From the analysis of these elements, CeVI together with the partners CVCS, ENAIP FVG, Progrès Universel,Regional Office of Crafts of Daloa, Municipality of Djébonoua, DPJEJ and Saint Camille de Lellis has developed an intervention strategy pursuing the SDG 8 (target 8.5 and 8.6) “Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all”. The following proposal aims to promote and encourage the social and working inclusion of the most vulnerable groups such as young people without training and employment (NEET), women, minors in conflict with the law and mentally ill people in the areas of Daloa, Djébonoua and Bouaké. The target group taken into consideration constantly experiences a state of marginalisation and stigma due to ethnic, cultural, health and gender characteristics.To achieve this objective, two key results have been identified: the first refers to SDG 4 (target 4.3) and provides for "the strengthening of professional training, career orientation, business start-up and social protection services" through the promotion of training courses focused on a "Know-how" approach aimed at key figures both in the training sector such as teachers, educators, officials, and in the business sector such as artisans, entrepreneurs, representatives of chambers of commerce. In particular, different training cycles will be organised by some external consultants specialised in technical, management, pedagogical and computer knowledge. Furthermore, orientation experts will be trained to guide young people in their search for training and employment paths while simultaneously studying the evolution of the job market. Finally, in the entrepreneurial sector, entrepreneurship and business start-up paths will be created to allow key figures in the sector to specialise in technical-professional and good governance skills. The 2nd result aims to "increase employment opportunities and launch business start-ups in the intervention areas, in particular for women, young people, people with mental health problems and minors in conflict with the law". To allow people who find themselves in particular conditions of social and economic fragility in the intervention territories, training courses will be created in order to facilitate the acquisition of specialised professional skills acquired and recognized at national level, which allows easier access to the world of work, characterised by a demand for qualified resources with specific skills. The trainings will be organised by different partners based on the areas of intervention and the target group taken into consideration, in particular Progres Universel will develop courses for young people and women in Djébonoua; Saint Camille de Lellis towards the mentally ill in Bouaké and finally CeVI with minors in conflict with the law in the penitentiary institutions of Daloa and Bouakè. In addition to accessing training courses, the beneficiaries will have the opportunity to participate in work experiences at companies in the area and to start independent income-generating activities. Finally, awareness campaigns will be organised with the aim of stimulating the Ivorian authorities, the CSOs and the local community towards the social and working inclusion of fragile and vulnerable subjects in particular, minors in conflict with the law, mentally ill people and women. Il seguente progetto trova le sue radici nella fase di need assessment, condotta da CeVI insieme ai partner e a differenti stakeholders, dalla quale sono emersi diversi fattori di criticità quali instabilità economica ed occupazionale, elevati tassi di disoccupazione giovanile e in particolare di NEET, carenza di percorsi di formazione professionale, esclusione sociale e emarginazione dei gruppi vulnerabili. Dallo studio e l’analisi di questi elementi, CeVI insieme ai partner CVCS, ENAIP FVG, Progrès Universel, Camera Regionale dei mestieri di Daloa, Comune di Djébonoua, DPJEJ e Saint Camille de Lellis ha elaborato una strategia d’intervento perseguendo l’SDG 8 (target 8.5 e 8.6) “Incentivare una crescita economica duratura, inclusiva e sostenibile, un’occupazione piena e produttiva, un lavoro dignitoso per tutti”. La seguente proposta si pone l’obiettivo di promuovere e incentivare l’inclusione sociale e lavorativa delle fasce più vulnerabili quali giovani senza una formazione e un’occupazione (NEET), le donne, i minori in conflitto con la legge e i malati psichici delle aree di Daloa, Djébonoua e Bouaké. Il target group preso in considerazione vive costantemente uno stato di emarginazione e stigma a causa di caratteristiche etniche, culturali, di salute e di genere. Per raggiungere questo obiettivo sono stati individuati due risultati chiave: il primo fa riferimento all’OSS 4 (target 4.3) e prevede “il rafforzamento dei servizi di formazione professionale, di orientamento lavorativo, di start up d’impresa e di protezione sociale” tramite la promozione di percorsi formativi incentrati su un approccio “Know-how” rivolti alle figure chiave sia nell’ambito della formazione come docenti, educatori, funzionari, sia del settore imprenditoriale come artigiani, imprenditori, esponenti delle camere di commercio. In particolare, saranno organizzati differenti cicli formativi da parte di alcuni consulenti esterni specializzati nei campi tecnico, gestionale, pedagogico e informatico. Inoltre, verranno formati esperti nell’orientamento in grado di indirizzare i giovani nella ricerca dei percorsi formativi ed occupazionali studiando simultaneamente l’evoluzione del mercato del lavoro. Infine, nell’ambito imprenditoriale, verranno creati dei percorsi di imprenditoria e start-up d’impresa per permettere alle figure chiave del settore di specializzarsi nelle competenze tecnico professionali e di Good governance. Il 2° risultato ambisce al “l’aumento delle opportunità occupazionali e l’avvio di start up d’impresa nei territori d’intervento, in particolare per donne, giovani, persone con disagio psichico e minori in conflitto con la legge”. Per permettere alle persone che si trovano in particolare condizione di fragilità sociale ed economica dei territori d’intervento si creeranno dei percorsi formativi al fine di facilitare l’acquisizione di una competenza professionale specialistica acquisita e riconosciuta a livello nazionale, che consenta un più facile accesso al mondo del lavoro, caratterizzato da una domanda di risorse qualificate e con competenze specifiche. Le formazioni saranno organizzate da diversi partner in base alle aree d’intervento e al target group preso in considerazione, in particolare Progres Universel elaborerà percorsi a favore dei giovani e donne a Djébonoua; Saint Camille de Lellis nei confronti dei malati psichici a Bouakè e infine CeVI con i minori in conflitto con la legge negli istituti penitenziari di Daloa e Bouaké. I beneficiari oltre ad accedere a dei percorsi formativi avranno la possibilità di partecipare work experiences presso le aziende presenti sul territorio e di avviare delle attività generatrici di reddito autonome. Infine, verranno organizzate delle campagne di sensibilizzazione allo scopo di stimolare le autorità ivoriane, le OSC e la comunità locale all'inclusione sociale, lavorativa dei soggetti fragili e vulnerabili quali in particolare, minori in conflitto con la legge, malati mentali e le donne.

