IDEAS is an independent, non-profit public policy research institute. Our work is made possible through a diverse range of funding sources that support our commitment to rigorous, evidence-based research.
We receive funding from foundations, international organisations, development partners, and private sector supporters. Funding is typically provided either for specific research projects or for broader institutional support.
All funding is accepted in line with IDEAS’ independence policy. We do not accept funding that is conditional on specific research outcomes, and we retain full editorial independence over all publications and outputs.
Details of our donors and contributions are published in our annual report as part of our commitment to transparency and accountability.
Our financial sustainability enables us to continue producing high-quality research and engaging with various stakeholders, contributing to efforts to build a better Malaysia for all.
All our publications are freely available for public access.
