The seventh edition of Humana Day is dedicated to the importance of promoting quality, equitable and inclusive education for the advancement of the most disadvantaged communities in the Southern Hemisphere. Education is a key element in the fight against poverty and in the development of communities and individuals. The Sustainable Development Objective number 4 is dedicated to education and its main objective is to "guarantee and promote opportunities for lifelong learning for all".

Through the Textile Reuse Awards, the Foundation recognizes and appreciates the collaboration of citizens, city councils and companies in the field of reuse and recycling of used clothing and development cooperation.
