About Us

Fundación COMUNARTES is a non-profit organization created to manage and execute projects that promote the development of communities and collectives through the strengthening of technological, audiovisual, communicational, creative and artistic capacities.

As a Foundation, we understand that, at present, audiovisual production has become a fundamental element as a means of communication for artistic, commercial and educational productions and has come to have a high importance in traditional media and social networks, so there is not much time left for this medium to become a means of social and political advocacy, through which communities and collectives achieve changes for their own benefit.
