Project Context. WHV undertakes a range of workforce development activities to build the capacity of the workforce in gender equity, prevention of violence against women, and women’s health. These activities include the design and delivery of a suite of training options, in both face-to- face and online contexts. WHV is also implementing a two-year project to develop accredited training in gender equity. This project will develop up to eight units of competency in gender equity for accreditation, as well as training and assessment resources, designed to build knowledge and skills in gender equity across a broad range of disciplines and sectors, including both mainstream/generalist and specialist organisations. The units of competency and training materials will be informed by an applied research program (led by Monash University) and tested through a pilot to be delivered by RMIT University and two Learn Local Registered Training Organisations (RTOs). The project will involve close collaboration with seven partners (Adult Community Education Victoria, RMIT University, Women with Disabilities Victoria, Coonara Community House, Yarrawonga Neighbourhood House, Knox City Council and Monash University), as well as a broader advisory group and other stakeholders.

Project Context. These terms of reference apply to a 5-year Thematic Portfolio on Social Protection and Decent Work which is implemented in Uganda and is funded by the Kingdom of Belgium. The project is jointly executed by Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development. The long-term ambition of this project is to improve the living conditions and resilience of the most vulnerable populations in the Great Lakes region by investing in social protection systems and decent work, as well as contributing to the promotion of their sustainable and inclusive socioeconomic development. While the specific objective is that women and young people of working age in the Great Lakes region have an increased opportunity to engage in decent work, are better protected by labour rights and benefit from social protection and more inclusive social dialogue. This Portfolio will contribute to two strategic objectives of the third National Development Plan (NDP III) aiming at “Increasing Household Incomes and Improving Quality of Life of Ugandans”, namely (i) to strengthen the private sector to create jobs and (ii) to enhance productivity and social well-being of the population. The Result 1 of the portfolio focuses on decent employment creation and enhancement for youth and women in agriculture, tourism and the green economy. This result area aims at creating and enhancing employment in the tourism and hospitality sector, in the agriculture sector and in the green economy sector, in order to increase the contributive capacity of workers for social protection schemes. The portfolio places a specific target on reaching youth, both male and female, and women. Through this result area, the portfolio will create better and decent employment via three action areas: stimulating labour demand (more and better jobs), stimulating labour supply that responds to the need of the labour market (employability) and finally, matching supply and demand. One of the main actions that the project intended to carry out is to support the growth and productivity of fair-trade and/or organic certified cacao and coffee cooperatives for decent employment creation and enhancement. These cooperatives will be identified via two calls for proposals (one for coffee, one for cacao) and by allocating a grant aimed at generating new jobs and increasing the productivity and decent work conditions of 6000 farmers. The fact that the targeted cooperatives are (being) certified is a token that they are organized and care about the...

Project Context. The COCONUT19 project (Understanding effects of land use Changes on ecosystems to halt loss of biodiversity due to habitat destruction, fragmentation and degradation) ran from November 2006 to April 2009 with the aim to provide a decision basis to meet the EU target to halt loss of biodiversity by 2010 and beyond and to improve understanding on how terrestrial biodiversity is affected by historic and current land use changes. The project horizon was 2030.

