At the Swarovski Foundation, our mission is clear: to promote sustainable livelihoods through education to reduce inequality. This commitment is at the core of our partnerships, programmes, and initiatives, shaping every decision we make and every relationship we build.

A Collaborative Approach to Lasting Change

Collaboration is fundamental to our impact. We partner with charities and organisations that share our mission, ensuring that our joint efforts create meaningful and lasting change. By maintaining open and regular communication, we support and co-create advocacy and engagement activities that drive progress. Through continuous monitoring and evaluation, we remain committed to assessing our initiatives' impact, refining our strategies, and identifying new opportunities to enhance our work.

Transparency and Accountability in Philanthropy

We believe that transparency is key to effective philanthropy. Our annual impact reports not only mark milestones but also provide an opportunity to reflect, revise, and refine our approach. By openly sharing our progress, we hold ourselves accountable and demonstrate our commitment to continuous learning and improvement.

2023 Impact Reports: Equity, Creativity, and Water

• Equity: We empower marginalised groups through equitable approaches to education, supporting young people, women and displaced communities to gain skills and access resources contributing to more sustainable futures.
• Creativity: We advance creative talent to drive systemic change addressing societal and environmental inequalities, and to increase sustainable practices in the creative industry by accelerating innovations and empowering women and young creatives.
• Water: We improve water security through projects promoting educational and sustainable practices to address water challenges and improve livelihoods for global communities.

Looking Ahead: Strengthening Our Commitment
