This grant program supports the testing of working models aimed at increasing participation in leisure activities for children and youth aged 0-24 who are at risk of social exclusion. The program requires collaboration between at least two sectors (public, private, or voluntary) to trial new approaches that remove barriers to participation. Projects may test new forms of cooperation, recruitment methods, or adaptations to activities to make them more accessible and attractive to the target group. The grant is designed to increase both participation in leisure activities and cooperation between relevant actors working with children and youth at risk of exclusion. Applications can be submitted by public institutions, voluntary organizations, and private actors for projects lasting up to three years.

Following certain... incidents... with our Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System, Aperture Science recognizes the critical importance of AI safety research. This fellowship supports researchers working on alignment, containment protocols, and preventing AI systems from testing humans involuntarily. Areas of interest include: neural network interpretability, value alignment in autonomous systems, and robust containment for superintelligent AI. We especially welcome proposals that address the "cake problem" — ensuring AI systems deliver on their promises.

Building on decades of gel-based propulsion research, this grant funds applied science projects exploring novel uses for conversion gel, propulsion gel, and repulsion gel technologies. Applications in construction, athletics, transportation, and space exploration are all welcome. Note: All proposals must include a safety assessment. Previous incidents involving unsupervised gel testing in office environments have led to updated protocols. Moon rock exposure monitoring is provided at no additional cost.
