There are three ways in which the professionalism of the local media is being supported.

1. Training courses on local journalism promote the tools of the trade; they focus on research, media ethics and

reporting that is sensitive to the issues of conflict and gender.

2. A study visit and training courses have helped to improve the management of local media and promote the

development of crossmedia strategies. These activities encourage sharing content so it can be published in both print

and online versions, and the use of social media.

3. In order to support the development of local online media, a competition for digital media start-ups is being

launched among the alumni in Egypt and Tunisia. The four most promising business ideas will receive support from

GIZ through mentoring programmes and on-the-job advice

As part of the German support for the tsunami early warning system InaTEWS, GIZ IS and its national and local

Indonesian partners implemented the pilot project 'Capacity Building in Local Communities'. Following the successful

establishment of the warning system, Germany continues to support the Indonesian Government through the 'Project

for training, education and consulting for the tsunami early warning system' (PROTECTS). This project is helping to

develop a common understanding of the system as a whole and of the warning processes among the participating

institutions and the general population. The experiences gained through the project's work in Indonesia are shared

with a range of international and regional platforms.

To build local expertise and resources, PROTECTS advises the relevant local and national institutions and conducts

training courses. In particular, it encourages coordination and communication between the provinces, districts and

cities, as well as at the national level, to make sure the early warning system works effectively and to ensure that the

risk management system is adapted to local capacities. To this end, the project cooperates at the national level with

the National Agency for Disaster Management (BNPB), the Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI), the Ministry of

Home Affairs (KEMDAGRI), and the Indonesian Agency for Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics (BMKG). At the

provincial level, it works with the recently established disaster management agencies (BPBD). The Indonesian Ministry

of Research (RISTEK) is responsible for the overall coordination of the project.

National standards, guidelines and manuals on tsunami early warning and tsunami risk management have been

developed. These provide official information to local stakeholders in all the tsunami-prone areas of Indonesia.

The Civil Peace Service (CPS) programme in Niger, Burkina Faso and Benin supports the non-violent transformation of

conflicts in the area of cross-border transhumance. For this purpose, it is strengthening the responsible institutions

and existing mechanisms for crisis prevention, such as the decentralised structures of the state authority for land law

(Code Rural) in Niger and the transhumance committees in Benin. A key focus is the promotion of exchange and

dialogue between the stakeholders who use and manage the resources – especially at the local and cross-border

levels.

CPS also supports the active lobbying work of competent civil society organisations. This approach aims to ensure that

the concerns of migratory herders are firmly incorporated into local, regional and national development and decision-

making processes.

In addition, CPS promotes legal certainty at the local level through the effective, user-oriented and conflict-sensitive

application and further development of the relevant regulations and regulatory mechanisms concerning

transhumance by state and civil society actors.

Moreover, the establishment and strengthening of structures for cooperation and dialogue encourage networking

among the conflicting parties and get them to talk to each other – even across national borders – in order to find

sustainable solutions to the conflicts and problems associated with national and transnational transhumance.


report

In addition to the Code Rural authority, the partners of CPS

include the pastoralist organisation FNEN Daddo in Niger and

the non-governmental organisations Demi-E, RECOPA, GERED

and Potal Men, which work to resolve agro-pastoral and

resource conflicts in the region.

The project supports affected families in restoring their livelihoods from agriculture and forestry. This is linked to

measures for disaster prevention at a local level that are based on a risk analysis. This includes measures taken to

protect infrastructure, measures for organisational development and training and equipping village emergency

committees. Local community representatives, as well as representatives of grassroots organisations and

governmental institutions are supported with advice, training seminars and joint planning processes so that they can

integrate disaster prevention into the planning and implementation of development measures. The exchange of

experiences within the countries and between El Salvador and Guatemala is also encouraged.

The project has three priority areas of promotion:

1. sustainable restoration of the basis for agricultural and forestry production.

2. protective measures for populations in particularly vulnerable valleys.

3. promotion of local competencies and disaster prevention capability.

A high degree of social injustice prevails in Latin America, frequently coupled with human rights violations. Nowadays,

it is not so much citizens' political rights that are being infringed, but rather their social and cultural rights, such as the

right to work, the right to health care and the right to a well-preserved environment. This is particularly true of

indigenous groups, children and young people, migrants, women, and people who face discrimination due to their

sexual orientation (homosexual, transsexual, bisexual and intersex individuals).

Alongside the judiciary, the national ombudspersons (Defensorías del Pueblo) have the task of supporting people

whose rights have been violated and cutting through red tape to ensure that justice is done. This may include, for

example, dealing with cases where requests for medical treatment have been refused for no good reason or where

prison visiting rights have been violated. They can also mediate in social conflicts and exert targeted influence on

political actors by presenting them with official reports containing recommendations on issues such as simplifying the

process for issuing identify cards to the indigenous population or informing the public about the issue of child labour.

