The Vidanta Foundation was established in 2005 by Mexican philanthropist Daniel Chávez Morán, the founder of the vacation destination, golf course, and real estate development company Grupo Vidanta. The Vidanta Foundation focuses on the social sciences and democratic values within Latin America and the Caribbean, promoting greater consciousness of key issues impacting the region’s economic and social development. The non-profit organization seeks to foster humanitarian values and solidarity among the population in general, galvanizing public policy while also promoting corporate philanthropy and social responsibility. Every year the organization grants monetary awards to non-profits that are doing outstanding work in their field. Through these efforts, the foundation has been able to support a diverse variety of causes, including healthcare, education, and equal rights. The Vidanta Foundation has also worked with leading organizations in Latin America and around the world on initiatives to encourage growth and public understanding of key issues in the region, including partnerships with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), Latin American Council for International Relations, the Inter-American Dialogue, Colegio de México (COLMEX), Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), Centro de Investigación y Docencia Económicas (CIDE), and more.
