Summary

The Robert Bosch Stiftung (Robert Bosch Foundation) is one of Germany's largest private foundations. This page primarily describes the foundation's own sustainability commitments — including a net-zero target by 2050, renewable energy use, and emission reduction measures — but also references their dedicated Climate Change funding priority established in 2020. The Climate Change funding theme focuses on "just and sustainable systems for land use and nutrition." The foundation identifies that current land use and food systems generate approximately 32% of global greenhouse gas emissions and aims to strengthen communities and organizations working toward equitable, sustainable land use transformation. Strategic geographic focus areas are Germany within the European context, West Africa, and West Asia. The foundation funds projects through thematically defined calls for proposals. Notable supported initiatives include community-based regional food system planning, youth climate negotiation programs, agricultural think tanks, and bioregional participatory processes. However, this page does not constitute a specific open call for proposals — it is the foundation's institutional sustainability page. Prospective applicants should watch for specific calls published by the foundation within their thematic areas. The foundation does not accept unsolicited applications outside of published calls. Funding is provided through grants to organizations and initiatives that align with the foundation's strategic priorities.

Historical Context

The Climate Change funding priority was established in 2020. The foundation tracks its own carbon footprint since 2019 (baseline: 998 tons CO2e). The foundation is one of Germany's largest private foundations, associated with the Bosch corporate family.