Through a platform (Trusty), producers and farmers will have at their disposal a tool that allows the computerization of the supply chain in simplified and efficient ways, in order to reduce the time of transfer and information provision in a way that can be easily used by any stakeholder in the supply chain. Furthermore, by using the platform it will be possible to increase the selling price of the products or of the raw materials and allow the implementation of socio-economic development projects for local communities (payback plug-in). Il progetto intende contribuire al miglioramento nella filiera del cacao in Costa d'Avorio, attraverso una piattaforma Software as Service, che consente di ottenere dei vantaggi nella supply chain alimentare, aumentandone la sostenibilità, soprattutto a favore dei produttori locali di materie prime e dei produttori/distributori di prodotti alimentari finiti, attraverso la trasparenza nelle transazioni e la tracciabilità dei processi tramite la tecnologia block chain. Mediante una piattaforma ("Trusty") i produttori dei prodotti finiti e gli agricoltori avranno a disposizione uno strumento che consente di informatizzare la supply chain mediante modalità semplificate ed efficienti, al fine di ridurre i tempi di trasferimento e generazione delle informazioni in una modalità che possa essere facilmente utilizzabile da ciascun attore della filiera. Inoltre, con l'utilizzo della piattaforma sarà possibile aumentare il prezzo di vendita dei prodotti finiti o delle materie prime di qualità superiore e permettere la realizzazione di progetti di sviluppo socio-economico delle comunità locali (plug-in payback).

The programme reflects a strategic shift toward integrated digital solutions capable of addressing complex development challenges while mobilizing private sector engagement. In the two selected and interconnected domains of intervention, artificial intelligence and climate smart irrigated rice production, the project will deliver feasibility studies with executive technical and financial detail, including preliminary engineering design, technical specifications, procurement packaging, environmental and social documentation, and tender-ready outputs. These are designed to enable immediate progression to international competitive tendering and financing appraisal, in line with CDP and international financial institution standards. The studies will define clear investment perimeters, quantify costs and benefits, and establish implementation and institutional arrangements, supported by a robust economic, financial, and climate rationale. In this context, the feasibility studies should be understood as pre-executive project documents, providing a level of detail sufficient to support structuring of procurement processes, and a smooth transition from project preparation to execution. Il Programma faro Italia-Africa per il digitale, sviluppato nell’ambito del Piano Mattei per l’Africa e guidato dal Ministero degli Affari Esteri e della Cooperazione Internazionale (MAECI) in collaborazione con il Centro UNDP di Roma, mira a sostenere la trasformazione digitale e lo sviluppo sostenibile dell’agricoltura irrigua attraverso l’elaborazione di iniziative strutturate, scalabili e pronte per gli investimenti in Costa d’Avorio. Il programma riflette un cambiamento strategico verso soluzioni digitali integrate in grado di affrontare complesse sfide di sviluppo, mobilitando al contempo il coinvolgimento del settore privato. Nei due ambiti di intervento selezionati e interconnessi, (l'intelligenza artificiale e la produzione di riso irrigato per il tramite di tecnologie sensibili a variazioni climatiche), il progetto fornirà studi di fattibilità con dettagli tecnici e finanziari esecutivi, che includeranno: la progettazione ingegneristica preliminare, le specifiche tecniche, le informazioni ambientali e sociali, i risultati obiettivo delle future gare d’appalto, linee di orientamento per la ricerca di investitori privati.

