MarketMakers

02.04.2012 - 31.05.2017

Poor economic performance in the recent years has led to insufficient job creation in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Young women and men have been hardest hit by the economic crisis and are also over-proportionally affected by the precarious working conditions, including low wages and lack of social insurance. MarketMakers aims at stimulating the creation of new employment opportunities and demand-driven professional skills training for young people in three selected economic sectors (e.g. ICT).

Effective Grain Storage for Better Livelihoods of African Farmers

01.04.2012 - 31.03.2016

Post harvest losses are being recognised by all major stakeholders such as Southern African Development Community (SADC), the African Development Bank and FAO as a major problem. Postharvest losses have repercussions on hunger, poverty alleviation, income generation and economic growth. On the other hand besides quantitative losses, qualitative losses imply that the full nutritional value is not delivered. This is particularly important for HIV/AIDS affected population. SDC has a vast experience with metal silo technology in POSTCOSECHA programme in South America and can contribute in the region to the policy dialogue and share experiences with SADC, African Development Bank and FAO including SDC national offices in Zimbabwe and Tanzania.

I biocarburanti contro la crisi energetica

01.04.2012 - 30.09.2017

La produzione di agrocarburanti non va necessariamente a discapito di quella degli alimenti e, di conseguenza, della sicurezza alimentare. I due obiettivi sono conciliabili. È quanto dimostra il progetto della DSC a Cuba: nel luglio 2012 è stato infatti messo in funzione a Guantanamo un impianto che trasforma semi di jatropha in biodiesel. Nel quadro del progetto svizzero sulle biomasse sono sei i Comuni cubani a beneficiare di energia sicura, rinnovabile e a basso costo.

Promuovere il lavaggio sistematico delle mani con il sapone

01.04.2012 - 30.06.2014

Nei Paesi in via di sviluppo, la diarrea e le infezioni respiratorie acute causano due terzi dei casi di mortalità infantile, cinque volte di più della malaria e tredici volte di più dell'AIDS. Lavarsi le mani con acqua e sapone è un modo molto efficace per prevenire le malattie infettive. In India, la DSC promuove questa pratica attraverso una campagna di sensibilizzazione su vasta scala, che coinvolge i social media e le star del cricket e di Bollywood.

Strengthening Local Governance Accountability Project (SLGAP)

01.04.2012 - 31.08.2019

The project empowers communities to claim their developmental rights by capacitating local civil society organisations (CSOs) to hold their local governments accountable. This is achieved by applying various social accountability (SA) tools. A protracted phase of political transition, a lack of structural accountability and transparency, rising corruption at all levels of government, and an absence of elected representatives makes the intervention highly relevant for target communities in SDC project areas.
