Description
1) Objective
The Charles Léopold Mayer Foundation for Human Progress (FPH) is a Swiss foundation created in 1982. The Foundation’s mission is to finance, through grant funding or loans, research and action contributing in a significant and innovative way to the progress of humankind through science and social development. Its work focuses on governance, ethics, and sustainable modes of living.
FPH provides long-term core funding to civil society organisations that put forward alternatives and advocate on the issues covered by the ten programmes that have been selected for the budget period running from 2021 to 2023:
- P01 – Regional Integration, Peace and Cooperation
- P02 – Territorialised Sustainable Food Systems
- P03 – Territories and Bioregionalism
- P04 – Ecological Economics
- P05 – Technological Democracy, Econological Technologies and Low-Tech
- P06 – Regulation of Transnational Companies and Sustainable Sectors
- P07 – Democracy and the Rule of Law
- P08 – Alter-Globalist Movements
- P09 – Energy and Climate
- P10 – Capitalisation, Structuring Information and Conferences
2) Eligibility
Non-profit organisations which support the following key areas are eligible to apply: (1) technical democracy; (2) good governance; (3) ethics and responsibility; (4) sustainable society; (5) cultural exchange and (6) economic development. Most of their grantees are French.
3) Location
Actions must take place in Sub-Saharan Africa, East Asia, Latin America, Middle East and North Africa, Caucasus, and Central Asia, and Europe.
4) Budget
Most of the budget is earmarked for a period of three years. Most grants are in the range of €20,000-€100,000.
5) Application
During this period, given that most of their resources are already allocated, it is rare for the Foundation Board to open up new partnerships. If however you still wish to put in a request, you can write to them at their postal address or send an email to: contact.fph(a)fph.ch.