An ATS led by CSO AVSI Foundation and CSO CeVI registered and operating in the country for many years with other local and Italian partners will implement project activities in collaboration with the Ministry of National Education and Literacy (MENA) and its regional directorates (DRENA) to improve the quality of teaching and learning in 800 elementary school in 18 regions of the country. Despite discrete improvements in primary education in Côte d'Ivoire, with a primary school completion rate of 78.61% and a gross enrollment rate of 100%(2023), there are high needs in the education sector in terms of infrastructure and safety of the school environment, supervision and training of teachers, accessibility of learning materials, insufficient family participation in performance monitoring, and lack of registration of children at the registry office, that is a prerequisite for continuing in school. In line with the needs gathered, previous experiences in the education sector, and meetings with local institutions (MENA and DRENA), the first outcome promotes a safe and suitable school environment for the conduct of educational activities (OECD-DAC sector 11120 - educational facilities and training) by rehabilitating classrooms, toilets and water points, providing sanitary materials in schools and menstrual hygiene kits to preadolescent girls, and training teachers and students on issues useful in creating a safe and non-discriminatory environment, with special attention to disability. The second outcome aims to improve teachers' skills and the quality of education (OECD-DAC Domain 11130 Teacher Training), with trainings on various pedagogical aspects (literacy, numeracy and disability), implementation of mobile libraries and distribution of teaching materials and school kits for teachers and students, remedial courses, and payment of final exam fees for more vulnerable minors. Specific activities will be aimed at parents and school management committees (COGES) to encourage family and community participation in school life for the improvement of students' learning conditions. The third outcome includes joint work with MENA and DRENA to strengthen institutional governance capacities (OECD-DAC Sector: 11110 Educational Policy and Administrative Management) with a focus on the annual review of the primary education system, monitoring of pupil achievements, teacher performance, and the work of pedagogical consultants, organizing extracurricular activities to expand the educational offerings of schools (including Italian language and culture courses), and participation in national and international educational events. Specific support for ministry officials on registering minors at the registry office is also planned. The beneficiaries will be 192,000 male and female pupils, 4,800 teachers, 60,000 parents, 800 COGES, and all the structures of the Ivorian primary education system: 380 officials from the Regional Department of National Education and Literacy (DRENA), the Inspectorate of Preschool and Primary Education (IEPP), and the Ministry. Close collaboration with relevant local authorities will ensure the sharing of best practices and alignment of the intervention with national strategies for primary education, contributing to the strengthening of bilateral relations between Italy and Côte d'Ivoire. Il progetto contribuisce al target SDG 4.1 in Costa d’Avorio: garantire entro il 2030 ad ogni ragazza e ragazzo libertà, equità e qualità nel completamento dell’educazione primaria con risultati di apprendimento rilevanti ed efficaci. Un’ ATS con capofila la OSC Fondazione AVSI ETS e la OSC CeVI registrate e operanti nel paese da molti anni con partner locali e italiani realizzerà le attività di progetto in raccordo con il Ministero dell’educazione nazionale e dell’alfabetizzazione (MENA) e le sue direzioni regionali (DRENA) per migliorare la qualità dell’insegnamento e dell’apprendimento in 800 scuole primarie di 18 regioni del paese. Nonostante i miglioramenti registrati nell’istruzione primaria in Costa d’Avorio, con un tasso di completamento della scuola primaria del 78,61% e un tasso di iscrizione lordo del 100% (MENA, 2023), si evidenziano elevati bisogni del settore educativo in termini di infrastrutture e sicurezza dell’ambiente scolastico, supervisione e formazione degli insegnanti, accessibilità del materiale didattico, insufficiente partecipazione delle famiglie al monitoraggio del rendimento scolastico dei propri figli e mancata registrazione di molti minori all’anagrafe, requisito essenziale per il proseguimento del percorso scolastico. In linea con i bisogni raccolti, le precedenti esperienze nel settore educazione e le priorità emerse dagli incontri con le istituzioni locali (MENA e DRENA), il primo risultato promuove un ambiente scolastico sicuro e adatto allo svolgimento delle attività didattiche (settore OCSE-DAC 11120-strutture educative e formazione) attraverso la riabilitazione di aule, servizi igienici e punti acqua, fornendo materiale sanitario alle scuole e kit per l’igiene mestruale alle ragazze in età preadolescenziale e formando insegnanti e studenti su tematiche utili alla creazione di un ambiente sicuro e non discriminatorio, con particolare attenzione alla disabilità. Il secondo risultato vuole migliorare le competenze dei docenti e la qualità dell’istruzione (settore OCSE-DAC 11130-Formazione degli insegnanti), con formazioni su vari aspetti pedagogici (lettura, scrittura, calcolo, disabilità), realizzazione di biblioteche mobili e distribuzione di materiale didattico e kit scolastici per insegnanti e studenti, corsi di recupero e pagamento tasse di iscrizione all’esame finale per minori più vulnerabili. Una specifica attività sarà rivolta ai genitori e ai Comitati di gestione scolastica (COGES) per incentivare la partecipazione famigliare e comunitaria alla vita scolastica per il miglioramento delle condizioni di apprendimento degli studenti. Il terzo risultato prevede un lavoro congiunto con il MENA e le DRENA per rafforzare le capacità di governance istituzionale (settore OCSE-DAC: 11110-Politiche educative e gestione amministrativa) con attenzione alla revisione annuale del sistema dell’istruzione primaria, al monitoraggio del rendimento degli alunni, delle prestazioni degli insegnanti e del lavoro dei consulenti pedagogici, all’organizzazione di attività extrascolastiche per ampliare l’offerta didattica delle scuole (compresi corsi di lingua e cultura italiana) e la partecipazione ad eventi educativi nazionali e internazionali. È previsto anche un supporto specifico per i funzionari del ministero relativo alla registrazione dei minori all’anagrafe. I beneficiari saranno 192.000 studenti e studentesse, 4.800 insegnanti, 60.000 genitori, 800 COGES e tutte le strutture del sistema dell’istruzione primaria ivoriano: 380 funzionari del Dipartimento regionale dell'educazione nazionale e dell'alfabetizzazione (DRENA), dell’Ispettorato dell'istruzione prescolare e primaria (IEPP) e del Ministero. La stretta collaborazione con le autorità locali competenti garantirà la condivisione di buone pratiche e l’allineamento dell’intervento alle strategie nazionali per l’istruzione primaria, contribuendo al rafforzamento delle relazioni bilaterali tra Italia e Costa d’Avorio.

