Deadline: 28th March 2023
The Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust is keen to support work that responds to the dual harms of the Covid-19 pandemic and systemic racism. Specifically, they wish to encourage work within or across our existing programme areas that scrutinises the responses and policies of powerful institutions and actors, and which envisions and builds support for transformative social change based on justice, peace and sustainability.
The trust is interested in funding work which:
is about removing problems through radical solutions, and not simply about making problems easier to live with,
has a clear sense of objectives, and how to achieve them,
is innovative and imaginative,
where the grant has a good chance of making a difference.
The trustees have agreed on the following priority areas and welcome applications for funds under each of these headings:
Peace and Security
Power and Accountability
Rights and Justice
Sustainable Future
The trust wishes to prioritise support for charitable work on the following issues:
Challenging militarism
Scrutiny of counter-terrorism measures in the context of human rights and peacebuilding
Building support for alternative approaches to defence and security
