Mission & Interests

Goals: To create a better everyday life for the many people. To improve the lives of vulnerable children by enabling their families to create sustainable livelihoods, and fight and cope with climate change. The main objective of the IKEA Foundation is to improve the lives of children living in poverty by supporting programmes that help families afford a better everyday life and protect the planet. The Foundation has adopted a convergent commitment to improve economic livelihoods and the health of the planet. The IKEA Foundation strongly believes that improving the lives of people and protecting the planet need not be in conflict, and that in fact advancing these two goals in harmony is achievable. True to our vision—a better everyday life for the many people—we have a positive worldview. We feel it is our responsibility to articulate and advocate for this vision.
