwe is extremely exposed to natural hazards: droughts, recurrent cyclones, storms, and especially floods. Cyclical flooding of the city from Limpopo river has led to high magnitude floods in Chokwe, displacing 250,000 people and 700 deaths. In both Chokwe and Zomba districts women comprise 80% of the agriculture labour force. Climate change is increasing the frequency and magnitude of droughts and apocalyptic floods in both districts. The effects of climate change have brought gender related impacts such as wetlands hydrological regimes and this is multiplying the burden of women’s water collection and management responsibilities. Climate extremes are degrading ecosystems and this in turn increases the burden of care on women and girls, resulting in time and vitality deficiencies that lead to loss of productive time for income generation opportunities. There is vulnerability of livelihoods of women and their households in thesedistricts due to loss of assets from consistent flooding. This is compoundedby fact that women and other marginalized households living in these districts do not receive proper and timely early warning information before disasters either because the early warning systems do not exist, or women don’t have access to the information. Due tothe impact of climate change, fluctuations in annual rainfall in the two regions, have led to substantial reduction in crop production and women have been affected morethan men since traditionally they are responsible for providing food for the family. Women in the two districts have been more affected by climate change because of other underlying conditions including: overreliance on rain fed agriculture, lack of access to diverse income generation activities as a resilience building mechanism. Chokwe and Zomba districtshave similar land characteristics where both have low lying areas that are drastically flood prone and high pressure on the land raising a lot of land disputes. Higher areas have very low production potential due to poor soils, low rainfall and harsh water supply conditions. Additionally, both regions share cultural contexts that constrain women’s empowerment due to limited access to productive agricultural resources and services which reduces women’s adaptive capacities, especially during climate-related extreme events.Past climate related projects implemented in these areas have not substantively been gender transformative and they have not produced gendered and sustainable outcomes. The project will contribute to the following SDGs: “Goal 5. On gender equality,” through the deliberate targeting of women and youth as key beneficiaries and agents of change. “Goal 11. On sustainable cities and communities,”through a GTA where women engage in climate resilience decisions. “Goal 13. On climate action,” attainment of the project’s objectives will directly address the impacts of climate change. As a long-term plan, this project will build local partners’ institutional capacity through equipping them with skills and resources for integrating Gender Equality into planning and implementation of Climate Resilience initiatives, ensuring institutional sustainability and project ownership beyond the ACCF contract period through policyand practice influence Gender transformation calls for a redistribution of power and a commitment to tackling many forms of inequality including the way women are structurally excluded from participation and leadership in climate resilience decision making and economic empowerment. Oxfam will develop a Gender Action Plan (GAP) for the project as a tool to ensure gender inclusive implementation of the project and adherence to gender mainstreaming, visibility and accountability of gender interventions and their transformative results sought. The GAP process will among other things entail collection of sex desegregated data at baseline, undertaking a gender, social and power analysis through use of various tools and methods that Oxfam has used widely and in Southern Africa, collationof the gender activities, targets and outcomes for tracking, agreement and internalization of the GAP by key stakeholders in the project, where needed development of capacity and skills to supportattainment of the gender outcomes, development of a review system to track performance in the implementation of the GAP and clear oversight. Oxfam will undertake a gender and power analysis at the inception of the project to enhance Oxfam and partners contextual understanding of how the policies, programs, and issues of climate resilience have differentially affected groups of women and men in Zomba and Chokwe and assess the underlying causes of inequality. Key areas of inquiry will be among other things on gender roles, access and control over resources, decision making and types of power and distribution, knowledge and enjoyment of rights, capacities and vulnerabilities, levels of agency and equality, and other social norms, institutional, political, legal and economic factors that affect the different groups. This information will strengthen the application of our theory of change. Oxfam will use consultants and internal gender experts to undertake the analyses. The process will entail literature review, context analysis, stakeholder consultation, collection of date from the field using appropriate sampling, validation of results with key stakeholders, and inputting into the GAP and continued oversight. Oxfam uses a range of tools in its field analysis. Based on the project’s focus the approach is to use a mix of tools and concepts to generate the data and information. The tools under consideration include the Harvard Analytical Framework, the Force Field Analysis, the Moser Framework and given thatthis project is about transformation, it will also use the Women’s Empowerment (Longwe) Framework. The project will employthe following specific strategies aligned with Gender Transformative approach: • Challenge power dynamics through use of GenderAction Learning (GAL) Methodology: the project will employ GAL Methodology that has been used in several Oxfam projects in Southern Africa, including Malawi and Mozambique, Asia and Horn of East and Central Africa. The methodology promotes challenging ofpower structures and foster transformation of power relations at individual, household, organizational and community levels. The methodology is both a capacity-building and knowledge-building programme which provides an opportunity for participants to implement gender-focused behavioural change interventions. The GAL processes are reflective and will assist beneficiaries in this project and the district city councils to analyse the gender and power constructs and define locally relevant solutions to address the underlying gender inequalities and their manifestations. At organisations level, the process will feed into existing organisational processes and dynamics and will be owned by the Councils so that ‘gender’ will not be seen as something extra or additional, but as an intrinsic part of ongoing organisational life. The process will enable the groups of women and city councils to deeply reflect on how gender relations are currently part of individual, community organisational life and how they would like them to be different. The process both at community level and City Council level will be facilitated by an experienced Oxfam staff and experts. • Build women’s agency in ClimateResilience Spaces: The project action aims to enable women, especiallywomen from marginalised communities, to actively influence climate resilience plans, budgets and programmes through skills building and facilitating their participation in decision making. The project will support women to influence local adaptation plans and budgets at Council Level and in Parliament by using indigenous knowledge to inform the planning and implementation. This is about women’s voice and agency • Expand women’s knowledge in eco-friendlybusiness: The project action aims to enable women,especially women from marginalised communities, to participate in economic activities to build a green and equitable economy in Zomba and Chokwe. • Expand women’s voices and active citizenship through community and national media: In order to address the invisibility of women’s voices and knowledge on issues related to climate resilience, the project will be using community radio to disseminate relevant information to women in targeted communities Use of community and national media for public mobilisation on climate resilience mandates. This will support women’s ability to know, claim and defend theirrights. • Build partnerships with Women’s Movements and groupings: The project will build linkages with movements as way to transform power structures at a greater scale. Linkage will be established with Rural Women’s Assembly, Women’s Caucus at Zomba District Council, and this is part of ensuring there is agency among women to inform climate resilience from a transformative perspective. It is about the power of women to organise, to voice, and to action. This project has intentionally planned to build women’s transformative leadership. • Generation of evidence and knowledge to inform policy, practice, ideas and beliefs: This will be done through partnerships with academic institutions such as LEAD, University of Malawi based in Zomba and ISPG based in Chokwe and incentivising young people particularly young women in higher education institutions in knowledge creation on climate resilience through funding research scholarships in gender and feminists research agendas . • Build leadership of women in Climate Change sector: By linking women to eco-friendly business and financial knowledge through training and alliances building, the project will thrust women into a sector that is traditionally dominated by men and make them a relevant player and shaper of decisions that impact their own lives. and transform them into holders of knowledge. • Foster youth involvement: The project will promote youth focused programming in the economic activities to support job creation for the young people, and tackle the predominant exclusion of young people in the sector. • Ending Violence Against Women and Girls (EVAWG): The Project has planned to conduct EVAWG campaigns at community levels to support the tackling of structural violence against women and girls which limits their social, economic and political empowerment. The Projectwill work with men as agents of change in this campaign and will support reduction ofviolence which can limit women’s leadership inthis sector and economic violence can constrain the gains women can make in engaging in eco-friendly businesses. The campaigns willalso sensitise communities on the issue of land rights, unpaid care and domestic work for women. The EVAWG campaigns are being implemented in Malawi and Mozambique by Oxfam.

