The eco project Make the Earth Smile comprises 13 art installations reflecting 13 critical spheres of human life, in which human particularly harms the Earth. The aim of the project is to teach the young generation a new lifestyle, which eventually will lead to positive impact. Nargis brochures, which describe 13 useful habits that each of us should establish to help the environment, were distributed at the exhibition. The number 13 was chosen not by chance – on December 13 Nargis magazine celebrates its birthday.

Leyla Aliyeva visited the exhibition on the opening day along with about 150 guests, among them – partners and friends of Nargis, representatives of foreign embassies in Azerbaijan, representatives of ministries, artists and gallerists. Education Minister Jeyhun Bayramov also attended the exhibition and suggested an eco project for further cooperation with Nargis Publishing House within the education system. Following, the team of Nargis magazine and Editor in Chief of Nargis Magazine Ulviyya Mahmudova planted an olive tree on the boulevard.

This was not the first exhibition organized by Nargis team: this April, the Nargis Publishing House presented an exhibition of exclusive photographs taken in six years of the magazine's existence in Istanbul, and in July a charity exhibition Women, Children and Well-Being took place in the Museum of Modern Art in Baku, part of the photo sales profit was sent to the charity fund Nargis.
