The overall objective of the programme is to contribute to the conflict settlement process in the Transnistrian region through grass-root activities, including through establishing a dialogue between different groups of the population on both sides of the river Nistru/Dniestr, namely civil society representatives, media professionals, decision makers, and increasing awareness of European and international standards in the region. The activities of “The Confidence Building Measures for the Transnistrian region of the Republic of Moldova” Programme (CBM Programme) are envisaged as capacity building activities in technical areas, with the participation and facilitation of renowned European experts; through joint initiatives with the participation of media professionals and activities aiming at developing a viable civil society. The experts’ role will be not to suggest “ready-made” solutions to a given problem but to present different approaches complying with European standards, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. Participants are encouraged to reflect on these examples and solutions best adapted to their situation. All initiatives envisaged by the programme will involve participants from both banks of the Nistru/Dniestr river and will aim at exchanging useful experience, identifying common problems and addressing possible joint solutions. The programme relies on a strong partnership with governmental institutions in Chisinau, as well as de facto authorities in Tiraspol, and local NGOs. Equality, transparency and dialogue are the three cornerstones of the CBM programme. The project will promote increased awareness and better knowledge of international and European standards in the field of freedom of media as well as compliance with the ECHR, the European Social Charter etc.

Within the scope of this project elderly living in Straseni should develop an increased autonomy and physical and psychological well-being in their lives. They should be fostered in participating actively within their communities and be empowered to claim their rights. Through accompanying advocacy and lobbying activities local authorities and the society should be aware of these rights and other issues of their elder population. In the long term this project should serve as a model to fostering active ageing of the elder population throughout Moldova. Primary target group are 281 Elderly from the city of Straseni who are affected by extreme or severe poverty, facing health or social problems, are socially excluded and have no or very little material and/ or moral support from their families or the community. Since almost 70% of the pensioners in the district of Straseni are women, also around 70% of the beneficiaries are female. Project activities will be organised and adjusted according to the specific gender needs.

The project Enhancing climate resilience in the Biosphere Reserve "Prutul de Jos", aims to support national and local authorities in implementing the Law on the foundation of the Biosphere Reserve "Prutul de Jos", no.132 of 13.07.2018, that entered into force on 24.08.2018. Within the project, assistance will be provided to central and local actors from 10 mayoralties to enhance climate resilience and support the implementation of pilot measures on adaptation to climate change which will be identified in the course of the project and learn how to contribute to the preservation of the ecosystem. The project will be implemented in the Lower Prut area, which is in the Southern part of the Republic of Moldova and includes the Prut River and the floodable lakes. A wetland stretches along the Prut River, covering a mosaic of water ecosystems, meadows, and forests. The territory (more than 14,771 ha)[1] is a part of Cahul district, that consists of the town of Cahul as buffer region and the administrative-territorial boundaries of the communities Brînza, Cîşliţa-Prut, Colibaşi, Crihana Veche, Giurgiuleşti, Manta, Slobozia Mare, Vadul lui Isac and Văleni. The communication with other active donors or projects in the implementation area will be foreseen by project partners to accord with all active actors to avoid potential overlaps. The project aims to impact nearly 17009 direct rural beneficiaries (10% from the urban area/the buffer zone; out of who about 50% are women, 628 socially vulnerable persons). The beneficiaries are covering all 10 communities and consists of 11754 households, 5000 direct beneficiaries; 65 officials (national and locals including members of the committees) as well other 190 persons from various groups such as CSOs, media, libraries that function as information points and business.

The dormitory of the Grigore Tsamblak University is a five-storied building put into commission in 1983. The roof is a flat one and is covered with bitumen membranes. The dormitory has a capacity to accommodate 400 students. At present, it accommodates 180 students. The building has all the plumbing and wiring needed for a student dormitory. The building is located in the central part of Taraclia town and is intercalated into a fairly developed economic-social infrastructure. The poor technical condition of the roof however has rendered the 4th and 5th floor practically unusable. Recently the exterior walls were provided with thermal insulation and the windows and doors were replaced.

