While BMW is widely recognized for its vehicle production worldwide, the automaker also has a charitable division that supports important causes. Recently, BMW Group teamed up with the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations to celebrate a U.S.-based grassroots initiative called the “Content Creation Lab.” The recognition occurred during the 10th annual Global Forum of the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC).
The initiative, “Content Creation Lab,” is part of Global Nomads Group, an organization headquartered in the U.S. Content Creation Lab is one of 10 initiatives operated by the group. Global Nomads Group was awarded the Intercultural Innovation Hub (IIH) award, a collaborative effort between BMW Group and UNAOC.
Despite Global Nomads Group and the Content Creation Lab originating in the U.S., the awards ceremony took place in Cascais, Portugal, at the 10th UNAOC Global Forum. This year's forum, titled “United in Peace: Restoring Trust, Reshaping the Future - Reflecting on Two Decades of Dialogue for Humanity,” gathered an impressive audience, including high-profile political figures, UN representatives, and other prominent individuals. Together, they discussed the UNAOC's accomplishments over the last 20 years.

About Content Creation Lab
Content Creation Lab was founded in 1998 by a group of college friends who wanted to connect young people internationally through dialogue and meaningful discussions. They gathered the necessary equipment and traveled to countries like Sudan, Iraq, Rwanda, and Syria. Content Creation Lab was the foundation that led to the creation of Global Nomads Group.
