Brief Information About Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation
The Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation was founded by Harry Guggenheim to support research on violence, aggression, and dominance.
HFG writes (He was convinced that solid, thoughtful, scholarly and scientific research, experimentation, and analysis would in the end accomplish more than the usual solutions impelled by urgency rather than understanding. HFG do not yet hold the solution to violence, but better analyses, more acute predictions, constructive criticisms, and new, effective ideas will come in time from investigations such as those supported by our grants).
Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation also places priority on the study of neuroscience, genetics, animal behaviour, the social sciences, history, criminology, and the humanities which illuminate modern human problems.
The HFG Awards are offered to aid the study of aspects of violence related to youth, family relationships, media effects, crime, biological factors, intergroup conflict related to religion, ethnicity, and nationalism, and political violence deployed in war and sub-state terrorism.
