Who are we?

The Gandhi Foundation exists to spread knowledge and understanding of the life and work of  Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869–1948). Our most important aim is to explain and demonstrate the continuing relevance of Gandhi’s insights and actions today.

Our activities

The Gandhi Foundation organises events and activities throughout the year. These cover a wide range of subjects but are focused on our aims and with our values at their core. Our events such as The Gandhi Peace Award and Annual Lecture are internationally recognised.