It aims to provide concrete solutions to the widespread educational poverty at the national level by creating an educational alliance among local actors (Government Institutions, local CSOs, business networks) and primary and secondary schools (both first and second level) with the goal of expanding access to inclusive education and maximizing efforts to reduce school dropout rates for at-risk children. The project partnership is composed of FADV (leading NGO), VIS (Italian NGO), Salesians of Don Bosco – REMAR CI – NGO Femmes de Valeurs, RESAFEL, Ecole Pratique de la Chambre de Commerce Ivoirienne (EPCCI). It also boasts partnerships with the Ivorian Ministries of Women, Family and Children (MFFE) and the Ivorian Chamber of Commerce (ICC). The intervention lasts 36 months and reaches a total of 11.730 direct beneficiaries. The overall objective, in line with the UN SDGs 4 and 8 and the guidelines of Italian Cooperation, is to contribute to improving the Ivorian educational system in order to provide all children and youth with quality, equitable, and inclusive education and training that generates opportunities for social inclusion and well-being. The main strategy of the project, as outlined in the specific objective, is to create an educational alliance between the different local entities and 20 schools, aimed at promoting a school model that qualifies education as learning, focuses on transversal skills, embraces digital transformation without losing sight of gender issues and the needs of students with disabilities and special educational needs, and offers the most vulnerable youth concrete opportunities for academic, social, and professional growth based on equality and equity, in line with the Ivorian government’s Plan Sectoriel Education/Formation 2016-2025. The alliance model, emerging globally enhances the continuous learning perspective of the partnership, networking and educational projects within-and-between schools and the private sector, and the development of work plans and public policies for increasingly concerted inclusive education. The intervention focuses on three main components which reflect the expected results, such as: 1. Improvement of local governance and implementation of an infrastructure adjustment plan for schools. Actions include: i) creation of Municipal Working Groups; ii) establishment of Community Managers; iii) infrastructure adjustments in schools (WASH and energy efficiency); iv) Launch and modernization of digital laboratories, IT classrooms, vocational training workshops, and strengthening of the Koumassi Deaf-Mute Children's Center and the Special Classes of Anyama Remar’s school. 2. Reduction of school dropout phenomena (failures, repetitions, and dropouts) and illiteracy. Actions include: i) specific teacher training on effective teaching methodologies and digital education pathways for students; ii) reinforcement programs for students’ disciplinary skills in preparation for the next school level ; iii) educational projects for parents, students, and teachers to impact health, environmental education, and respect for differences; iv) co-designing educational pathways for students with teachers, focusing on transversal skills and career orientation (PCTO); v) basic literacy courses for non-schooled individuals. 3. Enhancement of school-to-work transition mechanisms (reduction of mismatch) with the adoption of professional training opportunities for youth in high-demand sectors. Actions include: i) student mobility between Ivory Coast and Ghana as part of a training program on renewable energy; ii) introduction of new vocational courses at EPCCI; iii) internships for students; iv) professional training for female students in business management. Il progetto CASA Cooperazione al Servizio dell’Apprendimento ha luogo nei Comuni di Treichville, Cocody, Anyama e Koumassi, Abidjan, Costa d’Avorio e mira a fornire risposte concrete alla povertà educativa diffusa a livello nazionale attraverso la creazione di un’alleanza educativa tra gli attori locali (Istituzioni Governative, OSC locali, reti di aziende) e le scuole primarie e secondarie (di primo e secondo livello) con il fine di ampliare l’accesso all’offerta educativa inclusiva e contenere la dispersione scolastica dei ragazzi/e a rischio. Il partenariato di progetto è composto da FADV (OSC capofila) e VIS (OSC italiana) in ATS, Salésiens de Don Bosco, REMAR-CI, ONG Femmes de Valeurs, RESAFEL, Ecole Pratique de la Chambre de Commerce Ivorienne (EPCCI). Vanta inoltre la partnership con il della Donna, Famiglia e Bambini (MFFE) ivoriano e con la Camera di Commercio Ivoriana (CCI). L’intervento dura 36 mesi e raggiunge 11.730 beneficiari diretti totali. L’obiettivo generale, in linea con UN OSS 4 e OSS 8 e le linee guida della Cooperazione Italiana, è di contribuire a migliorare il sistema educativo ivoriano per offrire a tutti i bambini/e ragazzi un’istruzione e una formazione di qualità, equa e inclusiva, in grado di generare opportunità di inclusione sociale e benessere. La strategia portante del progetto, esplicitata nell’obiettivo specifico, è di creare un’alleanza educativa tra i diversi enti locali e le 20 scuole nei quattro comuni designati, volta a promuovere un modello di scuola che qualifichi l’istruzione come apprendimento, che lavori sulle competenze trasversali e che si appropri della trasformazione digitale con un focus su tematiche di genere, disabilità e bisogni educativi speciali, e che offra ai giovani più vulnerabili concrete opportunità di crescita scolastica, sociale e professionale basate su uguaglianza e equità, in linea con il Plan Sectoriel Education/Formation 2016-2025 del governo Ivoriano. Il modello di alleanza in sviluppo a livello globale valorizza il partenariato nell'apprendimento continuo, la creazione di reti educative tra scuole e privato, e la progettazione di piani e politiche pubbliche per una scuola inclusiva sempre più condivisa.

