  • Exploits actuels ou majeurs : CIWED is a very young organisation and will attain five 5 years in July 2018, however, its achievement within this short period cannot be underestimated, which most of our partners can testify. The following are some activities CIWED successfully implemented and achieved desired results, which is largely due to the effective facilitation and mobilization skills that the organization has used; In partnership with International Fertilizer Development Center IFDC under the Agriculture Technology Transfer ATT Feed the Future Project has been able to reach out to 5,780 Farmer-Based Organisations FBOs in Mion and Bole district. Project is currently working with 45 Farmer-Based Organisations FBOs with membership of 1,350 of which 30 percent are women in Bole District. The project has reached out to 2,720 smallholder farmers in Bole district through community video screening. The project has also distributed 418 starter packs to 418 farmers in Bole district for demonstration fields in the 2017 2018 farming season. As part of CIWED effort to empower smallholder farmers in Bole and Mion districts, the organisation has collaborated with IFDC under the ATT project to cultivate 20 acres of soybean seeds production farm, targeting to makes these seeds affordable to over 2,650 farmers in Bole and Mion districts. CIWED partnership with SNV Netherlands Development Organisation to create access for smallholder farmers who are primarily women in Mion, Sanarigu, Tamale Metro, West Mampurisi and Bole districts has linked up to 2,970 smallholder farmers to Fidelity Bank to open SMART accounts in order to bring banking services to the doorsteps of these smallholder farmers and to encourage the operation of cashless system in communities. CIWED again collaborated with GrassRootsAfrica and Women 2030 Project who is in partnership with the Women Environment Program based in Abuja Nigeria, to undertake a step down training on gender and SDGs for local NGOs and CBOs in the northern region of Ghana, after benefiting from a TOT training organized by GrassRootsAfrica. CIWED in partnership with BRAVEAURERA (an Austrian NGO at Walewale in the Northern Region) implemented a project dubbed ‘Reintegration of Orphan children back to their homes, which was sponsored by UNICEF. This project reunified over seven hundred and fifty 750 orphan and vulnerable children who were initially staying with established orphanage homes. The project is further taken carefully steps on monitoring of reintegration processes, which is vital for both to ensure quality interventions that benefit children and for overall learning, as monitoring and evaluation should occur at three levels: thus, the individual case, an agency’s Programme, and the overall, multi-actor reintegration efforts. Therefore, children, families and other stakeholders involved in the reintegration process should be consulted in the development of indicators. Learning should also be broadly shared to improve reintegration and wider child protection systems. CIWED collaborated with SOS Children’s Village in Tamale to implement a Child Marriage project in Sagnarigu District. It covered ten communities and twenty Junior High Schools where we formed Community Child Protection Clubs, School-based Child Right Clubs, Village Savings and Loans Associations VSLAs and District Child Protection Committees who were at the forefront of championing child rights in both the communities and at the district level. CIWED facilitated the establishment of VSLAs in 15 communities in Tamale Metro, Mion, Kumbungu, Sagnarigu, West Mampurisi and Bole districts who are well equipped with capacity building in the area of Financial Literacy and Numeracy Skills, Basic Records Keeping, Group Management and Facilitation Skills. CIWED has a record of accomplishment of training groups in Financial Literacy and Numeracy skills and in 2017, individuals in the organisation have rendered these services to other organisations in northern region. Notable among them is SOS Children’s Village and BRAVEAURERA in Walewale.
