The Tinker Foundation awards Institutional Grants to organizations and institutions that promote the interchange and exchange of information within the community of those concerned with the affairs of Spain, Portugal, Ibero-America, and Antarctica. (For the foundation's purposes, Ibero-America is defined as the Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking countries of the Western Hemisphere.). Programmatically, the foundation funds projects addressing environmental policy, economic policy, or governance issues. Projects should have a strong public policy component, offer innovative solutions to problems facing these regions, and incorporate new mechanisms for addressing these programmatic areas. Activities may include, but are not limited to, research projects and conferences related to the foundation's areas of interest. The foundation encourages collaboration between organizations in the United States and Iberia or Latin America and among institutions in those regions.
