In the narrative report for 2023 Olof Palme International Centre (OPC) has shared the following results: OPC provided trainings and study-circles on democracy and human rights related topics that led to an increase in public participation in elections and collective organizing to push for their rights. These activities also enabled a higher degree of awareness of among politicians of local citizens demands in connection with local elections. For instance in Zimbabwe OPC local partners has witnessed a behavior change among community members and leadership as a result of theatre outreach activities to emphasize respect for all and provide a safe space for discussions. In Philippines meetings and hearings allowed citizens to express their demands in local elections. OPC partners have furthermore been actively involvement in monitoring local and parliamentary elections in for instance local and parliamentary elections in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, respectively. In 2023 OPC also focused attention to workers rights and particularly domestic workers rights across most of the regional programmes. The activities included advocacy and political pressure on governments to the ratify and implement the International Labour Organization (ILO) Convention C189 for domestic workers. These activities has contributed to the ratification of C189 in for instance South African and Namibia. In Namibia, domestic employees are now registered. In both countries, it has become easier to file legal complaints if workers are being mistreated. Also OPC local partner in India have shown result from their advocacy work. In 2023 the governmental officials and parliamentarians agreed that domestic workers need increased protection and is now considering drafting new laws and legislation to protect the domestic workers' rights. These result has an impact on millions of domestic workers and it is an important starting point demands for further political action in the area of labour rights. OPC counterparts have been pushing for tripartite dialogues between governments, employers' and workers' organizations as well as country specific political demands. For instance in Zimbabwe OPC partners have advocated for action to curb hyperinflation in order to secure the value of the pensions for workers. In the Philippines OPC partners have been successful in laying the ground for the trade union in the fishing sector to be recognized by the City Fisheries and Aquatic Resources and Management Council (CFARMC) in Mindanao. As a result they are now an active participant in this council as an appointed member which is an important result in light of the very harsh working environment for fishermen in the war-torn island Mindanao. Just transition and climate change has been given increased attention in several OPC programmes in 2023. A wide set of activities was introduced such as lobbying for the involvement of citizens in municipal climate initiatives, ensuring that the transition from dirty to clean public transport vehicles includes job creation for the transport workforce, that is presently engaged in high pollution public transport. In Namibia, the Metal and Allied Namibian Workers Union managed to get a seat on the government commission that will draft new legislation in the field of work environment. A bill is to be presented in 2024. In the Western Balkans 80% of all OPC partners have been involved in climate action. Many partners have been organizing lectures and raising awareness and understanding of Just Transition principles. In Somalia, the OPC trade union partner played an important role in pushing for the introduction of a social security systems for the countrys citizens. For the first time, Somali workers will have access to public social security systems that mitigates the effects of poverty, crises and climate disasters. In the area of the promotion of peace and dialogue OPC and partners helped reduce the risk for political tension and divide in elections by creating local peace committees that played a key role in supporting communities to stay peaceful. The activities has also focused on decreasing communal tensions due to discrimination. The OPC partner in Turkey provide alternative capacity building for marginalized Roma youth which has also targeted decision-makers to increase their understanding of issues related to discrimination, social inclusion, and the development of targeted policies for the Roma population. Finally the programme also contributed to increasing the awareness on gender equality and women's rights. In 2023, partners across several regions, placed emphasis on making visible the increase in violence against women and negotiating the inclusion of parental leave rights in the legislation on employment. Examples of results provided by OPC partners include challenging gender stereotypes regarding care work in South Africa, advocacy and campaigning for LGBTQ rights in Western Balkans and Turkey including support to safety measures for victims of femicide and gender based violence in the Balkans and South Africa.