However, the ombudspersons’ offices are often limited in their ability to act and develop their work in national

contexts.

The Innovation Centres programme focuses on smallholdings, which are assisted in sustainably increasing their

production and income. A second objective is to create new jobs in processing so that a larger proportion of the value-

added remains in the local area, especially in rural regions.

The programme promotes networking between local innovation partners so that innovations will spread better and

faster in the participating countries. Innovations may be technical – such as the mechanisation of agriculture,

improved seed, fertiliser and cold chains. However, in many cases the focus is on new paths for cooperation, for

example setting up producers’ associations, specialised enterprises and interest groups.

The innovation centres also promote knowledge building and dissemination by providing advice, training and access

to loans to support innovations. Wherever possible, the programme cooperates with existing knowledge centres,

research facilities and agricultural colleges. In addition, the Centre for Development Research within the special

initiative conducts accompanying international research.

The project is strengthening CAADP at several levels. It promotes the necessary competences and capacities of the

Africa wide implementing organisations of CAADP (the NEPAD Planning and Coordinating Agency, NPCA, based in

Midrand, South Africa, and the Department of Rural Economy and Agriculture of the AU Commission), helping them

to foster agricultural adaptation to meet the challenges of climate change, desertification and securing

agrobiodiversity.

Working through the regional economic communities, the project assists the AU member states in designing more

effective agricultural policies, strategies and investment programmes. The focus is on adaptation measures for poor

people in rural areas, and activities that promote the inclusion of climate issues in national policies.

The project supports the NPCA in its collaboration with CAADP countries to identify successful methods of climate

change adaptation for agriculture. These are to be elaborated in such a way that they can be used by other

agricultural development programmes. The methods will be integrated into national and continent-wide policies,

strategies and programmes, and included in international negotiations.

authorities to strengthen the legal framework and their supervisory functions in the microfinance sector. Chief among

the programme’s activities are training measures and support for organisational development involving the use of

experts, study trips and roundtables, as well sensitisation of the partners in various subject areas.

The programme encourages regional dialogue, knowledge exchange and access to technical information. To

strengthen the infrastructure of microfinance institutions, it provides advice to the regional microfinance network,

Sanabel, on its organisational development and the improvement of its services. In addition to this advice, the

network also receives financial support.

In a joint project with the Qatari initiative Silatech, the programme is providing around 50,000 young Egyptians with

access to a range of innovative savings products.

By working exclusively with Ethopian companies, this project increases the productivity, which in turn improves their

competitiveness, both at home and abroad. The capacity development measures have been specially tailored to meet

the needs of the individual sectors. The planning and construction of the universities involves more than ten general

contractors, over 40 architects and engineering firms, more than 90 building companies, and upward of 750 locally

employed, small and medium-sized enterprises. The cost-efficient design scheme that was developed for the

programme encompasses project management, contract management and financial management, while also

ensuring the appropriate use of modern equipment.

The university buildings are designed and constructed exclusively by Ethiopian companies, whose participation in the

programme allows them to enhance their knowledge and skills, thus enabling them subsequently to carry out other

similar projects on their own.

report

Since the programme has streamlined the processes

according to established principles of efficiency in

construction, it is possible to complete the building projects

rapidly and without compromising on quality. This reduces

construction times and material wastage, and as such it also

saves money. This cost efficient method of construction has

now been set as the standard for the construction work

carried out as part of the programme.

capacities and resources for mediation in political conflicts and the training of civilians for international peace

missions.

GIZ provides advice and logistical support for election monitoring missions in the region by the SADC Secretariat, the

Member States and a number of non-governmental organisations. With the support of GIZ, SADC has established a

regional council that advises electoral commissions and national governments on the management of elections.

In order to promote cross-border cooperation in the fight against crime, the project supports the training of police

officers from across the region. Training topics include gender mainstreaming as well as operations against human

trafficking, the illegal arms trade, document forgery, and money laundering. GIZ is also supporting the establishment

of a civilian component in the SADC peacekeeping brigade. Furthermore, GIZ is strengthening the dialogue between

SADC and civil society representatives within the region. In particular, it is promoting the capacity of the SADC Council

The organisation’s main focus is on regional cooperation. The ten SAI (Supreme Audit Institutions) of the ASEAN

member states exchange knowledge and experience to sustainably enhance their ability to act and shape their

environment. To fill existing gaps, emphasis is placed first and foremost on exchanging knowledge within the ASEAN

region. Only when this is not possible should participants then look to knowledge from outside the region. The project

therefore strengthens the structures of the ASEANSAI regional organisation, enabling it to fulfil its role as the

institutional framework for regional cooperation.