SGP supports innovative piloting and demonstration of new methods and models at local level with scaling up, replication and mainstreaming of successes and lessons learned as eventual end goals. This project will also mainstream the generation of global environmental benefits into local development practice by providing financial support to communities to carry out innovative projects in the line with the strategic priorities of the GEF as well as local sustainable development objectives. Baseline development activities for GEF-financed initiatives that generate global environmental benefits, as well as local development benefits, will be funded by donors and other partners. As such, this project will provide support to communities through small grants by continuing the Small Grants Programme (SGP) in its sixth Operational Phase, as well as exploring opportunities for microfinance and large scale projects in support of local sustainable development through additional (non-GEF) sources of financing.

Layered hybrid structures Superconductor-Ferromagnet are the object of intensive investigation last decade as they serve as the base for novel direction of microelectronics, superconducting spintronics. Up to now it is not invesdtigated experimentally recently theoretically predicted inverse proximity effect and triplet superconducting state in SF-hybrids. Directly detection of that effects are the main goals of the proposed project. The theory of L.R.Tagirov predicts that the critical temperature of the FSF- trilayers should depend on relative orientation of the magnetization vector of ferromagnetic layers. To enable a reversal of one of the magnetization vectors in the FSF -structure with respect to the direction of magnetization of the other layers by an external magnetic field, one has to provide the required difference in the coercive forces of the F layers due to their intrinsic properties or to use the assistance of an additional antiferromagnetic pinning layer delivering an exchange bias. For conversion of singlet superconducting correlations into triplet one, we need to create special samples with a precisely controlled thickness of the layers and with non-collinear magnetization of the involved F-layers. Special vacuum technological process for fabrication of high-quality superconducting films and layered heterostructures, designed and constructed in the Institute of Electronivc Engineering and Nanotechnology, serve as the base for fabrication of the necessary samples and successful realization of the proposed project. Polarized Neutron Reflectometry (PNR) is planned to be a unique tool for direct measurements of the sign and magnitude of the magnetization of the layers for detection of the inverse proximity effect (or induced magnetism in superconducting layer being in contact with the ferromagnetic one). The second goal - investigation of the possibility of detection of the superconducting long-range triplet component in multi-layered FSF structures, also will be granted by the polarized neutron reflectometry, PNR.

This research project is concerned with studying a class of stochastic dynamic decision models that comprises stochastic versions of classical discrete optimal control problems, discrete Markov decision processes and stochastic positional games with average and discounted payoffs. The aim of the project is to develop efficient methods and numerical algorithms for determining the solutions of the considered decision problems with finite and infinite time horizon. This class of problems we formulate and study using the recent results of optimization theory, the modern concept of Markov decision processes and the game-theoretical approach to such processes. Based on such concept and approaches we plan to elaborate new algorithms for solving the mentioned stochastic dynamic decision problems and to extend the algorithms for new classes of problems that generalize classical ones. The basic theoretical results we expect are concerned with the existence of the solutions for the considered class of problems and the correctness of the proposed algorithms. For the stochastic positional games with average and discounted payoffs new conditions for existence of Nash equilibria will be derived and algorithms for determining the optimal stationary strategies of the players will be proposed and grounded. Additionally the antagonistic stochastic positional games will be studied and the algorithms for determining saddle points will be proposed. The elaborated algorithms will be estimated from computational point of view and implemented in the corresponding software environment. Some possible applications of the considered stochastic dynamic decision models will be analyzed. In particular we will apply the proposed models and approaches for studying some of the economic growth models and Shapley stochastic games.

