Help shape a future where personal privacy is the norm, not the exception. The Ludlow Institute offers grants for:

• Research papers exploring surveillance technology
  We fund researchers who uncover the hidden methods that everyday devices and platforms use to track and exploit user data—often without awareness or consent.

• Research papers exploring privacy technology
  We fund investigations into privacy tools, protocols, or practices to assess how effectively they protect users—and to strengthen these solutions for a safer digital world.

By exposing underreported practices and analyzing protective solutions, Ludlow Institute Research Grants foster accountability, transparency, and better privacy for everyone.

Why It Matters

Each discovery—whether exposing unencrypted data flows, uncovering firmware backdoors, or verifying the effectiveness of privacy tools—empowers people to reclaim control of their digital lives. By supporting or participating in our grants program, you help uncover hidden surveillance, strengthen privacy solutions, and transform how technology is designed and used.
