Open Data
We are committed to giving people the information they need about our grant funding.
For this reason we support Open Data, which is data that is:
- published proactively
- provided in machine-readable formats (such as csv)
- provided for re-use
We adhere to the following principles in providing our data:
- timely publication – we will release and update our data on an annual basis
- we provide disaggregated data
- we use common standards by working with the 360Giving initiative to also publish our grant data through GrantNav
- respect privacy – only non-personal data is published
