The Herald has profiled Dr Patricia Turner and Dr Ewan Kirk, highlighting the organisation’s distinctive approach to philanthropy and its guiding principle of giving projects “permission to fail.”
In this article for Research Professional News, Ewan Kirk argues that philanthropy has a vital role to play in funding bold, experimental projects that governments are often too risk-averse to support.
The Turner Kirk Centre for Spatial Reasoning was launched by the University of Glasgow and is supported by the Scottish Government. News of the launch has been reported in a series of leading publications across the UK.
Digital Journal has covered the Turner Kirk Trust’s support for groundbreaking research on Antarctic krill, a key species in the fight against climate change.
