Women Win's vision is that of a world in which every adolescent girl and young woman fully exercises her rights. Our mission is to advance the playing field that empowers girls through sport and play. Women Win is the global leader in girls and women's empowerment through sport. We leverage the power of play to help adolescent girls and young women build leadership skills and become better equipped to exercise their rights. Since 2007, we have impacted the lives of 2,822,400 adolescent girls and young women directly and indirectly in over 100 countries. This is possible thanks to collaborations with a wide variety of grassroots women's organisations, companies, development organisations, sports bodies and government agencies. Women Win currently supports initiatives in Asia, Africa, Middle East, North and South America. Our work is focused on empowering girls and young women through sport, emphasising the prevention of gender-based violence, sexual and reproductive health and rights, and economic empowerment. In practice this involves developing high quality specialised tools and curricula; delivering training and capacity building workshops; monitoring and evaluation tools and systems development; and providing strategic and programmatic support. Women Win invests in and manages a diverse portfolio of global partners with approximately 1.5 million euros of direct funding granted annually.

Torrington Drive Community Association was first formed in 1989 and became a charity in 1995 and over the last 34 years has aimed to support and empower residents and members of the community to voice and tackle concerns centring around poverty, social isolation and education. Initially started to support the Torrington Drive Estate in Halewood it has expanded over the past 10 years taking on the former New Hutte Primary School as its own Asset, now ran as the New Hutte Neighbourhood Centre, which houses many of the services which meet the needs of the wider Halewood Community. Our services ensure that residents have access to regular social contact and support within the community. Many of our residents are vulnerable and live in poverty and we provide them with a vital contact point in which we can help them to access further help if it is needed or to provide direct support to them utilising our on site services or via groups and teams based at our New Hutte site. Through our interaction we are able to offer a wide array of support packages including training and coordinated help.

Young Women's Trust champions young women aged 18 to 30 on low or no pay. We're here to create a more equal world of work and raise young women's incomes. We tackle sexism and misogyny, with and for anyone who has experienced this. We offer young women free coaching, feedback on job applications and information to help them get where they want to be. We bring together a network of thousands of young women to support each other, build their self-belief, and have their voices heard. We work with young women and anyone who experiences misogyny and sexism to campaign for equality in the workplace. And our research provides insight into what young women's lives are really like, fuelling our campaigns for change.

3X3 Unites: We believe that major developments arise by embracing the small. We believe that inspiring and supporting young people in a healthy and sporty way leads to a better world. We do this by being a source of inspiration (top sports performance, exemplary organization and making (basketball) accessible to all athletes), by using our knowledge for the design of the public domain (outdoor courts), but above all by offering leadership programs to young people (life-skills development), to create jobs and to allow them to develop and implement 3X3 activities themselves in the neighborhood on squares, within the schools, through associations, youth organizations and others who need them. We strive for an inclusive sports climate in which gender, origin, level of education, orientation and limitations to perform regular sports are not important. 3X3 is pre-eminently an accessible and inclusive form of sport. Stichting (foundation) 3X3 Unites is founded on August 3rd 2016 in Amsterdam. Currently we are still based in Amsterdam. In 2019 3X3 Unites reached more than ten thousand of young people in the Netherlands, Libanon and Botswana. We have the ambition to reach tens of thousands on site of young people worldwide by 2021 and are proud to start the partnership with the Nike Foundation - Made To Play already in 2020. We look forward to start April 2020 and keep on developing in Amsterdam and after this globally in the coming years with all our partners.
To ensure we use our knowledge and resources to make a positive and decisive difference to people, communities and organisations, with a vision to be an excellent, accessible, globally engaged University contributing positively to a thriving Northern economy.
