It depends..but don´t translate in this case

It depends on what organisation you are speaking about. When it comes to your specific examples I would say that you should NOT translate the names.

This reference (see link below) refers to ISO standards:
"When the organization has only one official name, it is possible to translate the name and put it in brackets the first time it appears in a text. As far as bibliographical references are concerned, the names of the organizations are to be given in the original language. The names of organizations should be given without any form of translation, unless these organizations have official names in different languages (for example The European Union or the World Health Organization). "
