Overview

Ove Arup Foundation is committed to promoting education and knowledge in the built environment through the interdisciplinary nature of design. The Foundation’s collaborative approach is a catalyst in the development of new initiatives and research.

The Foundation commissions research and instigates new educational initiatives that enhance new thinking in the built environment.

In deciding whether to agree to a request for assistance, the Foundation will first need to determine that the application is relevant to the Foundation’s aims.

Each initiative awarded a grant by the Foundation will be assigned a Trustee, who will liaise with the organisation or individual to offer advice and encouragement. At the end of the grant-period, the sponsored organisation is required to produce a report on how its initiative has progressed, the outcomes and how the grant aided this. The Foundation may post notice of the grant or project outcome on this website.

Small, one-off donations are occasionally considered for a purpose or activity that the Foundation views as worthwhile in itself.