It seeks to achieve this by promoting an integrated system for the protection and safeguarding of children, tackling trafficking, child exploitation, and forced labor, while simultaneously improving the socio-economic conditions of vulnerable families in the implementation area and combating extreme poverty. Result 1 aims to enhance access to and the quality of basic socio-health services through the strengthening of healthcare facilities, including the Pouponnière Shalom Soua di Ayamé, the state hospital in Ayamé and 10 rural health centers within the Aboisso health district. The Sud Comoé region faces significant vulnerabilities in accessing basic healthcare services, as many communities in the area are located in hard-to-reach areas, where health centers often lack trained personnel and adequate diagnostic tools. This structural deficiency leads to insufficient prevention and treatment of common childhood illnesses, contributing to high infant mortality rates. In particular, limited access to safe water supply services poses a significant health risk to children, increasing the spread of communicable and gastrointestinal diseases. Result 2 focuses on the prevention and protection of children who are victims of trafficking and exploitation. The Sud Comoé region, located along major transit routes connecting Côte d'Ivoire to neighboring countries, is often affected by human trafficking, particularly involving children destined for labor and sexual exploitation. Additionally, traditional agricultural practices in the cocoa supply chain, marked by high levels of poverty and low family incomes, contribute to child exploitation. Strengthening social centers for the reception and rehabilitation of victims, combined with awareness-raising and active surveillance activities, addresses the need to build a more effective and coordinated local network to protect children, raise community awareness, and promote a culture of prevention against such phenomena. Result 3 seeks to improve the economic conditions of vulnerable families by acting on the development of the cocoa commercial supply chain, one of the region's primary sources of income. The supply chain is characterized by high economic vulnerability among small-scale producers, caused by low prices imposed by intermediaries, poor organization of cooperatives, and unsustainable farming practices that have led to land degradation and reduced yields. These precarious economic conditions drive families to employ children on plantations, perpetuating the cycle of child exploitation. The project will work with cooperatives and producers to promote agroecological transition and strengthen producers' skills through training centers. The result aims to improve product quality and value, enabling small-scale producers to access more profitable local and international markets. These interventions aim to increase workers' average income and promote a cultural cocoa industry that recognizes and combats exploitative practices, reducing economic vulnerability and reliance on child labor in plantations. L’iniziativa “Prima i minori - promuovere i diritti umani e una filiera del cacao equa e sostenibile in Costa d'Avorio” si realizza nella regione Sud Comoé con l’obiettivo di contrastare la povertà e le barriere sociali, sanitarie ed economiche che limitano l’accesso dei minori della Regione Sud-Comoé ai loro diritti fondamentali. Si propone di farlo promuovendo un sistema integrato di protezione e tutela dei minori, affrontando i fenomeni di tratta, sfruttamento minorile e lavoro forzato, e migliorando al contempo le condizioni socio-economiche delle famiglie vulnerabili nella zona di implementazione, lottando contro la povertà estrema. Il Risultato 1 mira a potenziare l’accesso e la qualità dei servizi di base socio-sanitari attraverso il rafforzamento delle strutture sanitarie, tra cui la Pouponnière Shalom Soua di Ayamé, l’ospedale statale di Ayamé e 10 centri di salute rurali del distretto sanitario di Aboisso. La regione Sud Comoé presenta condizioni particolarmente vulnerabili per l’accesso ai servizi sanitari di base, poiché molte comunità nella zona si trovano in aree difficilmente raggiungibili, dove i centri di salute sono spesso sprovvisti di personale formato e strumenti diagnostici adeguati. Questa carenza strutturale comporta un’insufficiente prevenzione e trattamento di malattie comuni tra i bambini, contribuendo a un tasso elevato di mortalità infantile. In particolare, l’accesso limitato a servizi di approvvigionamenti idrico sicuri rappresenta un fattore di rischio per la salute dei minori, aumentando la diffusione di malattie