If we could dream big, we would love is to change the mentality of the people about animal welfare. First, about cruelty and neglect. In 2026, we still receive daily help request about animals in terrible conditions, chained, mistreated, and this should not exist anymore. Second, we would like to change the mentality about the neutering. Most of the people don't sterilize their animals, and this is the biggest issue around the world. Each year, more and more kittens and puppies are dumped alive in trash, in plastic bags on the side of the road. And this will not change as long as the mentality doesn't change. And finally, we would love to make sure that the animal welfare is part of the school education, to educate the new generations.

We would like Michaelshof to be a living example that another way of life is possible: connected, peaceful and close to nature. In a world that often feels divided, we want to create a place where people from different countries, cultures and backgrounds meet with openness, work toward a common purpose and learn to trust one another. Our dream is that especially young people leave Michaelshof with courage, hope and the feeling that they can help shape the future. Ideally, they carry this experience into the world and create new places of community, sustainability and peace.

Finca Ganadito is a social enterprise committed to sustainability, providing an eco-conscious living space and a versatile venue for retreats, rentals, and service-based learning. We focus on regenerative farming, as well as monitoring and increasing the biodiversity in and around our farm. We're working together with our greater community to restore the sea turtle population of our beach, leading night patrols and collecting scientific data, and we work with the local school to show kids how they can grow their own organic food. Through farm-to-table meals and hands-on workshops — from making loofah sponges and soap from recycled materials to preparing fresh coconut milk — we invite guests to experience practical, sustainable living firsthand.

Our project is a bouddhiste retreat and volunteer center dedicated to inner peace, mindfulness and benefiting others. Throughout the year, we welcome volunteers and visitors from around the world to expérience meditation, respect and a more meaningful way of living. In a busy and often stressful world, we offer a space where people can step away to reconnect with their good heart and contribute to a positive and caring community. Volunteers help maintain and develop the place while sharing daily life based on kindness, respect and service to others. We believe everyone deserves a safe space to reflect, grow and cultivate peace within. Everyone is Welcome here, regardless of background, nationality or beliefs.

If we were to receive funds from Worldpackers, our dream would be to create opportunities for our students to learn digital skills that will greatly improve their job prospects. Without these skills, they will struggle to access good jobs in an increasingly digital world. We aspire to purchase 20 new computers, which would allow us to provide free computer skills lessons to our students who are so eager to learn. Firstly, computers are essential for education. Students use them to research information, and improve their learning skills. Without basic computer knowledge, it is difficult to access modern education. Second, computer skills are very important for jobs and careers. Most workplaces require basic skills such as typing, using software, sending emails, and working online. Learning how to use computers helps students have better job opportunities in the future. Third, computers improve communication. People can connect through email, social media, and video calls, which is especially important in a globalized world. Finally, learning computer skills builds confidence and independence. Students can solve problems, find information by themselves, and become more prepared for modern life. This means their learning can continue to grow outside of our lessons.

We want our project to change the world by helping at the same time, and as much as possible, marine life and turtles, but also all the community, on an economic way (taxis, tours, surf teacher...) thanks to the volunteers we manage attract on the island to help us. We also care a lot about people mind to change thanks to the project, to get more and more aware about the biodiversity conservation. We want our volunteers be part of our family and learn a lot about simple and slow life, in harmony with nature, so they can live more happy, feel better, and share this around them. In summary we want both protect the planet and animals, and make people feel more and more happy and healthy.

If we dream big, we envision Nazaré Uniluz as a global catalyst for a more mindful and compassionate society. In a world facing an unprecedented mental health crisis, our project seeks to heal the epidemic of disconnection and stress. We believe that global change begins with individual awakening; by transforming how one person relates to themselves, we transform how they relate to the Earth and society. By fostering self-knowledge and silence, we empower individuals to restore their mental well-being and return to their communities as agents of harmony. Our goal is to amplify this culture of peace, proving that living for the common good is the cure for isolation. Ultimately, we see a world where every human interaction is rooted in presence, empathy, and a deep respect for all life.

The aim is to bring happiness, deep happiness and real happiness to everyone. We want to have centres everywhere in the world where everyone has the opportunity to receive teachings and advices, and to understand and practise through qualified instructions. We also have an art studio in Ulverston, UK, where we build statues of qualified Buddhas. We would love to have art studios in different countries, for example in Europe and South America, to give others the wonderful opportunity to build and work on these holy statues. Our tradition is international, and we think of all living beings, not just people in the UK. I would also say that we think of and cherish all humans and non-humans. We would like everyone to understand that we need to cherish others, both human and non-human, such as animals. Cherishing others is the real source of happiness, and our ultimate goal is for everyone to understand this and know how to do it.
