Crossing Borders (CB) is a non-profit, non-partisan civil society organisation. The vision of CB is a world in peace with itself in which diversity is celebrated. The mission is to create dialogue space toward such a world and to build the capacity of youth, media workers and educators to realise the above vision. The overall goal is to enable people with different backgrounds to learn to live together on equal terms. Crossing Borders started as a project in 1999 in Denmark in support of meaningful dialogue between the conflict parties in the Middle East. In response to increased activities and demands for the CB concept and services, it was transformed, in 2004, into a dynamic organization with activities in Denmark and abroad.

Our Mission: Meerbusch hilft e.V. is a non-profit organization committed to supporting people in need throughout the city of Meerbusch, Germany. Since our founding in 2015, we have provided a wide range of services aimed at social support, integration, and the responsible use of resources. While our initial focus was on immediate assistance for the many refugees arriving at that time, we have since expanded our mission to promote long-term integration and provide sustainable, community-based aid. What We Do: We offer comprehensive support services for individuals and families in need, regardless of origin or background. Our key areas of focus include: Language Education: Free German language classes for refugees to improve communication and integration. Support for Children: Activities and learning support for children from low-income families. Community Engagement: Social programs such as the "Women's Cafe" and intercultural "Community Evenings" to foster dialogue and inclusion. Daily Life Assistance: Our main office serves as a contact point for practical help and advice related to bureaucracy, job search, internships, housing, and more. Food Distribution and Essential Services: Since 2017, we have operated the Meerbusch TAFEL - a food bank with three distribution centers in Buderich, Osterath, and Lank-Latum - currently supporting around 250 households (approximately 800 individuals). We maintain close contact with all refugee housing facilities in Meerbusch and even manage one accommodation site ourselves in Lank-Latum. Additional services include: A clothing depot for those in need of proper clothing A bike repair and donation service A cultural ticket program, offering access to cultural and sports events for people who otherwise could not afford them The "Meerbusch hilft Marktplatz", an online donation platform for household goods, furniture, and appliances Education and Digital Access: We have equipped students from low-income families with loaner laptops and tablets and expanded our homework and tutoring program. We also employ university students to provide tutoring, thereby supporting both the students in need and the tutors financially. Collaboration and Sustainability: We stand for a coordinated, sustainable, and cross-district culture of care. We actively collaborate with other local organizations such as Caritas, Diakonie, and Pappkarton, as well as with sports clubs and community groups across Meerbusch.

The Kreisau-Initiative e.V. was founded 1989 to address the need for international understanding, democratic education, and active engagement in human rights, particularly in response to Europe's history of division, conflict, and authoritarianism. The Kreisau-Initiative is committed to promoting democracy, human rights, social inclusion, and sustainability through international educational programs and cross-cultural dialogue. Rooted in the legacy of the Kreisau Circle, a German resistance group against Nazism, its mission is to empower individuals - especially young people - to actively shape just, inclusive, and democratic societies. At its core, the Kreisau-Initiative responds to persistent social challenges such as discrimination, social exclusion, extremism, and a lack of opportunities for youth participation in shaping democratic, inclusive societies. Recognizing that many young people - especially those from marginalized backgrounds - face barriers to education, empowerment, and cross-cultural exchange, the organization promotes non-formal education as a tool for social change. Today, the need for fostering social cohesion, gender equality, human rights awareness, and sustainability remains as urgent as ever. The Kreisau-Initiative continues to address these challenges by creating spaces for learning, dialogue, and action, empowering individuals to become active, responsible members of a democratic and diverse Europe. The organization's priority objectives are: - To foster social cohesion by addressing discrimination, exclusion, and extremism. - To promote human rights education and critical engagement with history to strengthen democratic values. - To advance gender equality and support marginalized groups through empowerment and participation. - To encourage socio-ecological transformation, raising awareness of sustainable development and climate justice. - To provide spaces for intercultural exchange, enabling young people to develop skills in dialogue, cooperation, and civic responsibility. Through non-formal education, transnational partnerships, and youth-centered approaches, the Kreisau-Initiative equips participants with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to drive positive social change across Europe and beyond.

If we have to put our mission into generalized terms, they should be interconnectedness and community-building. We create the suitable conditions and occasions through our projects (such as Baba Residence, EMPATHEAST and Social Innovation Challenge) for different people with diverse know-how to meet and start implementing their changemaking skills and look for solutions together in their immediate environment. We seek to engage and connect the most significant cultural and economical agents in order to reach positive social and cultural changes. To connect artists and anthropologists, bussineses and folklore traditions, local authority and people from the villages etc. Since we're devoted to highlighting the local cultural and entrepreneurial potential and resources of different Bulgarian regions/ cities/ villages, our main tendency is to work more and more on-field. In order to be fully able to extract and connect different sectors and cultural actors in a fruitful way, we need to know the problems / challenges from within and with the people who are affected by them and can trigger any possible future change. So to say, one of the main routes of our mission is to nourish slow-movement conscious change within the communities we're part of through both observation and participation. And sometimes this can be achieved through very simple initiatives such as organizing a sedyanka (a traditional Bulgarian work gathering in the villages; working-bee) with young people in the villages or just giving the old ladies a reason and stimulus from a village to start using their looms again and share their knowledge with a young designer.