trasmissibili e gastroenteriche. Il Risultato 2 si concentra sulla prevenzione e sulla protezione dei minori vittime di tratta e sfruttamento. La regione Sud Comoé, situata lungo importanti vie di transito che collegano la Costa d’Avorio ai paesi confinanti, è spesso colpita da fenomenti di traffico di esseri umani, in particolare minori, destinati allo sfruttamento lavorativo e sessuale. Inoltre, le pratiche agricole tradizionali nella filiera del cacao, caratterizzate da alti livelli di povertà e scarsità di reddito per le famiglie, contribuiscono al fenomeno dello sfruttamento minorile. Il rafforzamento dei centri sociali di accoglienza e riabilitazione delle vittime di questi fenomeni, combinato con le attività di sensibilizzazione e di sorveglianza attiva, risponde al bisogno di costruire una rete locale più efficace e coordinata per proteggere i minori, sensibilizzare le comunità e promuovere una cultura di prevenzione rispetto a questi fenomeni. Il Risultato 3 si propone di migliorare le condizioni economiche delle famiglie vulnerabili, agendo sullo sviluppo della filiera commerciale del cacao, una delle principali fonti di reddito nella regione. La filiera è caratterizzata da un’elevata vulnerabilità economica dei piccoli produttori, causata da prezzi bassi imposti da intermediari, scarsa organizzazione delle cooperative e pratiche agricole insostenibili che hanno portato al degrado dei terreni e a una riduzione dei rendimenti. Queste condizioni economiche precarie spingono le famiglie a impiegare minori nelle piantagioni, contribuendo al perpetuarsi dello sfruttamento minorile. Il progetto lavorerà perciò con cooperative e produttori, promuovendo la transizione agroecologica e il rafforzamento delle competenze dei produttori attraverso centri di formazione. Il risultato si propone di migliorare la qualità e il valore del prodotto, consentendo l’accesso ai piccoli produttori a mercati locali e internazionali più redditizi. Questi interventi mirano a incrementare il reddito medio dei lavoratori e a promuovere un’industria culturale del cacao che riconosca e combatta le pratiche di sfruttamento, riducendo la vulnerabilità economica e il ricorso al lavoro minorile nelle piantagioni.

EGIDIO APS XM-DAC-6-4-013304-01-4 AICS - Italian Agency for Cooperation and Development Save the Children Italy (SC IT) presents for the Call for Initiatives promoted by OSC in Côte d'Ivoire, a 36-month project on Lot 2 - Protection of Minors, entitled Supporting the development of cocoa-producing communities and the protection of child workers in Côte d'Ivoire. The proposed project, starting from consolidated approaches and good practices in the framework of the interventions aimed at fighting child labour in cocoa producing communities (Nawa and Haut Sassandra regions), implemented by Save the Children (SC) in Côte d'Ivoire (2016-2025), with the funding and support of Ferrero, represents a further step in strengthening the protection of minors in the country. Based on the work carried out so far, in fact, the project starts from the assumption that child abuse, which manifests itself in different forms, such as forced labour and child exploitation to guarantee a survival income for families, is closely linked to the socio-economic vulnerability of communities, and therefore aims to act on the deep and multidimensional causes of poverty. Through a holistic approach, the project promotes the creation of an enabling environment for the protection of children, victims or exposed to child labour, by fostering the integrated development of the communities in which they live, including activities aimed at increasing the income of families. The target group consists of at least 80 communities in the western part of the country, the third largest producer and supplier of cocoa for Ferrero, the Montagnes district (Tonkpi and Cavally regions), with the objective of breaking the cycle of poverty (SDG 1, target 1.2.) and reducing, at the same time, the risk factors of child labour (SDG 8, target 8.7.), while promoting the protection of children's rights (SDG 3, target 3.2.), which remains a national priority, as emphasised by the new National Child Protection Policy (PNPE) and which spans several areas. The project will be implemented in close cooperation with community organisations, state and non-state actors, local NGOs and community leaders, responding to three main problems: (i) weaknesses in the system of protection from all forms of abuse, (ii) limited access to diversified sources of income and livelihood by families, and (iii) poor health and nutrition services. The project response revolves