Henry M Jackson Foundation
Unverified non-profit organisation
The Henry M Jackson Foundation seeks to promote dialogue between the academic and policy worlds, between the public and private sectors, and between citizens and their government. It offers a human rights grants program primarily to Russia, seeking to make a lasting contribution by assisting groups that are easing Russia’s transition from communism to democracy.
The Foundation seeks to perpetuate Senator Jackson’s legacy by making grants and engaging in strategic initiatives in four program areas, reflecting the issues in which the senator played a critical role during his tenure in Congress:
- International Affairs Education
- Environment and Natural Resources Management
- Public Service
- Human Rights
