Calls for Proposals of the Robert Bosch Foundation

The Robert Bosch Foundation offers a transparent funding opportunity through its nationwide, thematically focused calls for proposals for effective and sustainable projects in the areas of health, education, migration, labor & social affairs, as well as vocational training & further education. Non-profit organizations, public institutions, educational establishments, start-ups, and companies of all sizes can apply for grants within the framework of these calls. The goal is to support strategically relevant initiatives through targeted allocation of funds that make a measurable contribution to social development. Since unsolicited inquiries are not processed, project funding is granted exclusively based on the published call guidelines.

For a successful application, the submission of a detailed project description, a budget and financing plan, as well as, if applicable, proof of non-profit status and an organizational profile are required. Evaluation criteria include alignment with the thematic priorities, strategic relevance to the Foundation’s objectives, sustainability and impact of the project, as well as realistic prospects for success. Deadlines vary depending on the call; interested project partners should therefore observe the respective submission dates. Through the structured call process, all participants benefit from equally available information, clear requirements, and improved planning opportunities – an invitation to submit innovative concepts in a targeted and equitable manner.