around three interconnected areas, corresponding to the OECD-DAC sectors of protection (16070 labour rights; 11220 primary education), livelihoods (16020 Employment creation) and health and nutrition (12261 Health Education). The initiative will contribute to (i) improving and sustaining access to an integrated protection system against all forms of abuse, including child labour and school drop-out; (ii) improving access to diversified sources of income and financial services for beneficiary households, particularly for women and youth; and (iii) improving knowledge of primary care and the quality of health and nutrition services. To this end, SC will work in partnership with the Italian NGO CUAMM (R3), which specialises in the implementation of health and nutrition activities, and with the Ivorian NGO VIF, which has been involved in the protection and empowerment of women and youth for many years, with protection and livelihood activities, including at community level, such as awareness-raising, training and follow-up of mutual aid groups, agricultural training, etc. Save the Children Italia (SC IT) presenta per il Bando Iniziative Promosse da OSC in Costa d’Avorio, un progetto di 36 mesi sul Lotto 2-Tutela dei Minori, dal titolo Sostegno allo sviluppo delle comunità produttrici di cacao e alla protezione dei minori lavoratori in Costa d’Avorio. Il progetto proposto, partendo da approcci e buone pratiche consolidate nell’ambito degli interventi volti a combattere il lavoro minorile nelle comunità di produttori di cacao (regioni di Nawa e Haut Sassandra) implementati da Save the Children (SC) in Costa d'Avorio (2016-2025), con il finanziamento e il sostegno dell’azienda Ferrero, rappresenta un ulteriore step nel rafforzamento della tutela dei minori nel Paese. Basandosi sul lavoro svolto finora, infatti, il progetto muove dall’assunto che l'abuso sui minori, che si manifesta in diverse forme, come il lavoro forzato e lo sfruttamento minorile per garantire un reddito di sopravvivenza alle famiglie, sia strettamente legato alla vulnerabilità socioeconomica delle comunità, e si prefigge, pertanto, di agire sulle cause profonde e multidimensionali della povertà. Grazie ad un approccio olistico, il progetto promuove la creazione di un ambiente favorevole alla tutela dei minori, vittime o esposti al lavoro minorile, favorendo lo sviluppo integrato delle comunità in cui vivono, prevedendo anche attività volte ad aumentare il reddito delle famiglie. Il gruppo target è costituito da almeno 80 comunità nella parte occidentale del Paese, la terza produttrice e di approvvigionamento di cacao dell’azienda Ferrero, il distretto di Montagnes (regioni di Tonkpi e Cavally), proprio con l’obiettivo di rompere il ciclo della povertà (OSS 1, target 1.2.) e ridurre, al contempo, i fattori di rischio del lavoro minorile (OSS 8, target 8.7.), favorendo la tutela dei diritti del bambino (OSS 3, target 3.2.), che rimane una priorità nazionale, come sottolineato dalla nuova Politica Nazionale di Protezione del Bambino (PNPE) e che abbraccia diversi settori. Il progetto sarà implementato in stretta collaborazione con le organizzazioni comunitarie, gli attori statali e non statali, le ONG locali, i leader delle comunità, rispondendo a tre problemi principali: i) debole sistema di protezione da ogni forma di abuso, ii) limitato accesso a fonti di reddito diversificate e mezzi di sussistenza da parte delle famiglie, iii) scarsi servizi di salute e nutrizione. La risposta del progetto ruota attorno a tre aree interconnesse, corrispondenti ai settori OCSE-DAC della protezione (16070 labour rights; 11220 primary education), livelihoods (16020 Employment creation) e salute e nutrizione (12261 Health Education). L’iniziativa contribuirà a i) migliorare e sostenere l'accesso a un sistema integrato di protezione contro tutte le forme di abuso, compresi il lavoro minorile e l'abbandono scolastico; ii) migliorare l'accesso a fonti di reddito diversificate e a servizi finanziari per le famiglie beneficiarie, in particolare donne e giovani; iii) migliorare le conoscenze relative al nurturing care e la qualità dei servizi sanitari e nutrizionali di base. Per fare questo, SC lavorerà in partenariato con l'ONG italiana CUAMM (R3) specializzata nella realizzazione delle attività di salute e nutrizione e con l’ong ivoriana VIF, che da anni è impegnata nella protezione e nell’empowerment di donne e giovani, con attività di protezione e livelihoods, anche a livello comunitario, come sensibilizzazione, formazioni e follow up dei gruppi di mutuo aiuto, formazioni agricole, etc. (cfr. attività 1.2, 1.3, 1.6, 2.1, 2.2, 2.4).

