The World Transplant Games Federation

Every day, lives are changed by a single, selfless act - the gift of organ donation. Among those waiting for transplants are 2 groups of people: those who die waiting and those who receive the gift of life. Our work raises awareness of the urgent need for organ and tissue donors while helping recipients who have overcome the impossible to live life to the fullest. These individuals have faced life's greatest challenges; they are advocates for the cause but need resources, education and community. Transplant recipients have a unique opportunity to advocate for organ donation and raise awareness. Physical activity plays a crucial role in the recovery and long-term health of recipients. When recipients compete in world events, they demonstrate to the world what can be achieved through the gift of organ donation. Additionally, our programs provide recipients with community, tools, and resources to address the many challenges they face, leading to an increased quality of life. The WTGF promotes amateur sport amongst recipients, living donors and donor families; promoting the study of transplantation; educating the public and raising awareness of the world shortage of donor organs; sharing new knowledge from biological/clinical studies; promotion of mental and moral improvement for recipients, living donors and donor families; fostering international friendship and relations.

The Israeli tech industry is well recognized for its exceptional achievements and places Israel at the forefront of today's technological innovators, but only 20% of tech employees in Israel are women. QueenB was founded by Computer Science students at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, who were disheartened by the low number of women enrolled in the Computer Science major, and decided to actively make a difference. We offer weekly coding classes for teenage girls after school. The sessions combine social activities, and are available in Hebrew and Arabic, in more than 20 different locations across Israel. Our classes require no prior experience or special interest in tech, and our instructors are Computer Science university students, who receive a scholarship for their mentorship. As students learn to code with us in junior high, we encourage them to take on Computer Science as a major in high school.

Israel Internet Association

The Israel Internet Association (ISOC-IL) is an independent non-profit organization established in 1997 to promote internet access and integration across Israel. Our pivotal mission is to ensure the Israeli internet is a reliable, secure, independent, fair, and competitive space for the benefit of internet users and the Israeli public (see: https://en.isoc.org.il). ISOC-IL is first and foremost Israel's country code top-level domains (ccTLD) registry, responsible for managing the registration of '.il' and '.' domain names (see: https://en.isoc.org.il/il-cctld), as well as the ongoing operation of the Israeli Internet eXchange (IIX), which allows secure, fast, unrestricted access to Israeli and global websites and online services at any time and place (see: https://en.isoc.org.il/iix/about-iix). Based on these values and technical expertise, ISOC-IL conducts policy research, educational programs, and emergency response initiatives, working to bridge digital gaps and enhance online safety across Israel's diverse communities, while sharing evidence-based insights with the global internet governance community (see: https://en.isoc.org.il/about/news-room). The Internet Safety Hotline which has been operated by ISOC-IL since 2013, provides assistance, guidance, information and tools for internet users in Israel, empowering individuals and communities to prevent and handle a wide range of online abuses and threats (see: https://en.isoc.org.il/the-internet-safety-hotline). The Internet Safety Hotline is a first responder to hundreds of monthly requests for assistance and support, and is recognized as a trusted partner and flagger by leading social media platforms, web hosting services and URL shortening services, reporting to them directly about instances of abuse and offensive, malicious and illegal content, activities and actors targeting internet users and communities in Israel. Through the operation of the Internet Safety Hotline, ISOC-IL has developed deep expertise and experience in monitoring and reporting abuse and malicious content to social media platforms, utilizing a comprehensive evidence-based approach and knowledge of platform policies to address online threats, supported by academic rigor and a community-focused perspective on pertinent issues (see: https://en.isoc.org.il/data-and-statistics/isoc-ils-internet-safety-hotline-data-and-insights-about-online-abuse-in-israel-in-2023) ISOC-IL conducts programs and produces educational materials promoting digital literacy, broadening the public's understanding of the educational and economic opportunities available on the internet while fostering digital trust, online safety and presenting day-to-day solutions to digital threats. ISOC-IL's main focus in the context of the digital divide is the promotion of digital literacy and inclusion, which focuses on the ability to understand and navigate the computing and internet environment. It encompasses a range of skills - technical, cognitive, and sociological - that are crucial for performing tasks and solving problems in digital environments. There are various expressions of digital literacy, including knowledge of the basic principles of computers, ability to safely browse the internet, ability to perform tasks such as online bill payments and shopping, participation in online communities and social networks while adhering to behavioral norms, critical thinking skills, and capability to find, capture, assess, and understand information presented through digital technology. Digital literacy is considered a survival skill in the information age, enabling and opening "digital doors" to the ever-evolving world of information and knowledge (see: https://en.isoc.org.il/isoc-il-bridging-israels-digital-divide). In the last few years and especially after October 7 and the current war, ISOC-IL staff and leadership have had a key role in shaping public policy and decision making regarding online threats and enhancing information integrity by the state, civil society and the private sector in Israel (see: https://en.isoc.org.il/policy-community/policy-papers/oct7-social/drowning-in-the-flood). ISOC-IL experts have presented the organization's data, analysis, research and reports in leading forums and events - amongst them Knesset committees, leading cyber protection forums and conferences, the Israel Democracy Institute and other important academic and civil society forums in Israel and in the global arena (see: https://en.isoc.org.il/about/news-room/isoc-il-research-featured-in-knesset-policy-report; https://en.isoc.org.il/about/news-room/top-10-disinformation-insights-isoc-il-eu).

Achvat Amim - Solidarity of Nations

Achvat Amim ("Solidarity of Nations" in Hebrew) is a unique five month volunteer program based in Jerusalem, for participants ages 21 to 30, that directly engages with the reality of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through grassroots human rights work and critical education, based on the core value of self-determination for all peoples. Our vision is a reality of peace, justice, and self-determination for all peoples in this land, within a framework where the full human, civil, and political rights of all people and peoples are recognized and actualized. As experienced community organizers in Israel-Palestine, we know that the best way to approach challenging social and political problems is to engage people in meaningful processes of self-examination, empowerment, and relationship building. In parallel, we need to create spaces for communities to develop shared goals and strategies for positive social change, rooted in their unique identities and traditions. Our mission is to build a movement to support self-determination for all peoples, starting with an empowered and educated Jewish community which acts in partnership and solidarity with Palestinians and Israelis. As Jewish educators and activists, we have identified three strategies: 1. transform our own Jewish community to act from a place of empathy, compassion and meaningful identity, 2. bring more people into the movement, in partnership and solidarity with Palestinians and Israelis, and 3. develop leaders within the movement for self-determination for all people and peoples. Achvat Amim's methods - sustained processes of living, learning, and working in partnership across various divisions - allow growing relationships of trust and solidarity to emerge between participants, partner organizations, and staff, between Israelis, Palestinians and others.
