Lloyd's Register Foundation

Today, we have launched a new and ambitious five-year strategy. Created in the context of a continually changing world, this builds on our work to date and remains in line with our charitable mission; to engineer a safer world. Explore now: lrfoundation.org.uk/about-us/strat…

We are officially back in the archive for 2025! 🙌 Why not explore our digital catalogue and dive into #maritime #history 👉🔗 hec.lrfoundation.org.uk/archive-library

#Collaboration builds #resilience! In June, GNDR & @LR_Foundation hosted a webinar on the #WorldRiskPoll Resilience Index. Key lessons? Community networks, tailored early warnings & locally-led solutions are vital for disaster preparedness. 📽️ buff.ly/4ch8dYM #GNDR2024

Making Spaces, funded by the Foundation and led by @UCL, has announced it will be running a new Accredited Trainer Course in 2025. They are recruiting 50 international STEM practitioners who will become accredited to deliver training in #Makerspaces. loom.ly/OuEgU0M

Our ‘World Risk Poll into Action’ #funding call remains open until Jan 10. We're inviting proposals for projects that use the Poll #data for further research and practical interventions that improve #safety – offering grants up to £250,000. Apply today: loom.ly/DFnng2o

As we reach the end of #2024, we would like to thank all the people in our global community who have helped advance our mission to engineer a safer world. Explore this year's highlights, insights, and ongoing transformation on our website: loom.ly/UnWCWno

The 8th Korea Shipbuilding & Marine Industry CEO Forum was recently held at @SeoulNatlUni's Lloyd’s Register Foundation Centre. Discussions focussed on the challenges and opportunities of future shipbuilding and the need to develop smart ship technologies. loom.ly/PJGw8_Q

We're proud to support the 2024 Rio Action Statement. Backed by 25 Foundations, it lays out a roadmap for philanthropy to drive resource mobilisation, advocacy and partnerships for Ocean Decade initiatives ahead of the 2025 UN Ocean Conference. loom.ly/C420nuU @IocUnesco

The Global Engineering Capability Review (GECR) 2024, to be launched next year, investigates the barriers that inhibit safe and innovative engineering practices around the world. Sign up on the Engineering X website to receive the GECR report first: loom.ly/g5-dHGk

Our partners @UCLRDR are looking for a PhD researcher to analyse World Risk Poll data and examine how perceptions of #climatechange threats to communities and countries have evolved over time. For more information and how to apply, please visit: loom.ly/ysHay4c

Join #EngineeringX and @ACEA_Africa for an upcoming #webinar - as they reflect on the outcomes of the 5th session of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee and explore how the #GlobalPlasticsTreaty can shape a sustainable future for the continent. 👉 loom.ly/tY9fNa0

Data from our latest #WorldRiskPoll report - ‘World the world worries about’ – reveals that road-related accidents remain the single biggest perceived risk to safety in the daily lives of one in six (16%) of the world’s adult population. Explore the Poll: loom.ly/NCTigJQ

We are inviting organisations to apply to our £15 mil #funding call, as we look to fund initiatives aimed at enhancing #safety across three interconnected priority areas: Safer #maritime systems, Safer, sustainable infrastructure, and Skilled people for safer #engineering. 🔗loom.ly/VLvOWII

Last week, we joined our colleagues from @NorthStarAfrica as they went into truck parks in Mombasa, Kenya, to deliver factsheets with essential health, road safety and cargo security messaging, which were developed as part of a project funded by @LR_Foundation.

Almost three quarters (71%) of North Africans now view climate change as a threat to people in their country, and a further 38% see it as ‘very serious’ – reveals recent #WorldRiskPoll data. Find out more 🔗 loom.ly/wKJYWCQ

Warm wishes from our CEO Nick Brown and all of us at LR. Thank you to our clients, partners, and colleagues for working with us this year to help create a safe, sustainable and thriving ocean economy. Here’s to continued growth, collaboration and success together in 2025.

#WorldRiskPoll data reveals that 72% of the world’s adult population now say #ClimateChange is a ‘somewhat’ or ‘very’ serious threat to people in their country in the next 20 years - 5 percentage points higher than the 67% measured in 2021 & 69% in 2019. loom.ly/NCTigJQ

In November, @LR_Foundation launched its new five-year strategy, which remains in line with our charitable mission; to engineer a safer world. We would love to hear your thoughts about our new strategy and how we can work together: loom.ly/xoVDKw8

We heard from experts from across the ports, #shipping and offshore renewable energy sectors share the current state of practice throughout Europe, identify emerging trends and discuss opportunities to scale the implementation of #nature-positive solutions.

The Foundation was present at the @sust_coalition’s latest roundtable on nature-positive #engineering in Brussels last week. Insights from this event will inform the final recommendations in our Nature-positive Engineering Foresight Review, to be launched in 2025. lrfoundation.org.uk/programmes/nat…
