The Foundation’s Institutional Grants program has as its goal the
creation of effective policy changes to improve the lives of Latin
Americans. The Board of Directors has identified three program areas in
which focused, expert research and innovation has the potential to make
significant positive impact. Click on each link below to learn more
about grants in that program area.
- Democratic Governance
- Education
- Sustainable Resource Management
Projects should have a strong public policy component, offer
innovative solutions to problems facing these regions, and incorporate
new mechanisms for addressing these programmatic areas. Activities may
include, but are not restricted to, research projects, workshops and
conferences related to the Foundation's areas of interest. The
Foundation encourages collaboration among organizations in the United
States and Latin America and prefers to fund those institutions that are
actively engaged with external stakeholders in addressing an issue of
concern. Funding for general support may be considered on a limited
basis.
