General Information
We use a variety of methodologies in order to ensure the efficacy of our mission. In addition to the support we provide for third party projects, we work in partnership too, so as to act in the most efficient and complementary manner. We also conduct missions at the request of governments and institutions. Finally, we also develop our own projects relating to specific themes that we wish to champion as forerunners in a particular field. Partnership: To meet large-scale social challenges, we cooperate with associations, non-governmental organizations, research centres, companies, other foundations, etc. By combining our efforts, we can work more effectively in the field, whether in Belgium or abroad.
Mission and Objectives

Wide-ranging mission:
The mission of the King Baudouin Foundation is clear and at the same time wide-ranging: to help to improve living conditions for the population. In its 1976 Constitution the Foundation is described as "an independent structure that encourages original ideas and sets up new projects."
The King Baudouin Foundation supports projects and citizens who are committed to create a better society. In this way we can make a lasting contribution towards greater justice, democracy and respect for diversity.
Independent and pluralistic mission:
The Foundation works on an independent and pluralistic basis. This is also guaranteed by the diverse backgrounds of our Board of Governors and our 60 staff. We respect diversity and strive towards quality, transparency and integrity.
The Foundation focuses on specific themes and is based in Brussels, but also supports projects far beyond the borders of Belgium and Europe. By working together with a range of different organisations we aim to harmonise our own mission as effectively as possible with the efforts made by others.
