The Audacious Project supports big ideas to foster change around the world’s most urgent challenges. Today, this innovative funding initiative, housed at TED, is announcing its new cohort of projects for 2024, which are as bold as ever — from an idea to repurpose generic drugs en masse to reach the 300 million people globally who lack viable treatments to a new initiative that will evaluate AI systems for dangerous capabilities before release.
The Audacious Project encourages the world’s greatest changemakers to dream bigger than they can imagine — then helps shape their ideas into viable multi-year plans and launch them alongside some of the biggest names in philanthropy. Cumulatively, more than $725M has been raised to support these projects, which now have the resources to begin the work.
