United Nations Sustainable Development Goals - SDGs

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals are part of a global plan to promote sustainable peace and prosperity and protect our planet. With the 2030 Agenda, they have not only gained political prominence but have also become more present in society.

Our contribution to SDG goals

By disseminating art and supporting artists, we aim to contribute to the following UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their indicators :
