Funding pattern

What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.

Where the money goes

General support for democracy and civil society groups worldwide
Open Society network affiliates and national foundations abroad
Human rights defenders, accountability, and justice organizations
Green industrial policy, climate finance, and economic development research
Higher education tied to Bard, CEU, and the Open Society University Network
Latin American and African policy research and civic power building

Typical grant

Median grant is $250,000, with the middle half running $105,000 to $500,000. The eight-figure checks go to network entities and long-standing institutional partners such as Open Society Foundation London, Bard College, Central European University, and the Soros Economic Development Fund, while most everyone else lands between $100,000 and $1 million. Many recipients appear more than once in the same year and across years, so repeat and multi-tranche giving is the norm rather than the exception.

Their words

Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.

“TO PROVIDE GENERAL SUPPORT”
“open, democratic societies around the world”
“TO CONDUCT RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS”
“green industrial policy”
“civil society, inclusion, and human rights”
“marginalized communities”

Positioning adjacent work

Tie research to green industrial policy, climate finance, or state capacity in the Global South.
Ask $250,000 to $1 million; above that requires an existing institutional relationship.
Frame outputs as research and analysis that informs policymakers, not academic publication.
Consider a fiscal sponsor like New Venture Fund, Proteus, or Amalgamated; they fund these routinely.

Worth knowing: Money concentrates hard in New York and Washington DC and in the Open Society network itself, with a handful of affiliates and Bard-linked entities absorbing several hundred million. Giving looks strongly relationship-driven and heavily international, so a cold approach from an unconnected US-based researcher faces long odds without a partner already inside their portfolio.
