## About

Spanish foundation for sustainable development, working in rural development, vulnerable-population protection, and conservation.

Fundación Desea (Fundación Desarrollo Sostenible ADF) is a Spanish nonprofit foundation working across three areas: rural development, protection of vulnerable populations, and planet conservation. Its stated purpose is fully aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The foundation uses photography as one of its main tools, publishing photography books documenting nature and humanity, running an international nature-conservation photography contest called Nature and Humans, and organizing photography workshops and exhibitions with students.

It has been awarded the "Dona con Confianza" seal by Fundación Lealtad, an independent organization that evaluates NGOs in Spain.
