Founded in 2018, the ITTF Foundation was created by the International Table Tennis Federation as an independent nonprofit organization. The Foundation aims to create positive impacts through table tennis in communities worldwide. The ITTF Foundation operates through five programs to foster development through table tennis, contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The team tirelessly designs and implements initiatives that promote inclusivity, education, and empowerment, ensuring that the sport becomes a catalyst for positive social change. As a nonprofit organization we collaborate closely with local project implementation partners while we assist with planning, financial support, and knowledge sharing.

The Philippines Partnership for Sustainable Agriculture (PPSA) is a multi-stakeholder partnership platform initiated by Grow Asia, a regional platform for inclusive and sustainable agriculture development in Southeast Asia catalyzed by the World Economic Forum and the ASEAN Secretariat. Grow Asia's goal is to reach smallholder farmers in ASEAN through its Country Partnerships like the PPSA to build regional and country partnerships and broker market-driven solutions for more inclusive, resilient, and sustainable food systems in Southeast Asia. PPSA was formally launched by Grow Asia together with the Philippine Department of Agriculture and through the collective efforts of various stakeholders. PPSA, with the Department of Agriculture and East West Seed as its Co-Chairs, has brought together more than 160 organizations, reaching more than 120,000 smallholders through commodity Working Groups (WGs) focused on Coconut, Coffee, Corn, Vegetables, Rice and Fisheries as well as cross-cutting or thematic working groups on Agri-financing, Digital Agriculture, and the Learning Alliance. Since its beginnings in 2015, PPSA has been driving partnerships that work on value chain studies, knowledge sharing, and market linkage. The latter being the most identified value it brings not only to the core members, but to an extended network of market players, from multinational companies, cooperatives, farmer associations, groups, and individual farmers. The monetary value realized by companies, and farmers alike resulting from the market linkaging initiatives facilitated marks the index of the greater benefit it gives to the lives, families, communities, and localities of the farmer producers, while also contributing to the larger spectrum of value chain development, and stable market for food security in the country. As PPSA moves forward in positioning itself as an enabler of multi-stakeholder partnerships for sustainable and inclusive food systems that empower and transform smallholder farmers to be self-reliant and resilient, we seek to harness the collective strength of agricultural value chain players towards transforming food systems to become climate positive and inclusive through market-driven solutions. We do this through our three work streams on: GrowTogether - As a multi-stakeholder platform, we build a synergy of committed partners towards increased adoption of inclusive value chain models and sustainable innovations for agriculture; GrowBetter - We organize and facilitate knowledge management programs to build/enhance the capacities of partners, including smallholders, in support of scaling inclusive value chain models, and promoting and facilitating increased assistance to smallholder farmers; and GrowAgri - We facilitate action-oriented dialogues with policymakers and public/private stakeholders to enhance policies and plans towards increased and responsible investments for agriculture.

Every day, lives are changed by a single, selfless act - the gift of organ donation. Among those waiting for transplants are 2 groups of people: those who die waiting and those who receive the gift of life. Our work raises awareness of the urgent need for organ and tissue donors while helping recipients who have overcome the impossible to live life to the fullest. These individuals have faced life's greatest challenges; they are advocates for the cause but need resources, education and community. Transplant recipients have a unique opportunity to advocate for organ donation and raise awareness. Physical activity plays a crucial role in the recovery and long-term health of recipients. When recipients compete in world events, they demonstrate to the world what can be achieved through the gift of organ donation. Additionally, our programs provide recipients with community, tools, and resources to address the many challenges they face, leading to an increased quality of life. The WTGF promotes amateur sport amongst recipients, living donors and donor families; promoting the study of transplantation; educating the public and raising awareness of the world shortage of donor organs; sharing new knowledge from biological/clinical studies; promotion of mental and moral improvement for recipients, living donors and donor families; fostering international friendship and relations.

Established in 2004, Blue Dragon Children's Foundation protects and empowers children and adults who are victims or at-risk of trafficking. We rescue those who are homeless or have been trafficked for sexual and labour exploitation, providing them with immediate safety and comprehensive after-care support. Our holistic approach addresses the unique needs of each individual, offering services such as counselling, shelter, education, vocational training, employment opportunities, and everything else they need to live their lives and thrive. Beyond rescue and care, Blue Dragon collaborates with impoverished and at-risk communities to strengthen their resilience against trafficking and exploitation. By combining direct intervention with long-term prevention programs, we aim to reduce risks, protect vulnerable groups and create safer environments for children and families. Additionally, we draw on our experiences to advocate for systemic change, working toward improved policies and laws that protect children and youth across Vietnam. In 2024, we achieved significant milestones, expanding our operations to three new locations: Ho Chi Minh City, Nghe An province in central Vietnam, and Bac Lieu province in the Mekong Delta. With the continued support of our global community, we are reaching more children and families in need than ever, helping them overcome crises and build brighter futures.

BATIK International is a solidarity association that works to strengthen the power of choice and action of vulnerable individuals and communities in France and internationally, in order to contribute to more egalitarian and inclusive societies. To this end, the association aims to support empowerment processes, particularly for women and gender minorities, youth, and migrants, to reveal their talents, so that they regain the power to build a better future and become agents of transformation in their lives. This work is reinforced by rights promotion, awareness-raising, and advocacy initiatives that promote lasting and sustainable solutions, and by any other means likely to contribute to the fight for social justice and equality. To ensure the sustainability of the actions implemented, we also offer support to our partners, civil society organizations in the regions where the programs are implemented. Because women find themselves at the intersection of several inequalities, the association places gender equality at the heart of its actions.
