The MacArthur Foundation supports "creative people and effective institutions committed to building a more just, verdant and peaceful world." In addition to selecting the MacArthur Fellows, the foundation works to defend human rights, advance global conservation and security, make cities better places and understand how technology is affecting children and society. Through the support it provides, the foundation fosters "the development of knowledge, nurtures individual creativity, strengthens institutions, helps improve public policy and provides information to the public, primarily through support for public-interest media."
