The group consists of artists working in the entertainment sector. Through the creation and voice of the artist friends associated with our organization, we have continued the ‘cultural campaign’ to establish the entertainment sector as a violence-free, exploitation-free, safe, dignified, and orderly workplace, to establish the recognition identity of the workers, and to bring positive change in the attention of the concerned bodies and the way society views the entertainment sector. Our main goal is to call for the transformation of unequal thinking through a cultural campaign for the recognition, protection, and respect of labor.
