Sustainable Livelihoods and Social Development Project (SLSD)

01.06.2016 - 31.07.2019

The South East of Afghanistan has largely remained at the margins of the development efforts of the past decade. Widespread poverty, weak institutions and scarce public services characterize the environment. The Sustainable Livelihoods and Social Development Project (SLSD) aims to improve the living conditions of poor rural families through irrigation infrastructures, agriculture techniques and income generation activities and by strengthening basic public service delivery.

UNHCR, Protection Secondment, Yangon

01.06.2016 - 30.07.2017

The conflict in Kachin State broke out in mid-2011 and has left approximately 100,000 people displaced across Kachin and northern Shan States to date. UNHCR operates as part of the inter-agency humanitarian response mechanism in these areas; its main interventions include protection monitoring and support, shelter construction and renovation, support to camp management, and inter-agency coordination on behalf of the Cluster/Sector which includes the information management with the different stakeholders.

UNHCR, Protection Secondment

01.06.2016 - 30.07.2017

As the lead agency for the Protection Sector, UNHCR facilitates the coordination of the humanitarian response with primary attention to the situations in Rakhine and Kachin/northern Shan. Initiatives include protection mainstreaming, support to community-based protection groups, psycho-social support for women, and the development of referral pathways and protection assessment tools.

Currently UNHCR Myanmar deploys Coordinators for the Protection as well as Shelter / Non-food items (NFI) / Camp Coordination & Camp Management (CCCM) Clusters who lead the coordination activities at the national level. The proposed position of the SDC/SHA Secondment (Field Officer Coordination) will assist the two coordinators with their respective day-to-day work.

Citizen Engagement for Good Governance, Accountability and the Rule of Law (CEGGA)

01.06.2016 - 31.10.2022

In Lao PDR, the space for citizens’ involvement in public affairs is a challenge, as the overall environment for the civil society is strongly controlled and not conducive. While the National Assembly (NA) is assuming a more assertive oversight and representative role, it still faces many constraints to function as an effective representative body. The new CEGGA Programme will provide more opportunities for Lao CSOs to engage in the country development processes, and to collaborate with the NA in bringing local experience, lessons learned and citizen’s voice to the NA. It will also strengthen the NA’s autonomous role, contributing to a greater formal division of power, and to engage more systematically with non-state actors as part of its deliberations on draft legislation.

South Sudan NGO Forum Support

01.06.2016 - 31.07.2017

The project aims at supporting effective and principled delivery of humanitarian assistance by facilitating improved information sharing, security risk analysis and advice, representation, and policy engagement among the NGO community in South Sudan. It will ensure enhanced capacity of national NGOs and strengthened links between national and international NGOs. Coordination amongst humanitarian organisations and with other key stakeholders thus will be improved.

Global Forum for Rural Advisory Services (GFRAS)

01.06.2016 - 31.12.2020

Agriculture and Rural Advisory Services (RAS) are an important production input for millions of small farmers around the world. The Global Forum for Rural Advisory Services (GFRAS) is a global network of 16 continental and regional RAS federations currently covering around 130 countries. With SDC’s contribution, GFRAS supports these federations to develop better and more effective RAS at the benefit of millions of smallholders, many of them living in poverty.

Motorable Local Roads Bridge Programme (MLRBP) – Phase II

01.06.2016 - 28.02.2018

Lack of access to services, markets and opportunities is one of the reasons for high incidence of poverty in Nepal. The Government of Nepal (GoN) has accorded a high priority to the construction of bridges to improve accessibility of remote areas in Nepal and increased the budget 5-fold in the last four years. The proposed phase will build on GoN’s confidence in the Swiss technical support, while preparing to accelerate the construction of bridges to facilitate improved access.

Contribution au Conseil International pour l’Education des Adultes (ICAE) et Asian South Pacific for Basic Adult Education (ASPBAE)

01.06.2016 - 31.12.2017

ICAE avec l’appui de son réseau régional ASPBAE – Asian South Pacific for Basic Adult Education - a joué un rôle déterminant dans la formulation du nouvel Agenda de l’Education 2030 en assurant que celui-ci intègre l’éducation des jeunes et des adultes. Il s’agit désormais de veiller à ce que cela soit appliqué. ICAE y contribuera en appuyant ses membres dans leur rôle d’acteur de mise en œuvre d’alternatives éducatives de qualité et dans leur rôle citoyen pour le plaidoyer et le dialogue politique en faveur de l’éducation des jeunes et des adultes au sein des politiques éducatives.

WFP Secondment

27.05.2016 - 07.12.2016

The 2015 El Nino event is the strongest and longest in the past 35 years. Consequent drought and harvest loss have pushed 32 million people into food insecurity in Southern Africa alone. WFP's response, in the worst affected countries is budgeted at 782 million USD and coordinated by the WFP RB in Johannesburg. The overall coordination of the response is assured by the Southern Africa Regional Inter Agency Standing Committee (RIASCO). The seconded SHA expert will liaise with RIASCO on behalf of the WFP RB and COs and thus contribute to well targeted, synergetic and adequate action in food security for affected populations.

Myanmar: NRC, Access to Civil Documentation, Kayah and Mon States

23.05.2016 - 22.05.2018

Due to the decades of conflict, entire communities have been unable to obtain their national ID cards, thus leading to their inability to exercise their rights and access to basic government services. In cooperation with the Ministry of Immigration and Population (MoIP), the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) conducts a quick impact activity to provide beneficiaries in target communities in Kayah and Mon States with Citizen Scrutinity Cards (CSCs). The project aims to improve the protection environment for displaced persons, returnees and host communities. NRC provides innovative technical inputs and training of MoIP staff on the features of a one-stop, free-of-charge, same-day computerized service.

Colombia Information Management and Analysis Unit (CIMAU)

18.05.2016 - 31.05.2018

Colombia has been suffering from a protracted armed conflict, which affected the living conditions of over 7.5 million people. Colombia has a historic opportunity to achieve a peace agreement with the FARC-EP guerrilla in 2016, entering into a transition period out of conflict into local peace and statebuilding. In this post-conflict context, a data management system, taking into account not only humanitarian, but also peacebuilding and development needs is crucial to contribute to a more strategic decision making and better alignment and harmonization.

WFP – Cash-based Transfers

17.05.2016 - 30.07.2017

The nature and type of response provided to both humanitarian and development issues in Myanmar has evolved significantly in the past few years with an increased interest for cash transfer programming (CTP). Government and donors are encouraging CTP. Finance services providers and mobile companies are widening their coverage and will increasingly be able to support CTP. WFP’s Strategic plan 2008–2011 expanded the role of WFP from food aid to food assistance, introducing a more varied toolbox of responses, including cash and vouchers. Seconding WFP in Myanmar with two Cash experts is aiming at (1) providing technical support to the WFP team in Myanmar and (2) coordinating and representing the Cash Working Group (CWG) chaired by WFP.
