Collaborations with foundations, organizations and entities are essential to achieve social changes

The relations that Barça Foundation establishes with different entities aim to improve the impact of their actions for the benefit of society and, specifically, in favor of children and young people, as well as in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) of the United Nations 2030 agenda. The different collaborations are linked to their strategic lines of work: education and protection, community action and health and emotional well-being, which use sport as a tool to improve the quality of life of children and young people and their environment.
