Seva Mandir

Seva Mandir's mission is to make real the idea of society consisting of free and equal citizens who are able to come together and solve the problems that affect them in their particular contexts. The commitment is to work for a paradigm of development and governance that is democratic and polyarchic. Seva Mandir seeks to institutionalise the idea that development and governance is not only to be left to the State and its formal bodies like the legislature and the bureaucracy, but that citizens and their associations should engage separately and jointly with the State. The mission briefly, is to construct the conditions in which citizens of plural backgrounds and perspectives can come together and deliberate on how they can work to benefit and empower the least advantaged in society.

Foundation For Environmental Education

Established in 1981, the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) is one of the world's largest environmental education organisations, with over 100 member organisations in 81 countries. At the heart of the FEE are our five programmes. Coordinated by the Head Office in Copenhagen and implemented by our members around the world, our programmes aim to bring positive change on a global scale: The internationally recognized Eco-Schools programme engages young people in quality environmental education and meaningful action. Through a seven-step framework, pupils are empowered and motivated to drive change and improve environmental awareness in their school, local community and beyond. Close to 50,000 schools around the world are part of the Eco-Schools programme. Learning about Forests (LEAF) advocates for outdoor learning and hands-on experiences, allowing students to connect with nature and develop a deeper understanding of the natural world. While the LEAF programme started with a focus on tree-based ecosystems, today it includes a diversity of ecosystems to foster skills and knowledge by exposing learners to outdoor experiences. LEAF is implemented in 28 countries. Young Reporters for the Environment (YRE) is an award-winning programme that empowers young people to take an educated stand on environmental issues they feel strongly about and gives them a platform to articulate these issues through the media of writing, photography and video. Over 300,000 students engage in the YRE programme yearly. The iconic Blue Flag programme is one of the world's most recognized eco-tourism awards for beaches, marinas, and tourist boat operators. In order to qualify for the Blue Flag, a series of stringent environmental, educational, safety, and accessibility criteria must be met and maintained. Over 5,000 beaches, marinas and tourism boats are currently awarded. Green Key is a voluntary eco-certification programme. With more than 4,000 certified hotels and other establishments in 60 countries, Green Key is the leading standard for excellence in the field of environmental responsibility and sustainable operation within the tourism and hospitality industry. With 40 years of impactful experience in Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), FEE's strategic plan - GAIA 20:30 - prioritises climate action across all five programmes to address the urgent threats of climate change, biodiversity loss and environmental pollution. FEE's Environmental Education Principles The member organisations of FEE have agreed upon these principles to guide our work towards excellence in EE/ESD: 1. Ensure that participants are engaged in the learning/teaching process. 2. Encourage participants to make reasonable decisions and actions on real life sustainability issues. 3. Encourage participants to work together actively and involve their communities in collaborative solutions. 4. Support participants to examine their assumptions, knowledge, and experiences, in order to develop critical thinking and to be open to change. 5. Encourage participants to be aware of cultural practices as an integral part of sustainability issues. 6. Encourage participants to share inspirational stories of their achievements, failures, and values, to learn from them and to support each other. 7. Continuously explore, test and share innovative approaches, methodologies, and techniques. 8. Ensuring continuous improvements through monitoring and evaluating are central focus of our programmes. FEE's overall Mission is to engage and empower people through education in collaboration with our members and partners worldwide.

Exitcirklen - Veje ud af psykisk vold ( Exitcircle - Ways out of psychological violence)

Mission Our mission is to strengthen people in order to help them live a life without emotional abuse and social control. We challenge the vicious circles of abuse that keep victims stuck in a pattern of emotional abuse and social control. Through acquiring the right cognitive skills and sharing life stories with others in similar situations, it is possible to find a way out of the vicious circles of abuse. Vision Our vision is to make The Exit Circle a nationwide program, available for all victims of emotional abuse. Via our preventive work with help to self-help therapy groups we eliminate the risk that the emotional abuse will escalate, and by doing so, save society a great deal of money. Values We have a holistic approach and base our work on the values: Community, Empowerment and Breaking down Hierarchies. Community A solution to observations of loneliness and the taboo around abuse. Storytelling - sharing your story openly in a community as part of the healing and recovery process is unique to The Exit Circle and is acknowledged around the world as an effective form of therapy. There is silence around emotional abuse because it is still a taboo. Taboos and silence are broken by openness and honesty. Instead of individuals secretly struggling alone, it is possible to help each other in the community. Empowerment A way of mobilizing resources in the users themselves. In a self-help group, each individual is not just a victim or a client, but also a person, sharing his or her experiences and thereby lending a helping hand and spreading hope to others who are in a similar situation. Breaking down Hierarchies A way of helping the participants cope - a way of supporting them and helping them support each other in coping with emotional abuse. The groups are based on the belief that everyone can contribute to the community and that gives The Exit Circle's self-help groups the potential to break helper-victim dichotomies.
