Funds are paid out in July and August each year. The total amount for each recipient is determined by the fund’s annual size.
The Arctic Fox Initiative has a few expectations from organisations that receive funds. We request that they provide information about their project and activities, updates on results after execution, and a financial overview of how funds are used. We also request that they be open to co-create content for Fjällräven channels. Including sharing images, blog posts, videos, stories, etc.
