Our Local Partners & Projects

We’re building real partnerships with small, local organisations across Barcelona and Catalonia, in social care and environmental conservation. Some of these collaborations are still being finalised, so for now we’re introducing them without their names. Once each partnership is confirmed, we’ll share who they are.
