A new framework agreement

The Omenaa Foundation has pledged €1 million to UNESCO under a three-year agreement, the organisation announced on 8 September. UNESCO describes it as its first partnership with a Polish private foundation.

Education and cultural exchange

The intended work includes arts education for young people, heritage revitalisation and support for contemporary African art and artists. The partners connect these areas with exchanges between Europe and Africa and opportunities for children and creators.
