John Templeton Foundation: New Assessments and Measures of Virtues – Preliminary proposals

Both scientific research on character development and the design of interventions intended to promote it require measures of, or techniques for assessing, virtues in individuals. The present competition aims to support the development of meaningful, valid, and reliable measures or assessments of virtues, especially virtues that are enumerated in the Foundation’s charter (www.templeton.org/what-we-fund/core-funding-areas/character-development). Funding: up to $250K over 2 years. The Foundation will award up to $3 million in grants in this competition.
