WISDOM FOR CHANGE We believe in the possibility of being in the world more wisely, for the benefit of all sentient beings and the entire ecosystem. Wisdom, which allows us to recognize the interconnectedness of all phenomena, is the tool by which we can build a more equitable and compassionate society. Our name tells our mission. Wise in English means "wise," dana in Indian pali language means "to give." Wisedana therefore means "to give wisely". While remaining a secular organization, our values and activities are within the Buddhist philosophical perimeter. We encourage the practice of mindful generosity, which according to various Buddhist schools is the first of the virtues to be cultivated in order to overcome ignorance, understood as the main culprit of suffering in the world. Generosity is thus a tool that has an extraordinary transformative power, capable of building effective responses to the most important social problems. Wisedana is an international philanthropic foundation that draws on the values of the Buddhist tradition while expressing itself in a secular form. It caters to philanthropists who wish to be active in building a more equitable, wise and compassionate world by promoting systemic changes in humanitarian, ecological, social, educational, cultural, and fragility care. As Wisedana Foundation, we intend to be the catalysts for systemic change inspired by the values of the Buddhist tradition, leading to the elimination of suffering and major critical issues in the world today. Our role is to identify the actors, synergies, resources and strategies to achieve this and to connect them with the right philanthropists, men and women of our time who wish to nurture the seeds of wise change. We therefore intend to act both as a "quality advisor" capable of recognizing and supporting systemic change in all its activities, and as a "philanthropic actor" in synergy internationally with key stakeholders interested in supporting systemic change toward a wiser world. By "systemic change" we mean a strategy for responding to problems that starts by conceiving of each critical issue as a complex system, which must therefore be addressed through a multilateral and multidisciplinary analysis. The result of this composite analysis is a strategy of approaching the problem from multiple perspectives, taking into consideration all the actors involved and questioning the sustainability of the proposed solution. The value framework of Buddhism allows for a full understanding of the complexity of reality: every being is naturally connected to all others in a relationship of infinite reciprocity, and every arrangement of the world is only temporary and constantly changing. In accepting this condition-now increasingly evident in globalized society-we understand that the only way to effectively intervene in the world is precisely through systemic change. The tool we use is generosity (or philanthropy, which is its organized form) as an experience of relationship toward the other, as a powerful gesture of transformation capable of activating the vocation of individuals to participate in the common good and social change.

KOPF, HAND + FUSS gGmbH (KHuF) is a nonprofit organization based in Berlin, Germany, dedicated to shaping a society in which inclusion is not just an idea but a lived reality. Since its founding in 2010, KHuF has worked to promote full and equal participation of people with disabilities and disadvantages by removing barriers and creating inclusive, empowering spaces. At the core of KHuF's mission is a deep belief in the value of diversity and the right of all individuals to access education, employment, and community life. The organization sees difference not as a deficit, but as a strength - and strives to create environments where people can thrive, regardless of their physical, cognitive, social, or cultural background. KHuF's work spans four main areas, each contributing to a comprehensive strategy for greater inclusion: Digital Projects KHuF develops barrier-free digital tools that support learning, communication, and empowerment. These include: IRMGARD, an app that helps adults with limited literacy learn to read and write. LAYA - Learn As You Are, an inclusive eLearning platform accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities. HANDschrift, a learning platform in German Sign Language (DGS) to improve written language skills among Deaf adults. AInfach, a project exploring how artificial intelligence can support people with learning difficulties in their working lives. Inclusion Quiz, a multilingual digital tool for accessible and playful learning about inclusion. Inclusive Coworking Space - TUECHTIG With TUECHTIG, KHuF operates a unique coworking and event space that is fully accessible and explicitly designed to welcome people with and without disabilities. It fosters collaboration, visibility, and a sense of community. The space also hosts The Soul Office, a project offering direct psychological support in the workplace. Academy KHuF provides free and inclusive educational workshops and trainings in Berlin that raise awareness, reduce prejudice, and empower participants. These are co-led by experts with lived experience (people with disabilities) and cover topics such as accessibility, communication, mental health, and inclusive work environments. Projects like SPEED and Soul Mate additionally focus on youth empowerment and inclusive mental health support, respectively. Inclusion Consulting KHuF offers hands-on consulting services to public institutions, nonprofits, and businesses looking to implement inclusion effectively. This includes participatory website audits, inclusive design, organizational change processes, and workshops on inclusive communication and accessibility. Across all of these areas, KHuF works with a large and diverse team of experts - many of whom bring their own experiences of disability or marginalization. The goal is to ensure that inclusion is never a top-down process, but something shaped with those who are directly affected. Values That Drive the Work KHuF's mission is guided by these core values: Participation - Everyone should be able to contribute and be heard. Equity - Not the same for everyone, but fair for each person. Respect - For different perspectives, lived experiences, and needs. Openness - To new ideas, people, and approaches. Empowerment - Supporting people to gain confidence, skills, and autonomy. Innovation - Using creative and digital solutions to remove barriers. Our Vision KHuF envisions a society where inclusion is the norm, not the exception. A society in which people are not defined by their limitations, but recognized for their abilities, talents, and contributions. To get there, KHuF builds bridges: between people and ideas, between problems and solutions, and between diverse life worlds. "Our goal is to build bridges - between people, ideas, and lived experiences - and between challenge and solution."
