The Foundation directs its support to activities that are within its current interests and are likely to have a wide effect. Open Society Fellowship. The Open Society Fellowship was founded in 2008 to support individuals pursuing innovative and unconventional approaches to fundamental open society challenges.

Open Society Fellowship

The fellowship funds work that will enrich public understanding of those challenges and stimulate far-reaching and probing conversations within the Open Society Foundations and in the world. A fellowship project might identify a problem that has not previously been recognized, develop new policy ideas to address familiar problems, or offer a new advocacy strategy. Project themes should cut across at least two areas of interest to the Open Society Foundations. Among these are human rights, government transparency, access to information and to justice, and the promotion of civil society and social inclusion.

Fellows are expected to take full advantage of the foundations’ expansive reach and work to bring new people and fresh ideas into the organization’s ambit. For Grant Seekers / China / Regions. Home. Asia Guidelines and Restrictions. About Us / Who We Are. The Virginia Gildersleeve International Fund (VGIF) was founded in 1969 by eleven members of the International Federation of University Women.

About Us / Who We Are

Initially, the Fund assisted women college graduates — particularly in low per capita income countries — to identify and implement solutions to a variety of problems confronting their nations. Grants of small amounts of money were awarded in aid for educational projects and other community development projects affecting the condition of women and girls. Within a decade, the Fund broadened its original purpose and began to encompass projects beyond those narrowly aimed at university women and to utilize a variety of conduits for aid. VGIF Milestones During its 45-year history, VGIF has moved from helping women participate in international discussions and supporting women who explored urgent issue within their own countries to supporting women addressing specific issues in their own communities.
