For over 30 years, the Pacific Islands Association of Non-Governmental Organisations (PIANGO) has stood as a bold and unifying force for civil society across the Pacific region. Serving 24 member countries and territories, PIANGO is the regional secretariat for National Liaison Units (NLUs), which function as national civil society platforms that coordinate and amplify the voice of local communities, grassroots groups, and non-governmental organisations. Rooted in the Pacific's cultural values and principles of development effectiveness, PIANGO's work is guided by the vision of: "A United Pacific: Strengthening the Resilient Responsiveness of our Kainga for a Peaceful and Prosperous Vanua." Its mission is equally inspiring: "To support the creation of a secure enabling environment for strong, effective, accountable and adaptive institutions that provide inclusive representation and common voice platforms and structured mechanisms for policy influencing, rooted in Pacific cultural practices and values-through sustainable, equitable, and genuine partnerships for resilient development." This powerful mandate is brought to life through PIANGO's call for "Transformative Partnerships for a Resilient Sustainable Pacific", a call aligned with Agenda 2030 and grounded in uniquely Pacific approaches to development, resilience, and solidarity. PIANGO's work focuses on four strategic pillars: Governance and Leadership - Strengthening national platforms and cultivating visionary leaders who are grounded in community and capable of guiding resilient institutions. Voice - Amplifying community perspectives and ensuring vulnerable groups have meaningful influence on national, regional, and global policy-making. Approaches - Promoting Pacific-led and evidence-based approaches to development, rooted in indigenous knowledge, traditional practices, and critical research. Partnerships - Building inclusive, equitable, and long-term collaborations across civil society, governments, and donors to support a thriving, accountable civic space. In today's context of global uncertainty, climate risks, and shrinking civic space, PIANGO is committed to enabling local leadership, defending civic freedoms, and promoting people-centred, holistic development that reflects the hopes and wisdom of the Pacific peoples.

Oxfam is a global movement of people who share the belief that, in a world rich in resources, poverty isn't inevitable. It's an injustice which can, and must, be overcome. We're dedicated to building a just and safer world focusing on people's rights. We're passionate about ending poverty and helping to rebuild the lives affected by it. It's an enormous undertaking but we also have people on our side - talented and committed partners, volunteers, supporters and staff who share the same values. We aim to save lives by responding quickly with aid and protection during emergencies, empower people to work their own way out of poverty and campaign for lasting change. We have been saving and changing lives for seventy years now and know that tackling poverty is only possible when we are helping people to secure their fundamental human rights - the right to life and security, the right to a sustainable livelihood, the right to essential services, the right to be heard and the right to equity (in particular, the rights of women). We work at all levels - global and local, with international governments and global institutions, local communities and individuals - to make sure that these rights are protected and that the best solutions to people's suffering are implemented. Our values as an organisation are founded upon our experiences. We know that poverty can only be overcome once the fundamental human rights of impoverished others are secured and our three main values as an organisation - empowerment, accountability, inclusiveness - reflect this. Empowerment - our approach means that everyone involved with Oxfam, from our staff and supporters to people living in poverty, should feel they can make change happen. Accountability - our purpose driven, results-focused approach means we take responsibility for our actions and hold ourselves accountable; we believe that others should also be held accountable for their actions. Inclusiveness - we are open to everyone and embrace diversity; we believe everyone has a contribution to make, regardless of visible and invisible differences.

Rachel House was registered in November 2006 as a charitable organization under the name of Yayasan Rumah Rachel in Indonesia with the purpose of providing palliative care to children from poor and needy families living with life-threatening diseases, such as cancer and HIV. It is the first pediatric palliative care service in Indonesia, providing pain and symptom management for children in the final stages of their illness at free of charge. Without the service, many of these children from poor families would spend their last days in horrific pain without medical assistance. Rachel House was founded in the hope that no child would ever have to die in pain, without love and care. It is built on the principle that "we are not here to add days to the children's lives, but to add life to their remaining days". Its mission is to provide palliative care for children with life-threatening conditions allowing them to live their remaining days with joy and dignity in a non-discriminatory, safe and loving environment. Rachel House's goals are: To advocate and raise awareness of the need for palliative care in Indonesia To assemble and train multi-disciplinary staff in pediatric palliative care To train and develop home care teams to provide support and education to families to allow children with life-threatening conditions to be cared for at home To reinforce local community's capacity to care for children in need through education To partner other organisations that add value to our mission To secure long-term financial sustainability Being the first pediatric palliative care service in Indonesia where palliative care is not taught in medical schools, Rachel House's pioneering team of nurses were trained by palliative care professionals from neighboring countries such as Singapore, Australia and New Zealand. In every training opportunity, Rachel House has ensured the participation of medical professionals (doctors, nurses & pharmacists) from the large government-owned hospitals and public clinics, nursing schools and health volunteers and social workers in the hope of building the capacity in palliative care. A significant outcome of this targeted training has been the establishment of the first pediatric palliative care unit in Indonesia at the Dharmais Cancer Hospital in late 2010. In the 3 years since the first patient was admitted to Rachel House in December 2008, the service has reached more than 150 children in the final stages of cancer and HIV, providing them with pain and symptom management and empowered their caregivers with the essential education.
