About Us

A global civic institution for public visual space.

The OOH Earth Foundation was established to address the systematic occupation of public visual space by commercial outdoor advertising — a phenomenon documented by the UN Special Rapporteur on Cultural Rights (A/69/286) as a threat to citizens' right to participate in the cultural life of their communities. The Foundation operates across six continents through 14 interconnected initiatives, documenting advertising offenses, supporting planning objections, producing community-commissioned outdoor media, and building the evidence base for regulatory reform. 100% community-funded. Zero venture capital. 60% of resources allocated to Global South communities where advertising regulation is weakest and corporate visual occupation is most severe.
