The Foundation’s Advisory Board is a plural and diverse body that, aligned with the strategy and principles of the organization, aims to contribute to the growth of the entity and the achievement of its objectives, contributing through its members, knowledge, experience, and synergies in areas and sectors complementary to the essential activity of the Foundation.
The annual meeting took place on May 18, in which the regulations formalizing it as a consultative body were presented; the new Strategic Lines 2022-2024 were proposed; the lines of action and the objectives of the area of collaboration were discussed, and there was a space for reflection and debate on the opportunities of digital transformation for Eyes of the world.
In this last point, the improvement of digitization was discussed, both in internal organizational aspects and in other more diverse ones such as communication, cooperation projects, relations with partners, or fundraising.
