The Good Intentions
For the 2024, IED and the Alumni community gathered some of the good intentions that, at least once, we've all set for ourselves, only to abandon them later. Twelve talented Alumni, in response to a call for charity launched by IED to support a social project called Parallelo Lab, have navigated with irony and great skill the wild terrain of New Year's questionable commitments, producing twelve images to which all of us can relate.
The images have been collected in the form a calendar, that has been produced by the vulnerable people and foreigners of Parallelo Lab and distributed to partner companies and stakeholders.
Take a look at the stories our Alumni want to tell us about our 2024!
