The Long-Term Future Fund aims to positively influence the long-term trajectory of civilization, primarily via making grants that contribute to the mitigation of global catastrophic risks. The fund has an intentionally broad remit that encompasses a wide range of potential projects, but we are particularly interested in small teams and individuals that are trying to get projects off the ground, or that need less money than existing grant-making institutions are likely to give out.

Grant sizes are typically between $5,000 and $200,000, but can be as low as $1,000 and higher than $500,000.

Launched with $1 million grant from the Thiel Foundation, the mission is to jumpstart high-risk, high-reward ideas that advance prosperity, opportunity, and wellbeing. The fellowship provides participants with the short-term resources and support to quickly develop and test their ideas.

We currently focus on reducing the worst risks of astronomical suffering (s-risks) from emerging technologies, with a focus on transformative artificial intelligence. Together with others in the effective altruism community, we want careful ethical reflection to guide the future of our civilization to the greatest extent possible. We want to prevent a situation similar to the advent of nuclear weapons, in which thinking about the serious implications of this technology took a back seat during th

We would like to work with people who: are driven by maximising altruistic impact, and intellectually curious about how to best do so share our suffering-focused values and are passionate about our mission excel at self-directed work without strong supervision are familiar with the core ideas of effective altruism, s-risks, and suffering-focused ethics As a small and entirely remote-based organisation, CRS is flexible about different forms of involvement.

The Wild Animal Initiative does not currently have an open call for proposals (last checked 7/12/21) however they 'issue ad-hoc grants for exceptional projects [and] connect researchers to other sources of funding,' so it may be useful to reach out if you're working on wild animal welfare

The fund's main focus areas are here: https://www.fsrfund.org/research-focus. However they state "we will consider proposals year-round that align with our greater mission to promote the reduction and elimination of animals from the human food system, even if they do not fall squarely within these RFPs."

Our grants generally range from several thousand to thirty thousand USD, but we will consider any grant small or large.

Our Ph.D. students undertake rigorous program requirements that include courses in policy analysis, economics, quantitative and qualitative analysis, social and behavioral sciences, technology and society, and ethics.

Pardee RAND Graduate School is committed to fully supporting its Ph.D. students for five years through a generous scholarship and a research fellowship that, together, cover tuition and provide a stipend for living expenses.

The Foundation welcomes proposals from promising scientists, researchers, institutions and students. Funding from the LSF can be used for research, scholarships for scientists and clinicians, operational costs for longevity-focused organisations and more.

The fund provides grants to research projects that further its mission. It's three areas of focus are "Advance understanding of suffering's biological basis," "Model the global distribution of suffering," and "Effectively minimize suffering now"

The HSA offers funding for research and other projects aimed at improving the welfare of livestock animals during transport, in markets and at slaughter or killing for emergency purposes. We support scientific research, education and training. These awards can support activities which will improve the welfare of (or allow us to better understand welfare challenges to) livestock animals during marketing, transport, slaughter or emergency killing. For example, grants could be used to cover resea
