The Foundation, ideologically and politically neutral, strives to create the best conditions for young people to develop new and creative ideas, understand their role in society and quench their thirst for knowledge. Students admitted to the support programme can access interdisciplinary educational offerings, personal counselling, and financial aid and take advantage of many opportunities to extend their network of contacts.
