Strategic priorities 2023-2026

Music and culture

 

Our main purpose is to contribute to a more compassionate society. We believe music, art and culture enrich our lives through creativity, expression, and reflection. Touching our senses, artistic experiences unleash our inner creativity and give access to a world without borders. Art nurtures curiosity and imagination. Music takes us on emotional journeys. Dance steps are a portal to a world of movement and expression.

We support projects that foster inclusion, community and shared experiences. In particular, we support projects for children and young adults. We believe in the importance of excellence, trail blazers and role models, and support projects that allow talents, orchestras and choirs to reach new heights.

 

For all projects

  • Must be anchored in the SDGs.

  • Have local ownership.

  • Make a difference for people and communities and contribute to a more compassionate society.

  • Our support must make a difference.