Phase 1: The project supports rural municipalities in Moldova to rehabilitate or built their water and sewerage infrastructure in order to improve the access to drinking water supply and sanitation. The works are mutually agreed on between the beneficiary, the district and SDC. Implementer of the project is SDC who uses local contractors for the implementation of the concrete works. Improvement of water supply in Lapusna and Ungheni counties. Phase 2: In 2008 SDC adopted a longer-term development approach and converted the earlier existing HA program into a development program – the Swiss Water and Sanitation Project in Moldova (ApaSan). ApaSan started its activities in December 2008 by the Project phase 1 of 2 years. Phase 2 of the Project started in June 2011. The phase 2 objective is to ensure that the basic conditions for the sustained scaling-up of inclusive decentralized water supply and environmental sanitation services delivery models are met in Moldova ApaSan’s Project goal is to contribute to improved quality of life and public health of the rural population in Moldova through increased sustainable access to safe drinking water and environmental sanitation (WES). The approach of ApaSan in phase 2 focuses on demonstrating sustainable decentralized WES service delivery models, building the local capacities for their implementation as well as creating an enabling environment to allow their large scale replication. Expected outputs of the Project include service delivery models for water supply, on-site sanitation and small-scale wastewater collection and treatment systems that are proven to be sustainable in practice and well documented; available capacities of public administration on commune and raion level, communities, NGOs and private sector for planning and imple-mentation of the models; a community of practice for learning and experience exchange for WES practitioners in Moldova; a knowledge management system for decentralized WES an-chored within a major national actor; strong partnerships for policy dialogue on the improve-ment of the legal and strategic framework for WES as well as active workgroups on the revision of norms, standards and regulations for the application of decentralized WES models. A key aspect of the policy dialogue will be to attract other international donors and leverage additional funds for the large-scale replication of the models promoted. The total Project budget for four years is CHF 8'989'583 CHF with SDC as main donor and a co-funding contribution of the Austrian Development Agency amounting to CHF 1’000’000 for 2011/12. SDC mandated Skat Consulting Ltd. (St. Gallen, Switzerland) as implementing agency of ApaSan. Phase 3: The Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and the Austrian Development Cooperation (ADC) are cooperating with the Government of Moldova to support the population in rural areas and small towns in Moldova. SDC and ADC are funding the third phase of the Water and Sanitation Project ApaSan for improving the life conditions of people living in villages by improving their access to water and sanitation services that are sustainable and of good quality. The rural population in Moldova seriously lacks of access to safe water supply and sanitation. People in rural areas suffer much worse conditions than their urban counterparts, and within rural areas, it is the poorest and weakest groups that have lowest access to good services. At present, the water and sanitation sector institutions in Moldova faces serious challenges in better responding to the needs of the rural population: · Local public administrations have little means to fulfil their responsibility for providing water and sanitation to the rural population; often they also have little awareness regarding their role in service provision. · There is not enough funding for rural water supply and sanitation infrastructure, and the limited funds are invested in a political biased manner largely into projects of deficient quality and lacking sustainability and equitable access perspective. · Small operators of water systems have too weak capacities to be able ensuring sustainable operation of small water and sanitation system in villages on the long term. Large operators have generally poor performance and do not operate small independent villages systems. · There is not enough learning and innovation in the sector, technical and managerial options known to sector stakeholders and applied for rural water supply and sanitation are still very limited and often inadequate. SDC’s support to the water sector in Moldova started in 2001 with a humanitarian aid intervention, and since 2008, SDC and ADC are funding the ApaSan project. ApaSan, implemented by the Swiss consulting firm Skat, aims at scaling-up of the services delivery models for rural water and sanitation developed since 2001 by creating favourable conditions for up-scaling of decentralized water and sanitation models. Phase 3: The Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) and the Austrian Development Cooperation (ADC) are cooperating with the Government of Moldova to support the population in rural areas and small towns in Moldova.

