Working for JRF

“There is a time for hope and there is a time for realism. But what is needed now is beyond hope and realism. This is a time when we ought to dedicate ourselves to bringing about the greatest shift in human consciousness and in the way we live”. ~ Ben Okri

Thank you for your interest in Joseph Rowntree Foundation’s Emerging Futures Programme. The Programme is an ambitious nationally significant new grants and investment initiative.

Over the last 12 months, JRF has been having conversations with incredible people who are building alternative futures up and down the country, to learn about how we can support them. Through these conversations, we have developed the Emerging Futures programme. This inspiring programme sets out to shift significant resources into pioneering organisations, collectives and individuals who are reimagining the economic and social systems that are so badly failing people and planet today.