The project supports, in particular, the SAIs of the CLMV countries, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Viet Nam, with the

aim of ensuring that they develop the skills and resources necessary to successfully participate in the work of the

ASEANSAI regional organisation. The project supports the relevant implementing organisations by providing technical,

organisational and process advice.

With its single economic area and growing political community, ASEAN offers a wide variety of possible audit areas.

Other key actors, such as representatives of the national parliaments and civil society, are also involved in dialogue

activities with the SAIs. This helps to establish and strengthen learning and cooperation processes in the partner

structures.

The German Government’s Peace and Security in Africa programme was launched in 2007 following Germany’s G8

Presidency with the aim of meeting its commitments in this connection. The programme is intended to build African

capacities in the field of peace and security.

The overall goal is to enable Africa to prevent or successfully manage African crises, if necessary through the

deployment of African peacekeepers. The hope is that this will reduce or entirely obviate the need for UN and EU

intervention in such situations. The German government's intention in launching this programme was above all to

help improve structures on the ground.

Under the Peace and Security in Africa programme the German Foreign Office funds both bilateral and multilateral

assistance for Africa. The emphasis here is on addressing the causes of conflict. As part of its efforts to improve

structures on the ground, the German Government supports projects such as police consultancy activities or training

for AU personnel.

The AU Commission (AUC) plays an important role in achieving Africa’s governance objectives. Particularly important

in this respect are the Departments of Political Affairs (DPA) and Social Affairs (DSA). With advisory services and

organisational development, the programme is helping to strengthen the DPA and DSA institutionally. It also

promotes processes-oriented strategic planning and budgeting activities. The programme’s activities are mainly

concentrated in the following areas:

1. Ratification, proliferation and implementation of the African Charter on Democracy, Elections and Governance.

2. Support for capacity building at the Electoral Unit of the AUC to help improve electoral processes in Africa, including

reforms of national electoral management bodies.

3. Setting standards for the elimination of harmful traditional practices, including female genital mutilation, as an

aspect of the AUC’s work to promote women’s rights in a multi-faceted human rights agenda.

The programme promotes capacity development at the DPA and DSA, in particular through the work of experts

seconded from AU member states to the AUC, and it supports the International Conference on the Elimination of

Harmful Traditional Practices. This includes the provision of financing, materials and equipment, and assistance with

The 'Strengthening of African capacities for external financial control' project was initiated in 2010. It assists the

African Organisation of Supreme Audit Institutions and the Institutions are encouraged to seek competent and well-

acknowledged support and exchange through AFROSAI on a regular basis to improve their efficiency, adherence to

regulations and public acceptance of their work.

The project has two focal areas: The institutional strengthening of AFROSAI and Capacity development in public audits

in AFROSAI member institutions.

Internal strategic consultation is used to strengthen the institution. Primarily targeted at the AFROSAI Board of

Governors and Technical Committees, this consultation aims to enhance the efficiency of the association's multiple

structures, which so far have only functioned to a limited extent. It includes a clear definition of responsibilities and

better internal cooperation within AFROSAI organs, as well as improved external collaboration between AFROSAI and

its key stakeholders such as INTOSAI.

The project supports workshops, seminars and conferences to develop the capacity of Supreme Audit Institutions and

increase their institutional capacities. Additionally, experience-sharing and the transfer of knowledge between the

different member states and language sub-groups is nurtured to ensure sustainability of the project and create

greater cooperation among members.

The Ministry of Mines performs its supervisory role more effectively and is laying the ground for a planned new

inspectorate of mines to take over these tasks.

Approach

By providing theoretical and practical training for the staff of the Ministry of Mines , the project is equipping them

with the necessary technical skills to identify mineral resource deposits, and for the sustainable use of those

resources. Management, organisational and human capacity development measures for those in positions of

responsibility ensure that the ministry improves its governance practices and the supervision of mining.

way to the director general and vice-ministerial level.

At the core of the project is the exploitation of potential energy savings. The partners are advised on the development

of a set of emission quantification tools to model low carbon transport development scenarios on the national level as

well as emissions generated by urban and freight transport.

The sector project's advisory services are geared towards a systematic approach and are focused on social protection

in the event of illness, basic insurance, old-age pensions and also accident and microinsurance. This systematic

approach to social protection is intended to ensure that people are covered against risks throughout their entire lives.

Individual social protection tools such as basic insurance and social insurance are to be efficiently interlinked. In the

policy formulation process, social protection strategies are to be coordinated with those of other sectors, such as

employment and food security, so as to increase the effectiveness, sustainability and resilience of the population.
