Building stronger societies
A world where 
people 
and institutions can work 
together 
to build just and 
fair societies.
What we do
We fund and support non-profit and for-profit organisations and advocate for policies and actions that can drive change. We prioritise delivering impact in four connected areas that underpin strong societies: Civic Empowerment, Data & Digital Rights, Financial Transparency, and Independent Media.
Our partners
Based around the world, our partners range from pioneering entrepreneurs to courageous global campaigners. Our support goes beyond the financial to include the practical services and advice they need to succeed.
