For 2011, the Ford Foundation gave the Suzanne Mubarak Regional Centre for Womens Health and Development a $120,000 grant for development and testing of a model school-based reproductive health education program for girls in Egypt. Use this interactive map of direct grants by U.S. grantmakers to non-U.S. recipients to find other such grants. Sort by country, grant organization, year, number of recipients, dollars and other ways. 2003-2011.

This is slightly weird isn't it? What are you hoping to achieve here? To point out that the Ford Foundation funds organizations that have links to former dictators? Or that there is an interactive map of grants?

Really it's just the maps. With Egypt being in the news in recent weeks, that was one of the first places I went when playing with the map. I posted it as a point that there are interesting things to find in there. As opposed to just some random map on a Saturday night that would get skipped over. Apologies if you got inflamed.

Maybe I should have pointed out all the grants to Switzerland. What's up with that?!

Sent an email to the mods requesting trimming to just the map.
