BOND provides a central point for advocacy on issues on which member organisations have a common view and would benefit from having a common voice. BOND focuses its advocacy work on government-civil society relations. It aims to ensure that government policies promote the autonomy and diversity of civil society organisations, allowing for participation of a broad range of southern and northern stakeholders in both decision making and the implementation of development - Mobilising civil society organisations to campaign in 2005 to make poverty history

Third World Saar Campaign (Aktion 3. Welt Saar) is a social organization that is not linked to any political party. We are not involved in any projects in the Third World because we think that we do not have the right to develop people in other countries. Our objective is to make a difference in Germany. For centuries, Europe has forced its ideas about development upon other countries and thereby destroyed development programs that were already in process. Now it is time to put an end to this kind of violent development policy.

Since we are not associated with any political party, we refuse to focus on one individual objective. Some people expect us to stand up exclusively for topics related to the Third World and stay out of German politics because they assume we cannot achieve anything anyway. But instead, we interfere because we care. We want to bring about changes in Germany.

As an organization that is not linked to any political party, we commit ourselves to topics such as fair trade, world trade, nutrition, political asylum, racism, migration, energy policies, anti-Semitism, militarization, ecology and development policies. Above all, we try to do something about the unequal distribution of goods in the world. We intend to make sure that everyone has access to intellectual and material resources and does not live in poverty and misery.

We, the Third World Saar Campaign,

• are financed by our members and sponsors and are not linked to any political party, church or lobby;
• annually organize 120 events and campaigns independently or in cooperation with other organizations;
• establish networks, link up groups and people and initiate campaigns;
• recommend speakers and provide counselling for the organization of events;
• publish the results of our research and studies on a regular basis.

The BAG was founded more than 50 years ago. It is the registered association of the state level working groups of social workers and social education workers occupied in German prisons. The BAG represents the interests of 1,300 social workers in prisons. Apart from supporting the work of colleagues in prisons with an information network and expert conferences, the BAG also develops innovative guidelines for working with prison inmates.
