TRP focuses on the polycrisismore than two dozen environmental and social stressors that have created a perfect storm of human and biosphere threats. TRP goals: Empower people, projects & practices to meet the Global Challenge; welcome diverse views across the global spectrum; encourage respectful dialogues across regions & cultures; inspire creative responses to the polycrisis. Stanley Wu serves as director. Omega incubates new initiatives for living in and through the global polycrisis. Omegas goal is to help build the nascent field of polycrisis research and action. This includes: (1) to map the best thinking on the polycrisis, (2) to identify the global network of those working toward creative solutions, (3) to identify the community of those who can work together to strengthen resilience, and (4) to identify and support specific projects with special value added. Omegas initiatives include: The Omega Collaborative, a steadily growing working group of partners around the world committed to a better future through a focus on systemic risk, interconnected and intersecting stressors, complexity, equity, governance, and the full range of issues threatening civilization; and The Omega Resilience Awards (ORA), which provides fellowships, research grants, and media creation to support new models of thinking, leadership, communication, and engagement in response to the challenges of the global polycrisis.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
