German term or phrase: fach- und trägerübergreifend

I know what is meant and what they are saying, but I can't seem to come up with a good translation:
Wir arbeiten bis heute in Arbeitsgruppen mit, die sich mit der Situation der Kinder und Jugendlichen *fach- und trägerübergreifend* auseinander setzen.
Any suggestions?

Explanation:
To date, we have been involved in working groups that address the situation of children and young persons in an inter-disciplinary manner and across all sponsoring agencies.

Trägerübergreifend refers to the organisations that manage and fund these working groups - obviously the situation of children and young persons is addressed independent of any one Trägerorganisation = sponsoring agency as per Romain, Legal dico.

Other options for fachübergreifend include multidisciplinary and (extending) across the disciplines.
