A foundation that believes in the power of culture to transform realities
Fundación Consucol was born from the conviction that territorial development is not only built with infrastructure or policies, but also with cultural expressions, critical research and community participation. For more than 16 years, we have been working with communities, artists, academics and institutional allies to generate inclusive opportunities in the territories. Our premium identity is based on technical rigor, aesthetic sensitivity and social commitment.
