he World Federation of the Deaf (WFD) is an international non-governmental organisation representing and promoting approximately 70 million deaf people's human rights worldwide. The WFD is a federation of deaf organisations from 134 nations; its mission is to promote the human rights of deaf people and full, quality and equal access to all spheres of life, including self-determination, sign language, education, employment and community life. WFD has a consultative status in the United Nations and is a founding member of International Disability Alliance (IDA).

Important themes are covered in these 2 documents which strive to ensure that we create access for all deaf people to all ways of life in "a world where deaf people everywhere can sign anywhere" (vision).

To realise our mission and vision, the following are part of our Action Plan 2023-2027: Building Capacity across the Globe: ensuring increased participation of women, youth and underrepresented communities; provide effective capacity building projects to countries who are not yet members to assist them with creating their own national deaf associations so that they can represent themselves in their countries; Putting Deaf people on the Agenda: the WFD will continue to strive to put deaf human rights at the forefront of all representation internationally, including at the UN; we will effectively promote International Week of Deaf people and be ready to response to deaf people's needs in times of crises, disasters and war. Realising nothing about us without us: the WFD continues to be the leading authority for deaf people and sign languages and has committed to developing resources to assist deaf people raise awareness in their countries. Achieving Sign Language Rights for all: National sign languages are fundamental to achieving deaf people's human rights. We will aim to assist our member states in promoting the legal recognition of signed language in the country and advocate for early childhood language acquisition and inclusive multilingual education policies.

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.

There are five points to the ADAP's mission: 1) Secure the rights of local populations and promote inclusive governance of protected areas and natural resources. 2) Encourage, wherever possible, the introduction of participative governance approaches that provide a link between local, national, and global levels and help to reduce conflict. 3) Enhance the value of natural resources by developing sustainable production chains and fair remuneration systems. 4) document and disseminate the impact, learning and knowledge of the actions. 5) Contribute to national and global policy debates on protected areas, biodiversity conservation and the role of local populations.

What we do: We are tackling two global problems at the same time: Plastic pollution and extreme poverty. We initiate events where the local population in Ghana, Nicaragua and India can pay for hot meals with plastic bottles. At the same time, they are made aware of environmental issues such as plastic pollution. First and foremost, we are dedicated to the United Nations Development Goals 1(No Poverty) and 12(Sustainable Production and Consumption). Our vision is to create a self-functioning cycle in which we process the collected plastic bottles into new products and reintegratethem into the production chainthrough sales. How we do it: "Think globally and act locally." This quote from Jane Goodhall describes our mission very well. We tackle global problems and transform them into locally adaptable solutions. This is how we have already introduced our concept on three different continents. In our outreach countries Nicaragua, Ghana and India, monthly events are held where the local population can exchange 20 plastic bottles for food. Plastic serves as currency and is exchanged for balanced food provided by the local team on site. We contribute to the solution of plastic pollution by giving plastic a value. To close the loop, we further process the collected plastic into beautiful and useful products. Our first product from Nicaragua is a surf comb for the local surf community. In Ghana, we make handmade outdoor blankets from recycled sachets & cotton fabrics. At the same time, we engage local people by creating jobs for our event organization and in upcyclingfactory . But for us, the solution does not stop at recycling. We believe that education and awareness raising for a more conscious use of plastic is the key to long-term change. We want to learn from each other and seek dialogue with the community. Where we are active: "We did not choose the countries, they chose us." Our activities are concentrated in the countries of Ghana, Nicaragua and India. Locals from each country contacted us to implement the concept in their country because they were convinced from the beginning that it would work in their communities. To date, we also receive many requests from other countries, but in order to professionalise the organisation in all three existing locations, we have decided to limitour work to Nicaragua, Ghana and India for the next 3 years.
