iStart2 Vision, Mission & Values

Vision

 

A “Sustainability-Through- Arts” global movement

in which communities will participate

in re-imagining and implementing solutions

towards ensuring sustainable footprints

for our children.

Mission:

To provide a platform where people can take hands across boundaries and connect to create and re-imagine practical solutions for a sustainable future. 

 

Using the arts to communicate in a fun and positive way that talks to the head

and hearts of diverse communities and inspire them to use their hands in

saving water, energy and waste 

 

Building bridges and form partnerships with world leaders, their foundations

and the networks supporting them 

 

People with “all abilities”, disadvantaged communities and Indigenous Peoples

of the world will form the core of the iStart2 movement interconnected with

Artists, Business, Government, The Media, Religious Communities, Schools, Universities, Colleges, Elderly Folk (and Old Age Homes)
