The Culture & Animals Foundation (CAF) provides annual grants to scholars and artists using their intellect, creativity, and compassion to build a deeper understanding of human–animal relationships and a greater respect for animal rights. Academic and artistic projects will be considered in three categories:
Research: Scholarly projects about animal advocacy and its cultural roots and impact; Creativity: Original work by artists and thinkers that expresses positive concern for animals.
Performance: Public performances and exhibitions, including the products of their research and creative grants, to raise awareness of animal advocacy.
Types of Projects Eligible
CAF funds academic and artistic projects that raise public awareness about animal rights. Grants are awarded in three categories: Research (scholarly projects about animal advocacy and its cultural roots and impact); Creativity (original work by artists and thinkers that expresses positive concern for animals); and Performance (public performances and exhibitions to raise awareness of animal advocacy).
Ineligible
CAF does not fund “hands-on” projects, including animal rescue, public protest or trap- neuter-release programs. CAF also does not support species conservation projects, unless they include a commitment to animal rights and fit into one of their three categories of creativity, performance, or research. CAF does not fund projects that consist entirely of attending or speaking at a conference or conferences. It does not fund book production (CAF does support research and writing). CAF does not fund indirect costs: no portion of a CAF grant may be used for “administrative costs,” “overhead,” or any other form of indirect cost.
Eligibility Criteria
CAF accepts grant applications from any country.
