Displaying 326 - 330 of 2113Securing land rights and supporting self-determined sustainable development of indigenous peoples in the targe
General
Sicherung der Landrechte und Unterstützung einer selbstbestimmten nachhaltigen Entwicklung indigener Völker in der Zielregion
Objectives
Viele in der brasilianischen Verfassung vorgesehene Rechte, wie der Schutz indigener Gebiete und das Recht auf eine kulturangepasste Entwicklung, werden vom Staat nur unzureichend umgesetzt. Ziel ist die politische und organisatorische Stärkung der indigenen Völker, so dass sie sich erfolgreich für die Verwirklichung ihrer territorialen Rechte und die Garantie ihrer körperlichen Unversehrtheit einsetzen und gemäß ihrer Traditionen leben und wirtschaften können. Zentrale Maßnahmen sind Fortbildungen und Austauschtreffen vor Ort, juristische Begleitung und Lobbyarbeit auf politischer Ebene.
Community Empowerment for the Promotion of the Right to Food and Sustainable Land Governance
General
Stärkung des Rechts auf Nahrung und einer nachhaltigen Landverwaltung
Objectives
Das Projekt leistet einen unverzichtbaren Beitrag zur Ernährungssicherung im Bereich des Rechts auf Zugang zu Land. Von Landgrabbing betroffene Gemeinden in der Wahrnehmung ihrer Rechte zu stärken und gleichzeitig mit verschiedenen Entscheidungsebenen wie der Distriktverwaltung, aber auch Ministerien in Dialog zu treten, ist ein guter Ansatz, um der Landnahme durch mächtige Konzerne entgegenzuwirken. Somit kann der Eskalation von Landkonflikten vorgebeugt werden.
Supporting traditional rural communities in defending their territories and biodiversity in the target region
General
Unterstützung traditioneller Landgemeinden in der Verteidigung ihrer Territorien und der Biodiversität in der Zielregion
Objectives
In der Zielregion sind die Biome durch Zerstörung durch Monokulturen und Großprojekte im Bereich Bergbau und Energieerzeugung bedroht und die kleinbäuerliche Landbevölkerung aus dem gleichen Grund aufgrund fehlender Landbesitztitel von Vertreibung. Die Fachstelle für Landfragen der brasilianischen Bischofskonferenz unterstützt traditionelle Landgemeinden bei der Verteidigung ihrer Territorien und der Biodiversität.
Prog2017-2021_commun_BKF-OS: Développement des opportunités économiques des femmes rurales par un renforcement
General
The overall aim is to improve the livelihoods of rural communities in Northern Tanzania, by promoting and facilitating community-based forest management (SO1) and sustainable and climate-smart land use practices (agro-forestry) (SO2). We focus on one region: Arusha. In both specific objectives the interventions focus on three aspects: (1) capacity building courses of community promotors and staff of farmers associations in community forestry and sustainable agriculture (including women and youth particularly) ; (2) field actions in terms of participatory forest management and agroforestry (with special attention for water and soil conservation); (3) promotion of good practices by authorities and institutions. After five years, the farmers associations with which we work will be able to gain a triple win out of their natural capital: socio-economic advantages, resilience towards climate change and a richer biodiversity. This way they can break the vicious circle of land degradation and poverty that threatens rural communities in Tanzania and reduce their vulnerability for climate change.
Sixth Replenishment (2014-2018) - Global Environment Facility (GEF) - II
General
This project represents Canada's sixth replenishment of the Global Environment Facility (GEF), which is the single biggest source of funding for the global environment. Due to administrative reasons, this project is separated into two profiles for a total amount of $216,570,000. Canada is the sixth largest contributor to the GEF under its Sixth Replenishment (GEF-6), covering the period of 2014-2018 (Canada's contribution was recorded as $233.09 million as a result of the accelerated payment). By supporting the GEF, Canada helps developing countries implement their multilateral environmental agreements and environmental priorities in a way that supports national sustainable development priorities and ensures benefits for local development. Through the GEF, Canada supports work in areas such as climate change, biodiversity, chemicals and waste (including mercury), land degradation, international waters, and sustainable forest management. Under GEF-6, the GEF and its partner agencies continue to provide financing for new and improved environmental policies, legislation and regulatory frameworks, and capacity development in developing countries. As a member of the 32-member GEF Council, Canada works toward implementing its priorities for GEF-6, which are to: (1) leverage scarce donor resources, including through enhanced private sector engagement and greater use of non-grant instruments; (2) strengthen programming results, from an integrated approach pilot to address drivers of environmental degradation, better gender mainstreaming and enhanced country and civil society engagement; and (3) improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the GEF by focusing on operational reforms, including improving the efficiency of the project cycle and strengthening the results-based management and the knowledge management systems. For the first profile for this project, as well as previous support to GEF, see related information below.
