Sponsors
| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation | Very influential and rich foundation established to take leadership of global health. |
| DFID | |
| European Commission | The executive body of the European Union, responsible for proposing legislation, implementing decisions, upholding the EU treaties and managing day-to-day business. |
| Ford Foundation | In addition to its own billionaire agenda, also known to have been $$$ middleman for covert CIA funding. |
| Freedom House | CIA backed group interested in internet censorship |
| Fritt Ord | Norwegian grant giving foundation with Cold War origins. |
| Luminate | Pierre Omidyar's foundation for financing global media and civil society groups. It is unknown how close it coordinates with certain deep state US government agencies. |
| National Endowment for Democracy | The "traditional intermediary of the CIA", promoting the US "national interest" abroad by financing groups and individuals. |
| Norway/Ministry of Foreign Affairs | A significant donor to NGOs and planning organizations. Many of the recipients dovetail with NATO objectives like regime changes and controlling the narrative. |
| Open Society Foundations | A NGO operating in more countries than McDonald's. It has the tendency to support politicians (at times through astroturfing) and activists that get branded as "extreme left" as its founder is billionaire and bane of the pound George Soros. This polarizing perspective causes the abnormal influence of the OSF to go somewhat unanswered. |
| Sigrid Rausing Trust | |
| UK/FCO | The UK government department dealing with foreign policy. |
| USAID | US govt organization to provide "international development", including funding of Ecohealth Alliance. Called "CIA's little sister". |