ApaSan, implemented by the Swiss consulting firm Skat, aims at scaling-up of the services delivery models for rural water and sanitation developed since 2001 by creating favourable conditions for up-scaling of decentralized water and sanitation models. The objective of the third and last phase of ApaSan (06/2015 until 05/2019) is: Moldovan institutions at all levels respond to the needs for water supply and sanitation services of the rural population, including the most vulnerable. In order to reach this goal, ApaSan will work to achieve the following changes in Moldovan sector institutions: · National level institutions plan investments, fund water supply and sanitation infrastructure, and provide technical assistance to rural municipalities for implementation and operation · Small local and multi-municipal/regional operators provide water and sanitation services of adequate quality to rural communities · Relevant actors (sector specialists, educational & research institutions, national funds, etc.) apply innovative solutions that address technical, managerial and inclusiveness issues for rural water supply and sanitation The overall strategy of the project is to transfer know-how on rural water supply and sanitation generated by ApaSan to Moldovan institutions, and to institutionalise functions that ApaSan has fulfilled so far in the implementation of sustainable water and sanitation projects, so that these institutions are able to improve their performance in responding to the needs of the rural population for water supply and sanitation services. The main instruments that will be applied for transfer of know-how and strengthening capacities of partner institutions include technical assistance to partner institutions, training of staff of partner institutions as well as co-financing and joint implementation of water supply and sanitation projects. The project specifically aims at assuring equitable access for the rural population to water and sanitation services, which requires specific attention to vulnerable groups. The selection of localities will be done in a way as to adequately reflect the geographic, administrative, economic and ethnic diversity of the country, which means that the project will continue to aim at the entire country, including Gagauzia and Transnistria. The total project budget provided by SDC and ADC is 8 Million CHF. Moldovan national and local governments and the local population are expected to contribute about 2.9 Million CHF.

The genus Artemisia, with about 500 species, is one of the largest and most widely distributed genera of Asteraceae family. It’s a genus of small herbs and shrubs distributed mainly in the Northern hemisphere and temperate zones of Europe, Asia and America. Artemisia displays a huge ecological plasticity, with species occurring from sea level to high mountains and from arid zones to wetlands. Most of the members of the genus have characteristic scent and taste. Phytochemical reports on Artemisia species deal mainly with terpenoids, flavonoids, coumarins, steroids and polyacetylenes. An exhaustive survey of literature revealed that the different species of Artemisia have a vast range of biological activities including antimalarial, cytotoxic, antihepatotoxic, antibacterial, antifungal and antioxidant activity. Some very important drug leads have been discovered from this genus, notably artemisinin, the well-known antimalarial drug isolated from Artemisia annua. Some Artemisia species (e.g. A. dracunculus) are also well-known for their aromatic and culinary properties. In the flora of the Republic of Moldova, Artemisia L. is represented by 9 species (Negru, 2007), versus 16 species in Romania (five are considered rare) (Ciocarlan, 2009) and 13 in Switzerland (6 are protected) (Moser et al., 2002). Based on literature search (EMEA/HMPC, 2008; Shri Ram, 2011; Li Yan, 2011; Demtew Z., 2011; WHO, 2012), species belonging to this genus contain a wide variety of chemical compounds making them very important from pharmacological viewpoint. But, up to date, there are no distinct references on the ethnobotany and use of these species for medical purposes in Moldova. Lack of scientific knowledge on these species makes difficult the capitalization of their pharmaceutical potential at local level. The aim of the project is the capitalization of the genetic diversity of several Artemisia species (A. annua, A. absinthium and A. lerchiana), through the identification, chemical analyses, selection and propagation of high yielding genotypes. In order to achieve the main goal of the project, interdisciplinary studies in the field of biology, ecology, phytochemistry, and agronomy (horticulture) will be developed.

In the first family it will be verified experimentally, if the order-by-disorder scenario realizes in the manganese compounds; what is the ground state and excitations in the iron based spin-orbital liquid, can the orbital ordering and a quantum critical phase transition in this system be induced by applying isotropic pressure. In the second family we intend to work out the microscopic description of the system and to collect experimental facts distinguishing and linking spin-ices in spinel and pyrochlore materials.

The project is aimed at investigation of magnetic frustration effects in transition-metal (TM) and rare-earth (RE) spinels. The TM AB2X4 (A= Fe, Mn; B= Sc, Y; X= S, Se) family is attractive due to realization of spiral spin- and spin-orbital liquids. We plan to extend available experimental findings on polycrystalline samples by growing and investigating single crystals. The potential of the RE AB2X4 (A=Cd, Zn; B=Er, Yb; X =S, Se) compounds is at the beginning of its exploration. The first experiments performed on polycrystalline CdEr2Se4 suggest it is the first spin ice outside the rare-earth pyrochlore series. We will grow single crystals of several members of the RE family and investigate them using advanced local-probe and neutron scattering techniques.

