The Toyota Foundation

Communication with Society Program for Fiscal 2017

In the same manner as previous years, this Foundation-driven program is aimed at promoting results and methods of past projects founded by the Toyota Foundation grants.

It especially seeks to support projects that intend to change the very structures of society by making policy proposals based on the insights generated by past projects. The Foundation identifies candidate projects through monitoring and other screening methods, and the grant recipients and program officers collaborate to effectively disseminate proposals to society.
