Interdisciplinary projects

VELUX FOUNDATION aims for a democratic and sustainable society on an enlightened and inclusive basis and will contribute with solutions to current and future societal challenges through interdisciplinary collaborations.

We work to enhance people’s lives and opportunities in a democratic and sustainable society

Our ambition is that by 2030, VELUX FOUNDATION will be leading and trend-setting in the development of innovative collaborations, both internally in the foundation and externally in the application environments, with the aim of collectively contributing solutions to current and future societal challenges.

We therefore prioritize interdisciplinary collaborations between our grant areas and actively support projects that work within two or more of the foundation's four grant areas:

  • Social initiatives
  • A sea in balance
  • Humanities and social science research and culture
  • Transitions and changes of adult life
