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.

When the Mexican Association to Help Children with Cancer was created in 1982 there was no model to follow in Mexico. Latin America was almost completely devoid of non-governmental organizations to support treatment for children with cancer. In the early years AMANC aided treatment with anticancer drugs based on three convictions. The first refers to the right childhood cancer patients have to receive the best available treatment. The second corresponds to high survival and therapeutic success chances provided treatment is timely and effective. The third refers to lack of resources in public hospitals in Mexico, that subjects patients and their families to additional stress and enormous difficulties they must endure during long periods of cancer treatment and surveillance. Those convictions served to define AMANC's mission "That no Mexican child or adolescent under age 20 with cancer, with limited economic resources and without access to social security, shall lack optimal support to defeat cancer." For the past 31 years this paradigm has distinguished AMANC not only as the pioneer organization in Mexico in helping children and adolescents with cancer but also as the first to ensure that their parents and other family members also receive psychological and other services necessary to ensure that they carry through their child's treatment and subsequent medical surveillance period. So that, our Mission is That all disadvantaged Mexican citizens under twenty years and diagnosed with cancer receive optimal and timely support during their treatment and healing and be fully integrated back into their communities. Providing patients under 20 years old, comprehensive care throughout the time that they may need it, including relapses, until recovery is achieved, helping them to renew the course of their lives through education and family health lessons to become agents for social change in their communities Our vision is that in the medium term all children and adolescents with cancer receive quality Comprehensive Care, in a location that is as close to their homes as possible, through the AMANC SYSTEM.
Our mission: To generate and guide the processes of social transformation by educating children, young people, and their families. Our vision: To be a self-sustainable educational community with an exponentially increasing impact on the socioeconomic development of high-risk communities through particular attention to children, adolescents, and young people Our programs provide educational services, from primary through high school and preparatory levels, to the Morelos population of children, adolescents, and young adults living in vulnerable socio-economic situations. We benefit more than 1,320 students in four municipalities by applying a humanistic model integrating education with a risk prevention program based on three main axes: training for peace, solidarity, and hope. Monthly internal cost per student: 1,622.25 pesos 81% of our students have scholarships We provide Primary, Secondary, Preparatorio, Universidad, and Post-Grad The Don Bosco Community Our community includes a scholarship program on our four campuses: Cuernavaca, Emiliano Zapata, Popotlan, and Colonia Juan Morales. These scholarships benefit 81% of our students, with the scholarship percentage calculated in relation to individual financial needs. For the past ten years, we have offered education to the children of Mixtec artisans who live in the "El Chiflon" ravine in Chulavista. Don Bosco's agreement with "El Centro Educativo La Buena Tierra" allows children from the former train tracks in Cuernavaca to continue their studies at the middle and high school levels. Through various agreements with Morelos's universities, Don Bosco's graduates are guaranteed access to both public and private universities. In the past five years, our Educaton program has allowed 821 students over 18 to obtain their Baccalaureate Certificate by Agreement 286 of the SEP. To date, Don Bosco has two economically productive projects: a bazaar and a water purification plant. These projects directly benefit the foundation and the nearby community. Juan Morales Rural Campus The Juan Bosco Digital Baccalaureate, located on the Juan Morales campus, began operations in 2016 at the request of the neighborhood's inhabitants in Yecapixtla, Morelos. Through a permanent commitment with UNAM five generations of students have graduated with a Preparatory degree, with a student continuity rate between grades trending at 98% Each school year, an average of 100 students study a curriculum based on the B@UNAM high school model in conjunction with the Don Bosco Foundation's humanistic model to provide comprehensive academic, psychological, and emotional support from a perspective of restorative justice and a risk prevention approach based on a Culture of Peace. Popotlan Rural Campus In 2015, the Popotlan High School opened its doors in Temoac, Morelos. Since this community had no viable high school options for young people, the Don Bosco Foundation proposed opening a high school using the same digital model developed in San Juan with UNAM. Most of the parents of our students at this campus are farmers or employees of the Huazulco candy factories. In this school year (24-25), 44 students are pursuing their high school degree through the B@UNAM agreement.
RES NON VERBA ASOCIACION CIVIL (known as Civic House) is an international nonprofit organization that provides a space for creation and collaboration to boost and integrate high-impact civic innovation initiatives, promoting and supporting their sustainability. Civic House aims to gather a community of initiatives that use technology for social change, striving to make the Latin American region more equitable. Within Civic House, there are several initiatives as shown on its website, https://www.civic.house/en. All these initiatives share the same legal personality, as Civic House provides legal, accounting, and administrative support, allowing the initiatives to focus solely on impact. The grant we are applying for, in partnership with 3M under their 3M Impact Post-Project Support, is related to the Ada ITW initiative. Since 2017, Ada ITW has been committed to reducing the gender gap in the tech world by providing technology training to women and assisting them in their job integration process. Over the past seven years, we have trained more than 30,000 women, nearly 60% of whom are now employed in the IT sector. We offer a range of courses and bootcamps in technology, along with payment ease programs and full scholarships for women and femininities who cannot afford these courses. We collaborate closely with hundreds of social organizations in the region to facilitate job placement. As our training is delivered virtually, our reach is regional, only limited by language barriers. I would also like to note that the financial statements and legal documentation we will present belong to Civic House (RES NON VERBA), while the annual budget we will share pertains to Ada ITW internally.
