Step 2: Private foundations
Some funders and organisations place a limit on the number or type of proposals that may be submitted from each institution. Applications to the following funders should always be signed by the Vice-Chancellor.
Wallenberg Foundations
The Wallenberg Foundations are the charitable foundations established by members of the Wallenberg family. The three largest of these foundations are:
Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation (KAW)
Marianne and Marcus Wallenberg Foundation (MMW)
The Marcus and Amalia Wallenberg Foundation (MAW)
Wettergren Foundation
The Wettergren Foundation supports, primarily, education and research related to Värmland. The Board makes decisions on contributions twice a year, usually in April and November. Applications to the Wettergren Foundation must be approved and signed by the Deputy Dean at Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.
