Brief Description of NEJAT Center’s Current Sponsors
1. Background of Deutscher Orden
The Deutsche Orden, an order of papal law founded the corporation in the year 1990 as a non-profit enterprise. Dedicated to the charisma of origin of the Teutonic Order “Helping and Healing” dating back to the foundation of the Teutonic Order in the year 1190, the Deutscher Orden realizes its self-fulfilment in the establishments of the order. With four business units, “Support for the Elderly”, “Support for the Disabled”, “Support for the Youth” and “Drug rehabilitation and Treatment”, the corporation was changed in 1999 into a public corporation being located with its more than 60 establishments and nearly 2.000 employees throughout the whole area of the Federal Republic of Germany. 
The employees of the corporation feel in a particular sense related  (obliged) to the people entrusted to them. For the employees the needs and well being of the residents are important and they feel obliged to them. Being aware of this task the centres of the Deutsche Orden became locations of mutual encounters, of medical, therapeutical, nursing and accompanying help. They became areas for social, cultural and religious experiences.
Current activities in Germany
The department for “Support for the Elderly” comprises nursing centres, temporary nursing, outpatient nursing service and sheltered housing. The centres being home for mentally and physically disabled people comprise sheltered living areas and living outside the core centre. 
In the drug field are integrated networks of counselling and detoxication centres. Furthermore Deutscher Orden provides out patients treatment in a number of halfway houses focusing on the social integration of the patients and gives assistance to drug demand reduction NGOs in developing countries.
The basis of the concept is the realisation of the principles of the therapeutic community with a maximum amount of self-help, self-control, acceptance of responsibility and the promotion of own initiative. It is important to ensure, however, that the residents are not pushed too hard and that their individual strengths and capabilities are respected. The employees take on the function of supporters and motivators in an effort to strengthen the residents` sense of responsibility. All tasks related to dealing with every day situations are offered as tasks to be completed by the community in a structured daily routine. In addition, there are possibilities to work in workshops, in the garden and in aspects of animal care. With its distinctive activity orientation, the therapeutic community is an ideal place for chronically, and in some cases cerebrally, impaired addicts. On the one hand, slipping further into a passive role is prevented. On the other hand, a new feeling of self worth can be developed when residents successfully complete tasks or technical work they pursue.
The residents` sense of personal worth and respect is paramount in the therapeutic process, whose goal it is to strengthen and support all aspects of the personality whilst observing the aspects which are related to addictive behaviour. Since the residents experienced situations in which they felt they were inferior and had failed, they should be encouraged to build up confidence in their own capabilities again and to development systems of value and meaning in living together with others. To summarise, the therapeutic process which we strive to follow lets itself be described as a social learning experience in a reality-based setting in which the following principle applies: As much help as necessary, as little help as possible.
Current activities in developing countries
Deutscher Orden International, seeks to develop partnerships with already existing NGOs or community based organisation to support them in their efforts particularly in the rehabilitation of young drug users and the development of alternatives to the drug using lifestyle.  This is done through establishing a functional Partner-network, supporting by means of technical consultations and where possible, acting as a bridge between European and International donors and the local organisation in the developing country.

3. Brief background on UNESCO
UNESCO as a UNAIDS co-sponsor is mandated to develop and implement comprehensive Education Sector responses to HIV and AIDS. These include:

• Preventing the spread of HIV through education by developing knowledge and personal skills essential for the prevention of HIV infection in relation to drug misuse.
• Building the capacity of individuals, families, communities and nations to overcome the impact of HIV and drug misuse.

Recognising the vital role of the education sector in the response to AIDS, UNESCO launched in 2004 the Global Initiative on Education and HIV and AIDS- EDUCAIDS. Through EDUCAIDS, UNESCO has developed its strategy for responding to drugs, HIV and AIDS that is in  line with the global effort to move towards universal access to prevention programmes, treatment, care and support.
