Club of Rome

The organisation reflects its members' shared concern for the future of humanity and the planet. The association sees its task as acting as an independent, global catalyst for change. The objectives of the Association are therefore: to identify the key issues that are critical to the future of humanity; to evaluate alternative scenarios for the future and assess risks, choices and opportunities through integrated and forward-looking analyses; to develop and propose practical solutions to the identified challenges; to communicate new insights and knowledge from these analyses to decision-makers in the public and private sectors, as well as to the wider public; to stimulate public debate and effective action to improve the prospects for the future of humanity and the planet. The Association's activities are guided by the following three complementary principles: 1. the need to adopt a global, systems-oriented perspective in analysing the problems facing the modern world, recognising that the increasing interdependence of nations and the globalisation of previously local problems create challenges that are beyond the capacity of individual countries. 2. the need for a comprehensive, holistic approach in order to gain a deeper understanding of the complexity and interconnectedness of both current problems and practical solutions, in political, social, economic, technological, environmental, psychological and cultural terms, which the association refers to as the 'world problematique'. 3. the need to emphasise transdisciplinary and long-term perspectives, which are all too often neglected by governments and other decision-makers, and to focus on those decisions, strategies and measures that will determine the fate of present and future generations. The aim is to arouse public interest and provide responsible decision-makers with a solid basis for formulating and implementing future-oriented measures. The association does not pursue any commercial purposes and does not seek to make a profit.

Asociacion Espanola para los Efectos del Tratamiento del Cancer (ETC)

The AEetc association (known as ETC Association) is a non-profit organisation of parents of children with cancer. Its main objective is to improve the quality of life of children with cancer and adolescents both during treatment and after treatment, when most side-effects start to appear. The life expectancy of a child diagnosed with cancer a few years ago was quite low. However, today many children survive cancer (around 80%) thanks, among other things, to early diagnosis, more precise surgery, more technologically advanced instruments and more effective chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy treatments. New treatments are more effective, but they are also more aggressive, and they leave a mark on children. As life expectancy of children diagnosed with cancer has increased, important long-term side effects have also been identified. They significantly limit children's quality of life: cognitive, physical, emotional and, consequently, social effects. The name ETC has a double meaning. On the one had, it is the acronym in Spanish for "cancer treatment side-effects" (Efectos del Tratamiento del Cancer). On the other hand, ETC means the fight against cancer does not finish when treatment comes to an end. Instead, there is a long "ETC" after treatment that negatively affect our children's quality of life. Side effects are not exclusive to childhood cancer, but children are the most vulnerable group, since they are in the process of intellectual, physical and emotional development. In the case of children diagnosed with brain tumors, mainly those that have been treated with radiotherapy, the consequences are lifelong and progressive.

INICIATIVES SOLIDARIES

The Initiatives Solidaries association began to take shape around 1992 at the initiative of a group of people who were aware of the situation of exclusion of disadvantaged young people and people in a situation of deprivation of liberty in the city of Valencia. These people, involved in different socio-educational projects of the Domus Pacis Association, created Iniciatives Solidaries in July 1993, a non-profit, independent association, with its own legal personality and full capacity to act, administer, dispose of its assets and give a comprehensive response to the problems of the aforementioned group. Based on a common philosophical and methodological affinity, we began with an objective, to prevent situations of social exclusion with minors, young people, prisoners and former prisoners while raising awareness in society about this problem and involving it in change through awareness and volunteering. Since the beginning of its journey, there have been many people who have passed through the entity, many difficulties and needs that have been overcome and many hopes for which it continues to work in favor of prevention, integration of the most disadvantaged and in favor of solidarity. Throughout this time, projects have been consolidated, intervention pathways developed and adapted, networks and collaboration forums expanded; Work has been done for the solidarity of citizens with the most disadvantaged and new channels of social participation have been opened. We managed to be declared a Public Utility Entity in 2009 (NAL 125077). Step by step, programs, work formulas, specialized care, centers, agreements and collaborations have been strengthened. At Initiatives Solidaries we are a non-profit association regulated by LO 1/2002 of March 22, accredited as a Second Chance School of Valencia that has carried out our work since 1993 with the aim of contributing to the social well-being of the community by preventing situations of social exclusion in especially disadvantaged sectors: adolescents, young people at risk of social exclusion and people who are or have been deprived of liberty. To achieve this, we intervene from comprehensive training, developing individualized educational, training and socio-labor insertion itineraries taking into account their needs and difficulties, and which affect the lines of protection of minors, basic education, vocational training, personal and interpersonal competence, information, participation. community, advice and socio-labor guidance through the Second Chance Schools model, pioneering and legitimized, closely linked to the business sector, recognized and supported by public institutions. The scope and extension of Initiatives Solidares is national, developing our actions mainly in the Valencian Community. The entity has three centers that are located in the city of Valencia, in the neighborhoods of Torrefiel, Benimamet and Tres Forques, and two inside the Valencia Penitentiary Center, located in the town of Picassent. In addition, we have a large multidisciplinary team, made up of professionals from the social and volunteer fields, working in networks with different entities and organizations in the social, labor and educational fields to achieve our goals. Initiatives Solidaries aims to: Promote the Social Well-being of the Community, through educational, training, guidance and counseling actions, aimed at the culturally, socially and economically disadvantaged population: childhood, adolescence, youth, families, women, migrants, long-term unemployed people, prisoners and ex-prisoners who are in a situation of social exclusion. Facilitate the social and/or labor insertion of the most culturally, socially and economically disadvantaged population: childhood, adolescence, youth, families, long-term unemployed people, prisoners and former prisoners who are in a situation of social exclusion. Promote volunteering and citizen participation among professionals and the general population through training and awareness actions and in the business community through agreements, conventions, collaborations and/or specific actions or within the framework of corporate social responsibility (CSR). .