CO-SP-Worker Right in ASEAN Agri-food

General

The programme will empower precarious workers in the highly informal agri-food sector - mostly micro, small and medium enterprises - in 3 ASEAN member-states (Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam) with the aim of addressing their rights, needs and vulnerabilities through the promotion of 3 pillars of the JSF Decent Work: labour rights at work, social protection and social dialogue for all. Climate change impacts, economic insecurity and occupational safety and health of these workers will be addressed by more adequate and shock-responsive social protection measures. Labour law enforcement will be enhanced to upgrade their livelihoods. These workers will be heard by employers and relevant government structures through dialogue and negotiation mechanisms. A particular focus is put on women workers who are impacted differently due to prevalent gender norms constituting additional obstacles to their empowerment, including gender-based violence and time scarcity due to long hours of unpaid care and domestic work. Without gender justice, decent work cannot be achieved. Following a rights-based and gender transformative approach, 16 local partners jointly cover the target groups in the 3 countries. They will cooperate to empower local groups and their leaders to influence power holders more effectively. 3 regional partners will add value through learning and knowledge building, tapping from experiences in the ASEAN region, while leveraging the relevant ASEAN policy frameworks, in particular those promoting decent work, social protection and gender equality. 9 collaborators, including the local Oxfam offices, will support the partners through capacity strengthening, knowledge sharing and brokering cooperation. At the end of the programme, these women workers will become more resilient to shocks and risks, have more agency and voice, and work and live on more equal footing in society. Other beneficiaries include male workers, network members and staff of partners and stakeholders. By 2026, 69.200 women workers in the agri-food sector, including small holder farmers, in Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam, exercise their right and have access to adequate labour and social protection contributing to gender equality and (shock) resilience, through better representation, policy and practice changes.