Project Context. IMMOMEC represents a collaborative research effort of 9 academic and 2 industrial partners (SMEs) from 8 European countries. MCC is a highly aggressive and often lethal neuroendocrine cancer of the skin, associated with the recently discovered common ▇▇▇▇▇▇ cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) or with chronic UV exposure. Epidemiologic data suggest that there are approximately 2500 new MCC cases per year within the EU; approximately 1000 of these patients will die from their disease. The incidence of MCC is considerably increasing: The reported incidence has more than tripled over the past 20 years. This increase can partially be explained by the demographic development, since MCC usually affects the elderly. The median age at diagnosis lies in the 8th decade of life, and there is a 5- to 10-fold increase in incidence after age 70 as compared with an age less than 60 years. Thus, it is likely that in an ageing European population the impact of this deadly cancer will further increase continuously. However, preliminary data from a MCC registry created within IMMOMEC suggest that besides an increasing incidence, the age distribution of patients is slowly shifting towards younger patients. Notably, MCC has a dramatically higher mortality rate than melanoma, rendering MCC as the most lethal skin cancer. This high mortality rate is largely due to the fact that until recently none of the available therapeutics improved the overall survival of patients suffering from metastatic disease. Consequently, new therapeutic strategies were needed for metastatic MCC. Since several lines of evidence indicate the outstanding immunogenicity of MCC, immune modulating treatment strategies are particularly attractive. To this end, the fundaments of the IMMOMEC project were based on a prospectively randomized phase II trial investigating the safety and efficacy of an innovative immunotherapy of advanced MCC (WP1). In detail, the trial was set up to compare the clinical efficacy of an - at that time - common chemotherapeutic intervention with a combination of this chemotherapeutic with an immune modulating therapy, i.e. the targeted delivery of IL2 to the tumor microenvironment by the tenascin C-reactive immunocytokine F16-IL2. The primary endpoint of this trial was overall survival; secondary endpoints included safety and the induction/boost of MCC-specific cellular immune responses. The translational research program, however, was not restricted to the identification and monitoring of MCC...

Project Context. During 2015-2016 Emory University partnered with the Uganda Ministry of Health, Care International, Assist International, and Makerere University School of Public Health to monitor donated water purification systems in six hospitals in western Uganda. In March 2018, a team of research assistants from the Makerere School of Public Health explored qualitatively the factors that influence mothers’ decisions for choice of delivery place and the WASH status at HCFs located throughout the Kanunugu and Rukungiri districts in western Uganda. Research assistants also conducted a quantitative study that assessed health-seeking behaviors among women within these districts. The findings from these Makerere qualitative and quantitative studies will be the basis for this secondary data analysis. The major objective of this secondary data analysis of a mixed methods study will be to assess and characterize the challenges western Ugandan mothers experience when utilizing healthcare facilities for delivery. This will be done by analyzing the quantitative data set collected by Makerere University to assess the water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) challenges versus non-WASH challenges that Ugandan women experience in HCFs. Furthermore, analyses will be conducted to examine potential differences between the WASH status at the HCFs where mothers delivered. Lastly, analyses will be performed to examine any potential associations between WASH and non-WASH challenges and regional district or type of health care facility. The quantitative analysis will be followed up by a secondary analysis of qualitative data (in-depth interviews) to explore mothers’ perspectives on the challenges experienced while utilizing HCFs.

Project Context. ‌ According to the latest global estimates presented by the International Labour Organization (ILO) in 2012, there were 168 million children worldwide engaged in child labor, accounting for almost 11 percent of the child population as a whole. According to these estimates, 85 million children – more than half of all child laborers – are engaged in hazardous work, directly endangering their health, safety and moral development.2 Child laborers number some 77.7 million in Asia and the Pacific, 59 million in Sub-Saharan Africa, 12.5 million in Latin America and the Caribbean and 9.2 million in the Middle East and North Africa. Since 1995, the U.S. Congress has appropriated over $900 million to USDOL for efforts to combat exploitive child labor internationally. This funding has been used to support technical cooperation projects in more than 90 countries around the world. Technical cooperation projects funded by USDOL range from targeted action programs in specific sectors of work to more comprehensive programs that support national efforts to eliminate child labor. USDOL has also designed some projects to focus primarily on strengthening policies on child labor, education, and sustainable livelihoods, and on building the capacity of national institutions to combat child labor and address its root causes. In particular, these projects, including the project that is subject to this evaluation, are designed to support meaningful efforts by host governments and other relevant stakeholders to implement country level actions identified as important for progress in the fight against child labor in the USDOL’s Findings on the Worst Forms of Child Labor report (also known as the Trade and Development Act [TDA] report).
