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). At its recent World Congress in Jeju, South Korea, WFD members (136) approved the WFD strategic direction 2023-2030 and Action Plan 2023-2027. 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). Furthermore, our mission is to work towards the full realisation of linguistic rights and human rights in all areas of life, with full recognition and implementation of these rights across local, national and international levels. 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. Investing in a strong and sustainable organisation: to carry out our mission and vision we need greater investment in our secretariat and regional secretariat, expand our donor base, increase visibility and fundraising activities so that our organisation can carry on its important global work.

GP MENA (Middle East and North Africa) is the latest organisation in the Greenpeace network that officially started in 2018. In the past three years the office has grown with 23 FTE staff distributed across the region. Individually and collectively, what we believe and how we see the world is reflected in our actions and behaviours and at Greenpeace MENA, we believe that a better world is not only possible, but that it's already beginning. We envision a world where a billion acts of courage can spark a better tomorrow for all, this optimism is what sets us apart in the region where many seem to have thrown up their hands in despair. Greenpeace MENA aspires to help build, and be part of a vibrant environmental justice movement that puts the climate emergency and a just energy transition high on the social and political agendas. We rely on traditional and digital campaigning to reach out and engage with more than 400 million Arabs at home and around the world - bridging the gaps between borders. As a relatively small team covering a wide geographical area, our success depends on making 'magic' happen, by connecting the dots, empowering local initiatives and telling powerful and inspiring stories. The monsters we face are apathy and fear, and the gifts we offer are knowledge, action and hope.

Banlieues Sante is a nonprofit organization created in June 2018 by two health professionals who, based on their observations in the field in terms of social inequalities in health, decided to make it their fight. Today, Banlieues Sante has its headquarters in Ile de France and a branch in Marseille. The organization is employing 12 people and works on health prevention and education projects for all vulnerable communities in underprivileged neighborhoods. To act globally on health prevention, Banlieues Sante relies on other close structures such as Banlieues School for health prevention through youth empowerment and Banlieues Sport for health prevention through sport. The mission of Banlieues Sante is to fight against social inequalities in health and thus, to reduce the gap in life expectancy between workers and executives in France, currently of 6 years on average. Social inequalities in health refer to the fact that the more people live in difficult conditions, the worse their health is. Health determinants include housing, employment, food, access to sports or culture. Our programs consider all these factors in a global approach to health as defined by the World Health Organisation (WHO), namely a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not only the absence of disease or infirmity. Banlieues Sante developed partnerships with nearly 300 local associations that help us reach people in underprivileged areas. All these organizations are visible on an interactive map that we created to help realize the extent of the impact of Banlieues Sante on the field. Our partner organizations know their community and understand their needs. For example, to alleviate the Covid crisis, in 2021, we distributed 31 500 hygiene kits, 44 400 food parcels to hyper proximity organizations in need of help for their beneficiaries. These joint actions allow us to have direct feedback of women's needs and to set up the proper solutions.
