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.

War Child Holland

We believe no child should be part of war. Ever. Children have the right to grow up in peace, free from fear and violence. To develop their full potential and become the person they want to be. War Child is committed to improve life of hundreds of thousands children in conflicted areas. War Child helps them to process their intense experiences, dare to reconnect with other children again and build self-confidence. They ensure that they learn how to read, write, count and learn a trade. Besides that, they create a safe environment where children can build a stable and above all, peaceful future. War Child does this worldwide. From Colombia to Afghanistan. Not because they like it that much. But because children are entitled to it. That is why they offer psychosocial support, education and protection to refugee and vulnerable children in fourteen countries. Because every child is entitled to a place where they can play safely, learn and recover from all misery.

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.

STORE SCHOOLS & PROJECTS C.I.C.

STORE is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company run as an association of designers, architects and artists who share a common goal: supporting more young people from disadvantaged backgrounds applying to creative courses, and addressing the social imbalance in art, design and architecture education. STORE STORE is our design shop and workshop space in Camden and Hackney. STORE offers an extensive portfolio of offerings for young people in London: STORE STORE after school club: The free art, design and architecture After School Clubs give young people from state schools in London, with priority given to pupil premium students, a unique chance to see their ideas go from imagination to reality, from initial concept through to design, prototype, manufacture and retail. The objects designed and prototyped in the After School Club are showcased in the shop, with royalties going to the students. We have run workshops in glass blowing, 3D printing, mycelium, milk plastic, bio plastics, pattern cutting and ceramics. These after school clubs help to supplement a students portfolio for university applications. Online after school club: Our free online After School Club program allows state school students across the country to take part, with maker kits sent out to each student. Last year we ran After School Clubs in digital animation, chocolate casting, 3D scanning, game design, augmented reality and Arduino coding and an architectural reading group in Minecraft. One day workshops in State schools: The free One Day Workshop program is a series of workshops run in state schools aimed at introducing young people to higher education in design and architecture. A series of technical manuals are compiled to accompany the program as documentation the students can use at university interviews while also acting as recipes for teachers and students to replicate the processes explored in the workshops. 2 week long architectural summer schools: Our free summer schools are collaborative design and construction projects which engage actively with the dynamics of the local communities they take place in. Our summer schools programs are open to state school students across the country. Portfolio preparation workshops: Every winter break we run portfolio preparation workshops for young people who are considering applying to university. We bring in tutors from universities and the admissions process to support students with compiling their portfolios and to give them advice about the different universities and courses that are available to them. STORE STORE Build: STORE STORE Build is a small-scale building project, run as an educational program, where the students taught have an active role in the delivery of the architectural project - from the planning and design phases to the actual construction of a building, all through a program of after school clubs over five years. This is a project that looks to up-skill a generation of Hackney's young people about their built environment, giving them a voice in how their communities are designed and built.
