The Rosa Luxemburg Foundation is actively involved in political education throughout the Federal Republic of Germany. It considers itself part of the political movement for democratic socialism. The Rosa Luxemburg Foundation has its origins in the association "Social Analysis and Political Education", founded in Berlin in 1990. It became a provider of political education, a discussion forum for critical thinking and political alternatives, and a centre for progressive social thinking and research both in Germany and throughout the world.

FNV Mondiaal is actively involved in the development of a strong, independent trade union movement world wide.

Strong trade unions:
•    are able to strive for better working conditions and a fairer division of income;
•    they play a crucial role in the compliance with trade union rights;
•    they play an active role in the fight against child labour and HIV/Aids;
•    they campaign for women and workers in the informal economy
These are also the main themes of FNV Mondiaal’s work. With regard to trade union rights FNV Mondiaal especially focusses on Colombia, Zimbabwe, Belarus and China.
The trade unions linked to the FNV are also involved with the FNV’s solidarity work. FNV Bondgenoten, ABVAKABO FNV, FNV Bouw and Algemene Onderwijsbond actively support their sector colleagues in developing countries and Eastern Europe.

Afrika Kontakt (AK) was founded in 1978 by a number of Danish political parties, trade unions and organizations to unite efforts against colonialism and suppression in the countries of Southern Africa. With the liberation of Angola, Mozambique and Zimbabwe our work increasingly broadened our focus to include the fight against Apartheid in South Africa and Namibia. For many years AK worked for an economical and cultural boycott of the white regime in South Africa.
We are a member based organization with 990 individual members and 59 collective members (like trade unions) representing more than 1.5 million people.
