Supports projects in arts, culture, and environmental sustainability.
The Allianz Foundation is a charitable organization that focuses on supporting projects in the areas of arts and culture, European civil society, and climate and the environment. The foundation operates primarily in Europe and the Mediterranean region, aiming to promote solidarity, community, and respect through cooperative initiatives. The foundation provides grants ranging from 80,000 to 225,000 euros for projects with a maximum duration of 24 months. The funding period for the current program runs from August 1, 2024, to December 31, 2026. To receive funding, projects must meet specific criteria, including being realized by at least two equal partners, taking a systemic view of areas of action, developing a sustainable vision, transcending national borders while having strong local roots, and using natural resources economically. The foundation particularly welcomes transdisciplinary applications that promote change through cooperation. The Allianz Foundation has a significant endowment, with 100 million euros contributed by the Allianz Environmental Foundation and the Allianz Cultural Foundation, and receives an annual grant of 5 million euros from Allianz SE until 2032.
