Our priorities

We recognise that we can have greater impact if we focus our funding and activity.

 

Following publication of our 2025-29 strategy, we will focus our grant funding on the following democracy priorities:

 

Our priorities include:

 

  • Money in politics
  • Voter participation and election system reform
  • Political rights – freedom of expression and protest rights
  • Disinformation
  • Checks and balances

 

Here are the links to find out more about what we fund and what we don’t fund.
