The Sigrid Rausing Trust was founded to promote international human rights. The grant programmes are Civil and Political Rights, Women’s Rights, Minority Rights, Social Justice and the Miscellaneous Fund. Each programme has a number of sub-programmes.
Grants may be ear-marked, or given as general support.
There is no minimum or maximum level for a grant.
Normally, partnership with grantees begin with one-year grant, followed by up to three cycles of three-year grants.
The Trust may also exceptionally consider supporting existing grantees with an Advancement Grant, designed to support a major infrastructure change for an organisation.
Emergency Funding is available in response to a sudden human rights crisis, or for the protection of human rights defenders. Emergency grants must be given via an existing or previous grantee, who can apply directly to their programme officer.
