Advancing the
2030 Agenda Sustainable Development Goals The Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum contributes to the improvement of society with its activity, joining its efforts to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). In this sense, the Museum has a priority impact on the goals that are related to the reduction of inequalities (Objectives 4, 5 and 8 “Quality education”, “Gender equality” and “Decent work and economic growth”, respectively). In addition, it contributes to other SDGs such as “Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure” (Goal 9) closely aligned with the Museum’s digital transformation strategy or Goal 13 “Climate action”, because the Museum is a privileged place from which to disseminate values and raise awareness about the challenges and problems facing society, such as climate change and sustainable development. As well as all the “Climate action” initiatives it is carrying out in line with protecting and preserving the environment.
