Fundación MAPFRE

Fundación MAPFRE, founded in 1975, is promoted by MAPFRE Mutualidad de Seguros, one of Spain’s leading insurance companies and MAPFRE Mutua Patronal de Accidentes de Trabajo (Worker’s Compensation Mutual). It was officially recognised as a private cultural foundation by the Ministry of Education and Science in 1976.

Fundación MAPFRE is fully aware of the fact that only by understanding the new realities of this changing world will we be able to move forward with this global project which is structured around different areas of action. To achieve their goals, they organize a wide range of activities worldwide in five key areas that all share a common objective: our ethical commitment to society.

The five areas in which their activities are based are: Social Action, Culture, Health Promotion, Prevention and Road Safety and Insurance and Social Protection. They also have a Documentation Center that offers a free information service for the general public on Insurance, Risk Management and Social Security, as well as related subjects such as Economics and Law; and the Ageingnomics Research Center that aims to promote a positive view of demographic change based on the economic and social opportunities that come with an ageing population.
