Our mission is to realize peace in East Asia, including the Korean Peninsula, and sustainable life for young people. 1. Beyond the conflicts and antagonisms of East Asian countries, we want to create a symbiotic community centered on 'peace' and 'prosperity'. For this, PWK will become an East Asian platform that manages the absolute crisis facing mankind and achieves the UN sustainable development goals(UN SDGs). We are going to take a new path that will serve as the cornerstone of peace on the Korean Peninsula and peace community in East Asia. 2. PWK will send young Koreans to international cooperation sites and train them. Foreign NGOs who have entered Korea tend to stick to fundraising. They neglect to send young people to international cooperation sites. When young Koreans grow up solving various challenges at the international cooperation sites, they will be able to become the people who fit into the new era and lead our future. 3. PWK will support North Korea, which faces the worst situation in the world, but has unlimited potential. Instead of unilateral support, we are trying to help North Korea to promote co-prosperity as partners who will live together in East Asia. As history shows, symbiosis is the only way in East Asia.

Seva Mandir's mission is to make real the idea of society consisting of free and equal citizens who are able to come together and solve the problems that affect them in their particular contexts. The commitment is to work for a paradigm of development and governance that is democratic and polyarchic. Seva Mandir seeks to institutionalise the idea that development and governance is not only to be left to the State and its formal bodies like the legislature and the bureaucracy, but that citizens and their associations should engage separately and jointly with the State. The mission briefly, is to construct the conditions in which citizens of plural backgrounds and perspectives can come together and deliberate on how they can work to benefit and empower the least advantaged in society.

Our mission is to protect lives and human rights of North Korean people. We strive to achieve our goal through assistance to North Korean refugees hiding in third countries and continue to assist them with their re-settlement and education in South Korea. Our ultimate goal is to support a development of a generation of successful young North Koreans who will drive toward peaceful re-unification of the two countries and will become a bridge between North and South, if the two countries unify. In supporting human rights improvements in the country, we focus on providing information about the situation inside and encouraging international community to raise their voice against the abuses.

DonInRyun (Solidarity for LGBT Human Rights of Korea) started as LGBT Association of Korean Universities in 1997 and has changed its name to the current organization, DonInRyun in 1998, and since then our organization has been one of the leading representative LGBT groups in Korea. Many gender diversities, such as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender/ transsexual, and intersexual have come together to develop a society which respects the human rights of minorities. Any heterosexuals who are in favor of minorities' human rights are able to join our activism on equal terms. Since diversity is valued, all our members are endeavoring to enhance the awareness of human rights of everyone so as to avoid any unintended-discriminations against other members, based on disease, education, age, gender, and sexuality. These are the ten principles of the organization: 1. We, as a human rights organization representing the rights of sexual minorities who are mostly discriminated and marginalized within the power structure of Korean society, endeavor to retrieve the human rights of those who have been treated unequally based on gender and sexual identity. 2. We recognize that sexual minorities living in the Korean society are suffering from unjust and unreasonable oppression and want to counteract the efforts to deny the human rights of the sexual minorities. 3. We actively express solidarity with social minorities, such as the common laborer, women, migrant worker, the disabled, PLWHA, refugee, children, youth, and the poor who are not free of discrimination and oppression, and try to develop an equal society where everyone respects human rights and diversity. 4. We strive to abolish discriminatory elements like social status/position, age, and sex (gender). 5. We make efforts to communicate with sexual minorities across the world by strengthening solidarity between other human rights groups/organizations, including international solidarity. 6. We endeavor to get rid of all discrimination by sex (gender), social class (stratification), and any isolation of LGBT community. 7. We perform actions together with heterosexuals on equal terms who are in favor of sexual minorities' human rights. 8. We fully support individual's coming-out and respect his/her opinion about the coming-out process. 9. We advocate for producing a diversity of sexual minorities' culture. 10. We respect individual's sexual autonomy.

INTO brings people together to exchange information, develop and promote best practice, and to help its members achieve beneficial change. Our mission is to 'promote the conservation and enhancement of the heritage of all nations for the benefit of the people of the world and future generations'. With INTO's global scope and focus on our common heritage, built, natural and cultural, there's no other organisation quite like it. All INTO members are not-for-profit, most are completely independent charities, others have a closer relationship with their governments. Virtually all are tiny and a few are more substantial in size - but all are equally dedicated, equally passionate. From a group of twelve founding members representing some of the leading conservation, environmental and heritage bodies across the globe, including representatives from India, UK, USA, Ireland and Australia, we've just reached a total of 65 subscribing organisations worldwide, which we're excited about. But INTO is run on a shoestring and our ambitions outstrip our resources. It's just the same with the important projects which member organisations are desperate to undertake, big on ambition and hope but with tiny or non-existent means to get the job done. Whether it's the National Trust of Fiji rebuilding communities after Tropical Storm Winston, our Indonesian partners offering post-earthquake heritage first aid or now our Caribbean members in the aftermath of Hurricane Matthew, INTO members often have to help people rebuild their lives. And important social projects like raising awareness of the Slave Trade in Sierra Leone, telling the story of Nelson Island, Trinidad and Tobago's "Ellis Island" and producing a map of historic buildings in Kampala couldn't have happened without INTO's support. Every day we hear of work which Trusts want to undertake, but which they are having to embark upon with only the barest of resources and an abundance of optimism! Our crowdfunding goal is to help make these projects happen. And through conserving, re-using and enjoying our global built and natural environment, make a real difference to communities all around the world.
