There are many people to mention by name – and everyone who contributed is included in the lists of names annexed to this report – but special mention must be made of Director General Mr. Rui Manuel Exposto, Minister of Social Solidarity, Mr. Shyam Paudel, Chief Technical Advisor-UNDP, Ms Felisberta Moniz da Silva, UNDP Program Manager for Environment and Sustainable Development, Ms. Auxilidora Dos Santos, UNDP Program Analyst for Resilience Building, Mr. Joao Carlos Soares, Director General of Secretary State of Environment , Mr. Adolfredo do Rosario Pereira, National Director of Forestry and Basic Hydrographic Management, Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, Mr. Fernando Araujo, Head of Department for Basic Hydrographic Management, Ms. Flaviana Fernandes, Head of Department for Meteorology and Climatology, Mr. Amandio Paulino Gestao do Rosario de Sousa, Director General of Decentralization Administrative, Mr. Sabino Rua, Director of Bamboo Institute, Mr. Danilo Osorio Maldini Babo, Secretary of Ermera Municipality, Mr. Joao Tilman do Rego, President of Aileu Municipality Authority and Mr. Albertino de Araujo, President of Ainaro Municipality Authority.

We would like to thank Ms. Domingas Ferreira for providing financial information. We are very thankful to all Municipality Officers and Suco Officers of the Project Districts and community Groups for giving their valuable time to talk to us and also for giving information related to the project activities. Thanks also go to every member of the Project team and all community members for giving their valuable time to share their experience on the project implementation. The views expressed in this report are intended to offer an overview of, and some of the lessons learned from this Project as it comes to its conclusion. We have tried to balance thoughts and to offer fair perspectives of what was observed and learned from people far more knowledgeable about the Project and its context than we will ever be. And finally, one of the delights of this sort of work remains that of visiting a new and extremely welcoming country and going home again having made new friends, seen new things, and witnessed with great admiration the dedication and enthusiasm that so many people bring to their work in strengthening community resilience to Climate-induced disasters. We would like to thank them and wish them every success in their continuing endeavours.

  • A Journal of Change in Timor-Leste

Data in this report are drawn from the most recent available statistics from UNICEF and other United Nations agencies, and the Government of Timor-Leste. Cover photograph: © UNICEF Timor-Leste/2019/BSoares Girls take part in the ‘Kick for Identity’ junior football match to promote birth registration in Timor-Leste. © UNICEF Timor-Leste/2019/Helin THREE DECADES OF CHILD RIGHTS This has been a significant year for Timor-Leste. The 30th of August 2019 marked 20 years since the Popular Consultation, the countrywide vote that eventually led to the restoration of the country’s independence in 2002. The two decades that followed this momentous day have had their challenges, but have seen Timor- Leste achieve many milestones. The proportion of Timorese living in poverty reduced from 50 per cent in 2007 to 42 per cent in 2014. However, 49 per cent of children between the ages of 0 and 14 live below the national poverty line as of 2014. Undoubtedly, there is much work that still needs to be done. Towards this goal, UNICEF has worked closely with the Government of Timor- Leste, partners and donors to accelerate progress for children in the country: through the provision of technical and policy advice; advocacy; and supporting modeling initiatives or larger nationwide actions that draw attention to issues children face, drive change, and support actions that can catalyze progress.

  • Analytical Report on Education Timor-Leste Population and Housing Census 2015
    Census 2015 Analytical Report on Education Timor-Leste Population and Housing Census 2015 Thematic Report Volume 11 Education Monograph 2017 Copyright © GDS, UNICEF and UNFPA 2017 Copyright © Photos: Bernardino Soares General Directorate of Statistics (GDS) United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) 1 Executive Summary Education matters. It is the way through which one generation passes on its knowledge, experience and cultural legacy to the next generation. Education has the means to empower individuals and impacts every aspect of life. It is the vehicle to how one develops and understands the world. It creates opportunities for decent work and higher income and is correlated to many other components which can enrich one's quality of life and contribute to happiness, health, mental well-being, civic engagement, home ownership and long-term financial stability. Besides the economic implications, education is a fundamental right of each and every child. It is a matter of fulfilling basic human dignity, believing in the potential of every person and enhancing it with knowledge, learning and skills to construct the cornerstones of healthy human development (Education Matters, 2014)1. It is important to consider those most vulnerable and deprived of learning and ensure they receive the access to education they deserve. Simply stated: all children form an integral part of a country's future and therefore all should be educated. To protect the right of every child to an education, it is crucial to focus on the following components2: a) early learning in pre-schools, b) equal access to education for all children, c) guarantee education for children in conflict or disaster-prone areas and emergencies, d) enhance the quality of the schools, e) create partnerships to ensure funding and support and f) Build a strong education system.

  • Timor Leste – ORGANIC
    Timor Leste – ORGANIC REGION: Ducurai Village, Letefoho Sub-District, Ermera Municipality, Timor-Leste GROWER: 10 producers organized around Café Brisa Serena PROCESSING: Fully washed and dried on raised beds GROWING ALTITUDE: 1250 - 1450 masl PLANT VARIETIES/CULTIVAR: Timor Hybrid, Typica HARVEST PERIOD: June- September CERTIFICATIONS: Organic Timor-Leste, or East Timor, takes up the eastern half of the greater Timor island, part of the Indonesian archipelago and not far from the northern coast of Australia. It is a young republic with a long and chaotic political history, having only achieved full independence in 2002, after almost 500 years of consecutive occupations by the Portuguese, the Dutch, and Indonesia. Timor-Leste’s coffee is small in overall scale but highly significant to the Timorese, 25% of whom rely on coffee production for their livelihood. The island’s inland forests also happen to be historically significant, being the origin of coffee’s most adaptive genetic cross—the Timor Hybrid—a natural breeding of local robusta and typica trees that was identified in the 1920s, and whose vigorous genetics can be found in countless timor-based cultivars in almost every producing country today. The island’s isolation has also allowed for a unique preservation of endemic typica variety coffees, whose purity and diversity resembles that of nearby Papua New Guinea, and expresses similarly in the cup. The greater Timor island is sun-baked and humid along its coast, but the interior quickly rises to lush and rugged highlands, with sharp ridges and vibrant grass-covered slopes. The Ermera municipality is one of the island’s highest in elevation and includes its highest peak, Tatamailau.
