    Goals / Remit

    The King Baudouin Foundation is an independent, pluralistic foundation working at the local, regional, federal, European and international levels. Because our mission is to change society for the better we invest in inspiring projects and individuals. In 2015, the King Baudouin Foundation and the Funds it administers provided €34.8 million in support to 264 individuals and 1,813 organizations. Projects were funded in the areas of poverty, health, development, civic engagement and heritage, among others.

    The Foundation also organizes seminars, round table discussions and exhibitions. The King Baudouin Foundation shares experience and research results through free publications. We work in partnership with civil society organizations and encourage philanthropy – working 'through' rather than 'for' the King Baudouin Foundation.

    We benefit from the free services of 2,155 experts in our steering groups, advisory committees, management committees and independent juries. Their generous efforts ensure that the right choices are made on an independent, pluralistic basis.
