The International Center for Peace and Development was established in 1995 as a non profit, non governmental organization based in Napa, California , to continue the work initiated by the International Commission on Peace and Food ICPF . ICPF was constituted in 1989 by a group of 25 concerned scientists, professionals, international administrators, business, social and political leaders from 15 nations. Over a six year period ICPF conducted a series of international conferences and research projects on a wide range of issues concerning global security, conversion of resources from military to civilian purposes, food security, employment, economic development, and the environment. The commission s work focused on the development problems of poorer countries such as India, the challenges of rapid transition in Eastern Europe, particularly in the nations of the former Soviet Union, and the prospects and opportunities for peaceful development in the Middle East. From the outset, the objective the Commission was to evolve practical strategies that could be implemented at the field level to demonstrate the feasibility of accelerating the development process. The most noteworthy of these efforts was a study we conducted on employment potentials in India in which we formulated a strategy for generating 100 million new jobs in the country within 10 years. Another study was conducted on the utilization of military resources for environmental protection. In addition the commission studied and evolved proposals to address concerns about rising unemployment in the West.

Unreferenced auto yes date December 2009 Danish InternationalDevelopment Agency DANIDA , is a Denmark Danish organisation inside the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark , set up to provide humanitarian aid and assistance in Developing country developing countries . Origin of name The organisation s name was originally DANAID. In Greek mythology, the Daughters of Danaus Danaids were daughters of Danaus who killed their husbands and were condemned to fill a bathtub with water to wash away their sins. Because the buckets they were given to do this were actually sieve s, they worked for all eternity in Tartarus without making any progress. For this reason, the aid agency s name was changed from DANAID to DANIDA at the last minute when this unfortunate connotation was discovered. The organisation works in association with many non profit agencies in developing countries like India. In 2009, DANIDA worked in close association with the Indian Government s Padmasree award winner, K.Viswanathan, and the prestigious institution Mitraniketan .

IDEX s Story Since 1985 IDEX has been working with groups around the world that are creating lasting solutions to poverty in their communities. IDEX was the inspiration of a group of returned Peace Corps volunteers who had a vision for a different kind of internationaldevelopment model. Together they created IDEX after seeing that small grants targeted to grassroots groups who had the trust of their neighbors and the knowledge of what was needed in their own communities was often more effective than traditional large scale philanthropy. Today, IDEX s grantmaking has grown to an all time high. We currently work with partners and grantees in Guatemala , India , Mexico , Nepal , South Africa and Zimbabwe . Partnering for Change IDEX supports community led solutions that are making a huge difference for people living in extreme poverty. Initiatives that involve entire communities in building local economies, empowering women, protecting the environment, creating food security, and promoting local leadership. In the 25 years since its inception, IDEX is more convinced than ever that the most effective use of funds and resources is to bolster existing projects successful and innovative local solutions to local problems. IDEX is not about aid. IDEX is about local, effective problem solving and leadership. When matched with the vision, resolve, and ingenuity of communities all over the world, it is a proven formula for lasting change. http www.idex.org take action Join Us .