This will be possible thanks to the strengthening of the Union of Non-Profit Religious Health Facilities and their partnership with the local Ministry of Health. In order to contribute to the strengthening of an integrated health system, the initiative will act on 3 levels - political/institutional, health structure, community - and on 3 dimensions - the quality of care, its accessibility and the links between the different health levels. On the first level, the project will strengthen the partnership between the Ministry of Health and the Union, facilitating coordination, monitoring and evaluation and the exchange of best practices in this area with other African reference realities. The proposing body will also undertake to study the most efficient and effective models active in this area in low-resource countries and to propose a pilot programme to be developed in Côte d'Ivoire. This will strengthen the links between the two entities in favor of reducing the fragmentation of the health system and increasing the quality of care offered to the population. On this last point, action will be taken on various components involving the staff of the Union who need to be qualified and updated on the most efficient management techniques and on the most recent and effective methods of care. Training activities on care will also involve staff of public facilities In addition, the initiative will equip EU health facilities with material and equipment and enhance the reference component of health emergencies/urgencies. Finally, links with the population will be strengthened through the strengthening of community activities against maternal and child mortality and malnutrition. L’iniziativa, della durata di 36 mesi, mira a contribuire all’estensione della Copertura Sanitaria Universale ed in particolare dei servizi materno – infantili siti in aree remote ed in quartieri urbani poveri e sovraffollati della Costa d’Avorio. Ciò sarà possibile grazie al potenziamento dell’Unione delle strutture sanitarie religiose non a scopo di lucro e del loro partenariato con il locale Ministero della Salute. Al fine di contribuire al rafforzamento di un sistema sanitario integrato l’iniziativa agirà su 3 livelli – politico/istituzionale, struttura sanitaria, comunità - e su 3 dimensioni – la qualità delle cure, l’accessibilità delle stesse e i collegamenti tra i diversi livelli sanitari. Sul primo livello il progetto rafforzerà la partnership tra Ministero della Salute e Unione, agevolando coordinamento, monitoraggio e valutazione e lo scambio con altre realtà africane di riferimento di best practices in quest’ambito. L’ente proponente si impegnerà inoltre a studiare i modelli più efficienti ed efficaci attivi in quest’ambito nei paesi a basse risorse e a proporre un programma pilota da sviluppare in Costa d’Avorio. Ciò permetterà di rafforzare i legami tra le due entità a favore della riduzione della frammentarietà del sistema sanitario e dell’aumento della qualità delle cure offerte alla popolazione. Su quest’ultimo punto si agirà su diverse componenti coinvolgendo il personale dell’Unione che necessita di essere qualificato e aggiornato sulle tecniche di gestione più efficienti e sulle più recenti ed efficaci modalità di cura.Le attività di formazione sulle cure coinvolgeranno anche il personale delle strutture pubbliche Inoltre, l’iniziativa doterà le strutture sanitarie dell’Unione di materiale e di equipaggiamento e potenzierà la componente di riferimento delle emergenze/urgenze sanitarie. Infine, si rafforzeranno i legami con la popolazione grazie al potenziamento di attività comunitarie contro la mortalità materno-infantile e la malnutrizione.

The intervention will focus on one of the most densely populated areas of the city of Abidjan, Abobo East, which has a population of approximately 750,000 people, and on one of the most vulnerable population categories living there - pregnant women and newborns. This will be possible by acting on the 5 fundamental dimensions of access: physical access which will be improved by the infrastructural strengthening of a regional hospital and 2 health centers; the quality of the services provided, made possible by improving the skills and knowledge of the staff; the availability of medical materials and modern equipment; economic accessibility; acceptability with regard to cultural and religious values and patient expectations. The 5 dimensions of access will be integrated transversally into the 3 expected results of the project. The first two focus on the regional hospital of Abobo and, specifically, on improving the quality of care in the department of gynecology and obstetrics and on the creation of a neonatology unit. The hospital is classified as a second level hospital but the dysfunctionality of the Ivorian health system does not allow primary healthcenters to act as a filter. It is on the correction of this problem that the third result of the project acts, aimed precisely at improving the quality of primary services in the maternal- neonatal field provided by the two centers with the highest rate of use in the area. The direct beneficiaries of the initiative are 31,500 pregnant women and new mothers, 10,400 newborns, 100,000 sensitized people and 86 trained health workers. L’iniziativa, della durata di 36 mesi, si propone di contribuire all’estensione quantitativa e qualitativa della Copertura Sanitaria Universale con particolare riferimento ai servizi sanitari materno – infantili, assicurando l'accesso a servizi sanitari integrati e di qualità in Costa d’Avorio. L’intervento si concentrerà su una delle aree più densamente popolate della città di Abidjan, Abobo Est, che conta una popolazione di circa 750.000 persone, e su una delle categorie di popolazione più vulnerabili che vi risiede - le donne incinta e i neonati. Ciò sarà possibile agendo sulle 5 dimensioni fondamentali dell’accesso: l’accesso fisico che sarà migliorato dal potenziamento infrastrutturale di un ospedale regionale e di 2 centri sanitari; la qualità dei servizi erogati, resa possibile dal miglioramento delle competenze e conoscenze del personale; la disponibilità di materiale sanitario ed equipaggiamento moderno; l’accessibilità economica; l’accettabilità riguardo ai valori culturali, religiosi e delle aspettative dei pazienti. Le 5 dimensioni dell’accesso saranno integrate in maniera trasversale ai 3 risultati attesi del progetto. I primi due si concentrano sull’ospedale regionale di Abobo e, nello specifico, sul potenziamento della qualità delle cure del dipartimento di ginecologia e ostetricia e sulla creazione di un’unità di neonatologia. L’ospedale è qualificato come ospedale di secondo livello ma la disfunzionalità del sistema sanitario ivoriano non permette ai centri sanitari di base di fungere da filtro. È sulla correzione di questo problema che agisce il terzo risultato di progetto, volto proprio al miglioramento della qualità dei servizi primari in ambito materno – neonatale erogati dai due centri a più alto tasso di utilizzazione dell’area. I beneficiari diretti dell’iniziativa 31.500 gestanti e neomamme, 10.400 neonati, 100.000 persone sensibilizzate e 86 sanitari formati.