Phase I: The Project “Healthy Generation – Scaling-up Youth Friendly Health Services in Moldova” will contribute to the improvement of health and development potential of young people in Moldova by comprehensive and multidimensional interventions to support the vertical, horizontal and functional scaling up of YFHS. The present project foresees to extend the coverage with YFHS to geographic areas by integrating youth friendly approach and practices in the Reproductive Health Services (RHS), as well as in School Health Services (SHS) and at the primary health care level. Legal framework and financial mechanisms will be improved, based on costing analysis, in order to build incentives for reaching the most vulnerable young people and for quality services. Another area of improvement is the coordination of care between various levels of health services and formalizing referrals between the health systems, health units in schools, social services and NGOs. The project is in line with the national and the sector main policy documents: The National Development Strategy (NDS), The National MDGs (4th, 5th, and 6th), The National Health Policy (NHP) the Health Sector Development Strategy 2008-2017 (HSDS), the National Strategy on Reproductive Health (2005-2015) and National Youth Strategy (2009-2013) Phase II: The Project “Healthy Generation – Scaling-up Youth Friendly Health Services in Moldova” will contribute to the improvement of health and development potential of young people in Moldova by comprehensive and multidimensional interventions to support the vertical, horizontal and functional scaling up of YFHS. The project approach focuses on four strategic interventions. First, there will be sustained interventions to continuously improve the legal, policy and regulatory framework in order to remove legal barriers for adolescent to access YFHS and to clarify the position of YFHC within the health system. Second, the managerial and technical capacities of YFHS managers and staff will be strengthened and professionalism will be developed through networking and exposure to international experience. Third, at national and local level, inter-sectorial cooperation in adolescent health and development will be harmonised and strengthened so that existing mechanisms for inter-sectorial collaboration improve their management and referral of cases involving adolescents. Finally, social change in adolescent health and development will be achieved through communication and community mobilisation: participatory approaches in communication will place young people at the centre of all initiatives aiming at improving their well-being. A particular emphasis will be placed on mobilising a wide variety of actors at the community level and in using a wide range of information sources and communication technologies to better reach all young people, with a particular focus on young people most at risk and especially vulnerable adolescents.

Tuberculosis (TB) burden increased in the 1990s due to resurgence of the TB epidemic in Eastern Europe and Central Asia (EECA) region after the breakup of the USSR. In the 2000s the epidemic stabilized and the annual number of cases began to decrease since 2005 in most countries. In 2013, 360,000 incident TB cases emerged in the WHO European Region, equivalent to an average of 39 cases per 100,000 population, about 44% of them in age group 25-44 years. A total of 38,000 TB deaths occurred (4.1 deaths per 100,000 population) the same year. The geographical distribution of TB burden is very uneven, ranging between 2 and 160 incident TB cases per 100,000 population. About 38% of TB cases (136,300) and 40% of deaths (15,060) are attributed to the eleven EECA countries targeted by the current TB Regional EECA Project – Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. Despite notable progress in the past decade, TB is still of public health concern in most of the countries within the WHO European Region, and especially in the 18 High Priority Countries to Stop TB in the region, which includes all TB-REP targeted countries. [1] The prevalence of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in Europe is the highest in the world: 15 of the 27 high burden countries for MDR-TB in the world are from WHO European Region (including all EECA countries targeted by this proposal except Turkmenistan). On average, MDR-TB was found in 16.7% of new cases and in 45.7% of previously treated in 2013 in EECA countries (some countries registered MDR prevalence of more than 25% and 55%, respectively). Of an estimated 75,000 multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) cases in the European Region, only 47.3% (35,539) have been detected in 2013. Of 75,000 estimated MDR-TB cases, 33,060 (45%) are from the eleven TB-REP targeted EECA countries and of them, 20,341 (60%) were detected. The estimated prevalence of extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) is about 10%. In total 504 XDR-TB cases were detected, which is an equivalent of 7% of all estimated XDR-TB cases occurring in the Region annually (about 7,500). Favourable TB treatment success is the lowest in the European Region of all WHO Regions, with 76% of new and relapsed TB cases and 57% of retreatment cases treated successfully. The treatment success rate in MDR-TB cohort was 46%. Unfavourable trends in treatment performance are mostly due to high proportion of DR-TB in EECA countries related to outdated hospital-based treatment initiation, long hospital stays, problems achieving continuous access to quality second-line drugs, insufficient patient support systems at community level, social vulnerabilities of patients, such as substance addiction and poverty. At present, EECA countries are in transition from outdated over-hospitalized, vertical systems to more integrated outpatient oriented services with a strong focus on Primary Health Care (PHC) for common diseases. However, those driving the transition must overcome the legacy of fragmented governance, service delivery and finance systems, lack of modern equipment and understaffing, low motivation and/or inequitable distribution of staff (e.g. in rural areas), with few incentives for health workers to stay or to develop their skills. The emergence of M/XDR-TB poses a new burden on health systems in general and PHC in particular, since M/XDR-TB management is complex, lengthy and costly and requires systems for cooperation between different care providers, enhanced clinical skills, motivation of PHC staff and, importantly, shifts towards ambulatory care, acceptance of patient-centred practices, and multidisciplinary models of care. Moreover, important ethical and human rights dilemmas are raised in most of the countries, in need to prevent and treat drug resistance and challenged by legislations introducing involuntary isolation and treatment and limiting compassionate use of new TB drugs. The current grant is designed in response to the above described challenges, to be managed by the Center for Health Policies and Studies (PAS Center) together with the World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe (WHO/EURO) and partners.

