About Stiftelsen Olof Palmes Minnesfond för Internationell Förståelse och Gemensam Säkerhet

Stiftelsen Olof Palmes Minnesfond supports work that advances peace, democracy, human rights, international understanding, and shared security, with a strong emphasis on dialogue and solidarity across borders. Its giving is distinctive in that it combines a high-profile annual international prize with smaller stipend grants for education, exchange, anti-racism, and disarmament-related work, often benefiting individuals, youth, and mission-aligned organizations. The foundation appears especially interested in initiatives that build peace culture, counter xenophobia, and strengthen young people’s engagement with international cooperation.

Giving Approach

Annual prize plus biannual stipend grants; the Palme Prize is a 100,000 USD award for selected international laureates, while Palmestipendiet provides smaller grants to organizations and individuals (typically up to 70,000 SEK for organizations and up to 15,000 SEK for individuals, with rare exceptions higher). Applications/nominations are deadline-driven and appear to be reviewed in set cycles rather than through open rolling funding.
