Inlaks Shivdasani Foundation Details
The Inlaks Foundation now renamed as The Inlaks Shivdasani Foundation was established in 1976 by Indoo Shivdasani to incorporate his existing philanthropic activities and to provide a permanent, independent body for the expansion of these activities. The Foundation focuses on providing scholarships, grants and awards in various fields to outstanding young Indians to enable them to develop their professional, scientific, artistic and cultural abilities both abroad and in India. It prides itself on being open to a wide range of subjects, many of which are not covered by other fund-giving bodies. Over the last four decades, over 600 scholars have benefited from overseas scholarships while over 450 have received awards and Take-Off Grants in India and abroad.The list of Inlaks alumni reflects the diversity of scholars that the Foundation has supported, many of whom are leaders in their chosen fields globally. The key to the Inlaks approach is recognizing and honoring individual talent. In 2008, the Foundation instituted the Inlaks Research and Travel Grant to enable registered PhD students of Indian universities to undertake short-term visits to institutions abroad to collect material, use facilities and consult experts. In the last few decades, Indian art has enjoyed a vibrant and flourishing presence globally, although the financial support to young artists entering the domain has remained limited. Considering this, in 2012 the Fine Arts Award was enhanced and artist residencies included for young emerging artists. Residencies are also offered to artists, curators along with dancers and choreographers, both in India and abroad. For young artists and curators support is extended to exhibit their works too. Museum professionals are also supported for professional development.
