Swiss Re Foundation

The foundation aims to alleviate social and humanitarian problems worldwide and make societies more resilient in the face of a rapidly changing environment. The foundation supports efforts to combat social, economic, and ecological imbalances caused by macro-developments such as natural disasters, climate change, population growth, or pandemics. To make a sustainable contribution to societal development, the foundation can support projects, institutions, or organizations active in the fields of education and training, research and innovation, development aid, as well as the promotion of social responsibility and societal and political discourse. The foundation can operate regionally and locally in the prevention of risks, adaptation to changed risk situations, and combating the consequences of disasters. It supports volunteer work and other activities of social and societal relevance. The foundation is politically and denominationally neutral and does not pursue any commercial or self-help purposes.
