IKEA Foundation
The IKEA Foundation is an independent philanthropic organization based in the Netherlands, legally and operationally distinct from the IKEA retail business. It focuses its funding on fighting global warming and improving livelihoods, organizing its strategy around three core climate domains: Energy; Land, Food & Forests; and Buildings & Transport, alongside emergency humanitarian response. Total cumulative funding reported exceeds €3 billion. The Foundation operates primarily by forming long-term, strategic partnerships with established NGOs, INGOs, multilateral agencies, and intermediary research organizations rather than funding individual researchers or uninvited projects.
