Program · Since November 2022

Nature & Culture

Reconcile humanity with itself and with the living world. We believe culture is one of the few levers capable of achieving this, because it passes through emotions and stories.

The program, in two convictions

The reconciliation of humanity with itself and with the living world is imperative.

Culture is a powerful vector to achieve this, through its ability to evoke emotions and propose new narratives.

Launched in November 2022 with the support of UNESCO, the program aims to touch hearts as much as minds — a condition, in our view, for a lasting transformation of everyone’s relationship with nature. It joins UNESCO’s effort to make culture both a driver and a facilitator of sustainable development.

Three initiatives

The program materialized through three projects carried out with the support of UNESCO. Details of each, along with the events and campaigns that accompanied them, are on the "Our Actions" page.
