Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) France

Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) - translated as Doctors Without Borders is an international medical humanitarian organisation founded by doctors and journalists in 1971 in Paris. Our teams are made up of tens of thousands of health professionals, logistic and administrative staff - bound together by our charter. We are a global movement, with staff from over 160 countries. MSF provides medical relief to the victims of war, disease and natural or man-made disaster, without regard to race, religion, or political affiliation. Our actions are guided by medical ethics and the principles of impartiality, independence and neutrality. We are a non-profit, self-governed, member-based organisation. The association's independence is guaranteed by the fact that it is funded 99% privately, mainly by individual donors and companies. MSF is an international movement of associations organised in 23 sections and 6 operational centers. The executive entities (sections and delegated offices) are linked to one of MSF's operational centers: Amsterdam (OCA), Barcelona-Athens (OCBA), Brussels (OCB), Geneva (OCG) and Paris (OCP). Operations are run from these centers. Each operational center has its own patterning with its partner sections. Since 2019, an association has been added to the list of entities that can lead operations: WaCA (West and Central Africa). 91.2% of our expenses are directly allocated to the social mission, with only 8.4% of operating & fundraising expenses. MSF makes financial transparency and rigorous management of its accounts a priority. The 3 audits of the Cour des Comptes (The French Court of Auditors) in 1998, 2004 and 2010 resulted in particularly commendable reports. Logistical strength: MSF Logistique (located in Merignac, France), is a dedicated entity created in 1986. The Merignac base is one of the world's largest centres for the transport of humanitarian supplies, with 18,500 m of storage space. It allows us to be very responsive in our operations, with the possibility of sending more than 100 tons of emergency supplies in 24 hours. Driving change: new approaches for greater impact. Throughout its history, MSF has sought to create dynamics for change and to benefit the populations it serves.

Fondazione L'Unione Europea Berlin

The Foundation L'Unione Europea Berlin develops initiatives in the field of peace work and peace research, international understanding and cultural understanding across national borders. The Foundation promotes initiatives and projects to support the diversity of cultural wealth, prosperity and - associated with this - the maintenance of lasting peace in the spirit of European unification at regional level and regardless of nation-state allocation. The Foundation promotes dialogue for peace and tolerance, in particular through joint encounters between young people from European and non-European regions. The Foundation sees its activities in the awareness that young people, if they can freely shape their future and live and work in any place in Europe, can develop a living basis for mutual understanding that can be experienced on a daily basis: the true human wealth in the diversity of culture in Europe, which is also sustainably shaped by influences outside Europe. The Nonoproject is a project for schools in European regions. The name for the project is related to the Italian composer Luigi Nono, who composed the choral work Il canto sospeso in 1956. Nono has written Il canto sospeso (Floating Vocals) based on farewell letters composed by young people, who were murdered by the National Socialists. He took them from the book "Lettere di condannati a morte della Resistenza Europea".
