Migros Commitment grants support and boost innovative project proposals geared towards participation, personal responsibility and social relevance.

We promote social cohesion. By providing funding, the Migros Culture Percentage supports and encourages innovative project ideas that revolve around participation, individual responsibility and social relevance. Projects may be regional, national or international in scope.

Within Switzerland, the focus is on activities in the following areas:

  • gender
  • inter-generational relationships
  • health (especially the promotion of mental and social health)
  • promoting creativity
  • early-years education
  • life and family models
  • migration/integration
  • new and open learning cultures
  • neighbourhood development
  • volunteering and civil society

When assessing projects we place particular emphasis on sustainability, professionalism, good governance, effectiveness, gender & diversity and the proportionate use of resources.
