The International Society for Ecology and Culture ISEC is a non profit organization whose purpose is to raise awareness about what it identifies as the root causes of contemporary social, environmental and economic crises. The group claims that focusing on single issues saving whales, blocking nuclear power plants, feeding the hungry, etc. only overwhelms people and ultimately fails as a strategy. Instead, ISEC argues that societies must focus on the fundamental forces that create or exacerbate all these problems. Among those forces are economic globalization , corporate culture corporate power , and conventional notions of technological and economic progress . As a solution, ISEC promotes economic localization and other locally based alternatives to the global consumer culture , which protect both biological and cultural diversity. ISEC is the parent organization of a program in Ladakh, or Little Tibet , begun in 1975. The Ladakh Project includes a wide range of hands on activities, including a renewable energy program, and has won international recognition for countering the negative effects of conventional development in that region.

The International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology icipe is an international scientific research institute, headquartered in Nairobi , Kenya which works towards improving lives and livelihoods of people in Africa. icipe was founded in 1970 by a renowned Kenyan entomologist, the late Thomas Odhiambo , with strong encouragement from Carl Djerassi , a professor of Chemistry at Stanford University . The center s main objective is to research and develop alternative and environmentally friendly pest organism pest and vector management strategies, that are effective, selective, non polluting, non resistance inducing, and which are affordable to resource limited rural and urban communities. icipe s mandate further extends to the conservation and utilization of the rich insect biodiversity found in Africa . Today, icipe is the only international center in sub Saharan Africa working primarily on arthropod s. icipe focuses on sustainable development using human health as the bases, and the environment as the foundation for sustainability. icipe works in a holisitic and integrated approach through a 4 H paradigm Human, Animal, Plant and Environmental Health, with the aim of improving the overall health of communities in tropical Africa by addressing the interlinked problems of poverty, poor health, low agricultural productivity and degradation of the environment. Human health icipe recognises that an increase in productivity depends on a healthy workforce. The institute considers that, in addition to burdening the health infrastructures, diseases such as malaria , limit the capabilities and outputs of farmers in Africa. The Center therefore focuses on improving the health of people, especially in sub Saharan Africa, so that they can play the vital role in the society and economy that they deserve to.
