Details

The Trust funds projects that focus on the prevention (rather than the alleviation) of human suffering. The Trust has three grant priority areas: Medical, Social and Religious, with education being a central theme that runs across all three. Trustees welcome projects that relate to more than one priority area.

All Trust grants must fall under one or both of the following categories:

• Innovative research projects: those which explore and test new ideas, methods, approaches, interventions and/or devices.
• Pioneering / ground-breaking development projects: those which are original and represent the first of their kind and/or lay the foundations for further developments.