Proiectul propus are drept obiectiv principal diminuarea efectelor negative ale secetei din anul 2012, prin acordarea suportului fermierilor pentru restabilirea producţiei de porumb şi grîu, precum şi prevenirea reducerii efectivului de animale în cele mai afectate regiuni. Astfel, vor fi susţinute eforturile Guvernului în abordarea situaţiei de urgenţă, prin reducerea riscurilor extinderii şi facilitarea procesului de recuperare urmare a secetei. Pentru a atinge aceste obiective, activităţile proiectului se vor orienta la oferirea asistenţei tehnice şi financiare fermierilor din cele mai afectate regiuni ale ţării, investiţiile fiind astfel direcţionate înspre însămînţarea porumbului şi a grîului. Porumbul constituie un element important în hrana animalelor, iar lipsa acestuia ar putea conduce la diminuarea efectivului de animale. Proiectul „Suport de urgenţă pentru agricultura Moldovei” completează următoarele două proiecte ale Băncii Mondiale, care sunt în prezent în curs de implementare: (i) Proiectul de management al dezastrelor şi riscurilor climatice şi (ii) Proiectul Agricultura Competitivă. Astfel de practici sunt un element esenţial al ajutorului acordat agricultorilor în vederea adaptării la schimbările climatice şi susţinerii acestui sector astfel, încît acesta să devină mai rezistent la variaţiile climatice. Proiectul constă din următoarele trei componente: (i) transferuri de bani pentru agricultorii afectaţi, (ii) instruire şi sensibilizare şi (iii) management de proiect.

The Small Grants Programme is a country-driven and effective delivery mechanism of funds to poor and vulnerable communities enabling them to transform global environment policies into concrete local actions and vice versa through provision of lessons and knowledge from local projects to policy makers. SGP supports innovative piloting and demonstration of new methods and models at local level with scaling up, replication and mainstreaming of successes and lessons learned as eventual end goals. This project will also mainstream the generation of global environmental benefits into local development practice by providing financial support to communities to carry out innovative projects in the line with the strategic priorities of the GEF as well as local sustainable development objectives. Baseline development activities for GEF-financed initiatives that generate global environmental benefits, as well as local development benefits, will be funded by donors and other partners. As such, this project will provide support to communities through small grants by continuing the Small Grants Programme (SGP) in its fifth Operational Phase, as well as exploring opportunities for microfinance and large scale projects in support of local sustainable development through additional (non-GEF) sources of financing.
