What we have supported – project overview from 1971
Here, you can search for all projects and grants since 1971.
Disclaimer for automatic extractions
The information from the dynamic grant overview is generated automatically. Therefore, the figures are indicative and rounded. Please also be aware that project titles may not always be available in both Danish and English.
In special cases where verified figures are needed, feel free to contact the secretariat of the foundations. The granted amounts in the overview do not include project supervision, which involves expenses for external consultancy in connection with the projects.
Furthermore, the current grant areas may include projects from previous grant areas as a result of the foundation’s strategic development over the years. For example, the grant area ‘Youth and education in Europe’ include projects from the time when the grant area focused on ‘Social initiatives abroad’ are included. Both grant areas originate from clause 3.4 of Villum Foundation’s Trust Deed and are therefore presented together.
To the right of the filters, various visualisation options are presented, such as ‘Grant per grant area’ or ‘Grant per year.’ All displayed charts are created based on the specified filters. The projects are shown under the charts either in a table or at an overview level, where you can sort by title, amount or year. Additionally, you can obtain further information about the projects by opening them with a single click.
