Special Projects
We develop specially crafted projects, both digital and site-specific, that highlight the role of arts, culture, and creativity as tools for communication and social transformation in the region. Through open-calls and special commissions, our special projects tackle the IDB’s development goals by inviting artists and cultural leaders across the Americas to be part of the discussion.
