"El momento político en el que estamos inmersos; elecciones generales, autonómicas y municipales, es el momento propicio para que nuestras demandas formen parte de los programas y agendas políticas. Estimamos que dichas propuestas han de salir del propio colectivo y en primera persona, de lo contrario, otros hablarán por nosotros y no desde nuestras necesidades. La lucha y las necesidades del colectivo trans se ha visto diluida dentro del colectivo LGTB. Las necesidades y los derechos de este colectivo precisan de actuaciones específicas y contundentes. Es el derecho a la identidad y a la autodeterminación del género, es decir derecho a ser quien se es y se dice ser, el eje sobre el que se sostienen las reivindicaciones de las personas trans." https://www.facebook.com/PlataformaTrans/about_details?locale=es_LA

We seek to achieve this by imagining and delivering innovative and evidence based projects that promote racial equity.

As practitioners, we focus on building projects and programs that are evidence-based, co-designed and are independently evaluated. For many years, we have been active in building community resilience against racism and other forms of discrimination and oppression, online hate, far-right extremism, and hateful mis/disinformation.

"Men Against Violence and Abuse - MAVA has pioneered efforts in India to engage Boys and Men to address issues of gender inequality and discrimination by interrogating the existing dominant model of Masculinity, and help stop prevent gender-based violence against women. Established in 1993, MAVA is working towards building a movement that explores the role of men as ‘partners’ and ‘stakeholders’ – addressing gender issues through cultural advocacy, direct intervention and youth education initiatives. For the past 27 years, MAVA has been engaging and mentoring thousands of young men in schools, colleges and communities in healthy conversations around sexual health and gender-sensitive behavior through leadership–driven training and using out-of-the box methods including interactive workshops, wall-newspapers, story-telling, folk songs, street-theatre, travelling film festivals, youth blogs and other social media. We believe that men are not genetically wired to be dominating and aggressive, but are socially conditioned to be so. Our work, like that of several emerging men’s groups all over the world, shows that men are capable of becoming sensitive human beings and can help prevent and stop gender-based discrimination and violence against women." http://www.mavaindia.org/about.html

"Verden er så rig på mennesker, der kan og vil. Men ekstrem ulighed holder alt for mange af dem fanget uden en chance for at skabe sig en bedre fremtid. I Oxfam Danmark arbejder vi hver dag for at mindske denne ulighed. Det gør vi blandt andet ved at stå på mål for, at alle skal have ret til god uddannelse, at verdens velstand skal fordeles til fordel for flertallet og en mere klimaretfærdig og bæredygtig udvikling. Vi er også tilstede og rykker ud med nødhjælp til ofrene for naturkatastrofer og krig. Alle mennesker har ret til et liv fri for fattigdom og uretfærdighed, og i mere end 50 år har Oxfam Danmark været med til at bringe mennesker håb og stå sammen med dem i kampen for en bedre verden. Vi ser det som en vigtig del af vores opgave at samle de mange danskere, der ønsker at gøre en positiv forskel. Og især føler vi et ansvar for at lave dygtigt undervisningsmateriale, som giver vores børn de bedste muligheder for at kende og forstå den verden, de er en del af." https://oxfam.dk/vores-arbejde

"Over the last 30 years, we have helped create transformative change in the lives of LGBTQ+ people in the UK. Today, we have equal rights to love, marry and have children, and our lives, families and relationships are represented as part of the national curriculum in most of the UK. Our campaigns drive positive change in public attitudes and public policy. We ensure LGBTQ+ people can thrive throughout our lives by building deep, sustained change programmes with the institutions that have the biggest impact on us, whether we’re learning, working, praying or playing sport. We make sure that the world hears and learns from LGBTQ+ communities, and our work is grounded in evidence and expertise. And we’re committed to empowering people to create change in their own communities. We face rising intolerance degrading our hard-won rights. But we won't be silenced. Not until all of us are free to be proud, free to be loved, free to be together, free to be who we are. Our work continues until the world we imagine is the world we live in." https://www.stonewall.org.uk/what-we-stand-for

"Mit dieser Aussage im 31. Journalismus-Kolleg der Österreichischen Medienakademie fing alles an. Das wollten und konnten wir nicht so stehen lassen, denn Social Media kann mehr als Katzenvideos. Rund 80 Prozent der Jugendlichen informieren sich über tagesaktuelles Geschehen in sozialen Netzwerken aber nur 8 Prozent vertrauen ihnen. „Fake News“ vs. „Recherchierte Fakten“ wer kann das schon auf den ersten Blick unterscheiden? Genau DAS wollen wir erreichen! Nach gefühlt tausend Meetings und noch viel mehr Diskussionen gründeten wir am 25. März 2023 ganz offiziell den Verein „ FactJack “. Ein Team aus 8 Journalist:innen hat ein gemeinsames Ziel: die Medienwelt im Kampf gegen Fake News zu unterstützen. Dabei bringen wir viel Erfahrung aus unseren persönlichen Wirkungsbereichen mit. Unser Team wird durch das beratende Gremium, das Advisory Board, ergänzt. In diesem befinden sich bekannte Gesichter aus Journalismus, Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft, der Social-Media Welt und der Politik." https://www.factjack.org/ueber-uns
