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.

At the Institute for Economic Democracy, we promote employee ownership and participatory ownership culture, which empowers employees to think and act as owners. Our activities focus primarily on research and policy proposal development, ownership restructuring, the creation and implementation of training and development programs for key stakeholders, as well as awareness-raising and advocacy services for employee-owned companies. By introducing innovative models of employee ownership and participatory governance, we foster social justice, economic efficiency, social and environmental sustainability, worker dignity, and community-rooted business ownership. We aim to contribute to the creation of a more sustainable, competitive, inclusive, humane, and attractive economy for young people and talents, which fairly rewards work and innovation. Our efforts contribute to achieving various goals of the United Nations' 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. By promoting inclusive and participatory employee ownership models, we directly contribute to achieving the following goals: - no poverty - Goal #1, - decent work and economic growth - Goal #8, - reducing inequalities - Goal #10. At the same time as promoting employee ownership, we are creating conditions for greater - gender equality - Goal #5, - industry, innovation and infrastructure - Goal #9 and - climate action - Goal #13. Our efforts strongly reflect the fundamental human rights and values of the European Union, such as democracy (establishing democratic structures in companies, promoting active participation of employees in decision-making and co-management), social justice (ensuring equal opportunities and rights for employees, reducing inequality and creating a more balanced economy), the right to property (ensuring co-ownership of the product by the employees who create it), the right to decent work (involving employees in decisions related to their work and work environment), and workers' rights to information. Out of a greater need for support for companies deciding to transition to ESOPs we also started an initiative solastnik.si with the intention to offer comprehensive solutions that help Slovenian companies transform ownership into true partnership. With innovative, accessible, and comprehensive support, we ensure the transition to employee ownership that empowers employees, increases competitiveness, and ensures business stability. Visible effects include greater financial literacy among employees, improved cooperation between employees and management, and greater resilience of companies in times of economic challenges.
