About us

Overview

Our approach

Our view on philanthropy

“We feel that if we all do whatever we can with whatever we have, large or small, then each of us will help make our world a more equitable and positive environment for others to thrive in.”

Those words written by Andrew and Nicola in their letter to the Giving Pledge hold the spirit of Minderoo’s approach to philanthropy.

We dare to do what we can with what we have, and encourage others to give as well, so philanthropy can grow as a driver of positive change and civic participation.

Philanthropy can help shine a light on a problem, start a positive trend or prove a change is possible.

How we partner

Understanding our partners’ perspectives and their needs for achieving our shared outcomes is crucial to our approach.

We embrace transparency and actively seek feedback to enhance accountability and trust with our partners and the communities we serve. We amplify our impact through collaboration and by empowering our partners to deliver and deploy resources more effectively.

How we measure and learn

We are data-driven and guided by research from experts around the world to develop tools, standards and insights that inform and influence policy decisions, helping to create long-term positive impact.
We continually measure the effectiveness of our work, allowing us to learn, evolve our approach and actively share knowledge to accelerate and expand the reach of our work, now and for the future.
