Its mission is to create, through the universal language of art, a meaningful and enduring dialogue among people and cultures in order to encourage tolerance and solidarity and to foster education as a human right. ART for The World works in close collaboration with the artists' community and with the institutions that defend and promote the principles of human rights: the United Nations, the World Health Organisation (WHO) (), the High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) (), etc. and the European Parliament (). It presents its projects in sites, which do not belong to the traditional contemporary art circuit, such as ancient monuments, monasteries, medersas, public buildings, schools, islands, parks, stadium and other open spaces. Art ''for The'' World organises exhibitions, lectures, conferences, publishes books and produces films. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Art for The World」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
