Mission
The Venice Sustainability Foundation (Fondazione Venezia Capitale Mondiale della Sostenibilità) pursues the objective of creating an integrated model (environmental, economic, social) of sustainable development for the City of Venice and its metropolitan area, which can revitalize the local socioeconomy while simultaneously ensuring the protection and conservation of the environmental, historical and cultural heritage, as well as the strengthening and cohesion of the local community. The Foundation becomes the instrument through which the Members intend to cooperate to make the City of Venice a reference point for the quality of urban life that can serve as inspiration for other national and international contexts, in this sense the World Capital of Sustainability.
