The LEGO Foundation Fellowship

The LEGO Foundation Fellowship is sponsored by The LEGO Foundation. This fellowship supports researchers focusing on children's thriving, with one of the key themes being the inclusion and wellbeing of neurodivergent children, particularly those with Autism and ADHD. The goal is to strengthen support for neurodivergent children and their families by delivering proven interventions.

Every child deserves a childhood ### We believe childhood is not just a phase of life _— it’s the making of one. _ **Since 1986, we have worked to nurture and protect childhood, supporting efforts that help children grow, learn and become. ** We focus on the realities children face, addressing barriers, supporting learners of all abilities, and responding where children are touched by crises and humanitarian needs.

By investing in the holistic ecosystems that shape childhood — from families and schools to communities and entire societies – we work to strengthen access to education, creativity and play. This includes both grantmaking and impact investments supporting solutions that can grow and reach more children over time. Through partnerships in Denmark and around the world, we work alongside those closest to children’s lives.

Together, we build evidence to drive lasting change — improving systems, lifting up young learners, and creating the conditions for every child, everywhere to thrive and grow.

* Crisis & humanitarian settings * Special Educational Needs & learning opportunities * Building evidence, shaping impact Shaping better childhoods ### When childhood thrives, the world thrives with it Our childhood shapes who we are, planting seeds that grow with us throughout our lives. From our earliest experiences and memories – concepts and ideas spark curiosity and take us in new directions. Boundaries are tested.

Confidence is built, knocked, and rebuilt again. Our sense of self begins to emerge alongside our sense of belonging. As we grow, the seeds planted in our childhood grow with us, shaping how we relate.

How we cope in struggle. How we decide what’s possible. At the LEGO Foundation, we believe every young person deserves a childhood that lets them be a child.

Education, belonging, play, support and safety are not just essential building blocks of childhood; they’re the foundation for everything that comes after. ### In every child there is a universe unfolding, and the stars around it to help it expand. When we get it right, we set a child up for life.
