Julius Baer Foundation’s Grant Program

Deadline Date: 13-Jan-2023

The Julius Baer Foundation supports partners that are impactful, well organized, and visionary, and that have a solid track record in their field. Please take the specified criteria within each strategic core area into consideration.

Core Areas
Education Inequality

The Julius Baer Foundation identifies and supports education projects and initiatives that help those born into poverty to break the cycle. Their goal is to lower the barriers that disadvantaged children experience as they compete for opportunities that are easily available to the privileged. Their approach focuses on providing abundant and diverse learning experiences beyond the standard curriculum and is based on the premise that to develop your talents, you must first discover them.

Wealth Inequality

The Julius Baer Foundation’s initiative is designed to raise awareness and to advance the international dialogue on wealth inequality. At www.wealth-inequality.net they bring together experts, key players and actors in the field to share their expertise, showcase their projects and bring examples of what works and what does not work against wealth inequality. Through a multi-stakeholder approach, they aspire to win broad support for this quest, raise awareness on the issue of inequality, and drive action to reduce it.

  • Your project falls into one of their two core areas: Wealth Inequality or Education Inequality;
