The Consciousness Foundation exists to advance the science and development of consciousness across individuals, cultures and systems
Who We Are
We are a nonprofit organization based in California. Our core team has experience across academia, funding, startups, nonprofits and policy. We each hold a deep reverence for the sacredness of consciousness, and have collectively spent decades as practitioners and participants in the field.
What We Do
We fund pioneering research, support translational impact and advise aligned donors on where their capital can have the greatest long-term benefit. We communicate our findings to make consciousness legible to science, policy, and culture, and we connect researchers, funders, and institutions to build a coherent and rigorous field.
Vision
Our vision is of a future in which the nature and potential of consciousness is scientifically understood, practically accessible, and woven into culture for the flourishing of life.
Mission
Our mission is to foster progress in consciousness science through funding, research and development agendas and donor advice so that inner development becomes a primary pillar of society.