Réhabilitation du quartier de Fort National à travers l’activation d’un Centre de Services à l’Entreprise (CSE

General

The project aims at supporting existing action towards the reduction of community- based violence by facilitating the entrepreneurship of youth through the reinforcement of their capacities and the creation of micro and small enterprises in the construction sector in the target neighbourhoods. The selected areas of intervention are among the most vulnerable of Port-au-Prince and are characterised by high social conflict and economic insecurity which result in urban violence and unstable life conditions. Efforts towards the creation of sustainable and decent jobs through professional training (aimed at obtaining State certification), production and rehabilitation of public infrastructures hope to decrease the risk of community-based violence, in agreement with the mandate of the CVR-MINUSTAH. In particular, ILO's efforts target the young unemployed to involve them in income generating activities that will contribute to the economic development of their neighbourhoods. Direct beneficiaries: 57 direct beneficiaries (30% women) aged between 15 and 35, including 8 entrepreneurs considered as "vulnerable", identified through a community participatory process. Indirect beneficiaries: - Families of the direct beneficiaries; - Residents and entrepreneurs of Fort National; - Old people, disabled people, children and all residents who will benefit from the pedestrian accesses built in their neighbourhood.

Strengthening Coordination and Self-Management of Drought Affected IDPs in Bosaso through an Integrated Mechan

Objectives

This project seeks to improve the living conditions, assistance, and protection of drought and conflict affected population and host communities by facilitating the equitable access to multi-sectorial services in Bossaso through effective Camp Coordination and Camp Management. The core problems that the project intends to address are restricted humanitarian access, lack of information on service provision at site level, lack of land tenure and forced evictions. The intervention is an integrated response across the three clusters of Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM), Shelter and Housing Land amp Property (HLP) where PSA will implement CCCM activities, whereas NRC will implement shelter and HLP activities. In order to facilitate a seamless implementation of the integrated project, PSA and NRC have settled on pre-teaming agreement, which outlines and expresses a convergence of will between the two organizations, indicating an intended common line of action, expectations and roles the document has been uploaded as part of attached documents. The collaboration between the two organizations under the integrated project will ensure there is teamwork where information and intervention is synchronized through maximum utilization of the resources and information in accordance with SHF principles. The project PSA will target 2,900 HHs (17,400 individuals, 50% females) that are most vulnerable in across Bossaso IDPs sites, PSA will directly target the following camps and population per sites: Xaadoole(1178), Saylada xoolaha(2552), Biyo kulule(1968), New biyo kulule(2271), Banaadir(1765),Bulo mingis(3296), Raf iyo raaxo(1976), Tuurjaale(1567) and Xaafatu carab(827) IDPs camps. In addition, in areas with some of the gaps, the project will indirectly include other sites that require additional assistance due to the large number of IDPs living in the camps. The sites would be selected in close coordination with CCCM cluster displacement data and information, where 80% of the beneficiaries targeted will be IDPs and 20% host communities. On disability inclusivity, the rights of PWDs will be put into consideration by disaggregating beneficiary data by disability (preferably using the Washington Group Short Set of Questions (WGSS), by being included in camp management committees (CMCs) and by ensuring feedback and complaints mechanisms are designed to ensure accessibility for PWDs. Also, gender will be mainstreamed into the project through the specific consideration of the different needs of women, men, boys and women. Additionally, minority groups rights (minority clans and other groups) will be fully be put under consideration through camp leadership and participation in cash for work activities. The proposed CCCM activities will comprise 1 Mapping of the existing governance structures: 9 Service Mapping: 2 Bi-annual site verification The establishment/ efficient use of referral pathways to benefit 17400 individuals Communication with Communities (CwC) to reach 17400 individuals 3 Coordination meetings with service providers Establishment of one site roving team 9 Eviction risk data mapping CMCs capacity building on governance for 150 participants (CMCs) 3 Safety Audits Installation and rehabilitation of 60 solar lights Garbage Collection will benefit 126 individuals (60% women) Special mobility assistance for 80 PwDs Establishment of one Community Feedback Mechanism and Hotline Site management and planning training for 150 participants Lobby and advocacy on land tenure and ownership to benefit 17400 individuals
