OUR  STORIES

• Empowering Women: the Most Effective Tool for DevelopmentEmpowering women through financial security sparks change that is about so much more than money. It enables women to gain greater control over many other aspects of their lives.
• Support for Mahachulalongkornrajavidyalaya University and Related ProjectsThrough several grants since 2004, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) has supported building projects, equipment purchase, and educational programs in northern Thailand, provinces of eastern Myanmar, and regions of Lao.
• Ten-Week Free Run of Antigone in Ferguson Draws to a Close in BrooklynAs exemplified by the company’s name, Theater of War is adept at taking words whose meaning we think we know—or had taken as granted without thinking much about them—and making us encounter their significance anew.
• A Βig Βirthday, a Return to our Roots, and a Look at Who We AreToday marks the 110th anniversary of our founder’s birth. Though Stavros Niarchos passed away in 1996, the Foundation bearing his name reflects his roots and is guided by his vision.

• A New Museum for the New Colossus“Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,” begins Emma Lazarus’s well-known poem affixed to the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty.
• Leadership in a Disrupted World: a Tällberg Foundation workshopA team from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation and iMEdD—Andreas Dracopoulos, Stelios Vasilakis, Anna-Kynthia Bousdoukou, Stratis Trilikis—traveled to Cairo to participate in a Tällberg Foundation workshop.
• A Decade of Collaboration between SNF and Chatham HouseWhen someone refers to the Chatham House Rule, they’re invoking both a specific guideline for discussion and the broader philosophy that underpins it.
• Penn finds Αncient Ιnspiration for the Education of Modern CitizensIn a city whose name is drawn from the Greek for “brotherly love,” perhaps it’s only natural to turn to ancient Greece for inspiration.
