For foundations & institutional partners

A new institute, built to be examined

IHE was founded in 2026, so we won't show you a long track record. We will show you something we think matters more: an institute that is open-science by design, with independent governance written into its structure, and a documentation habit that already covers every dollar of its first field mission.

What a grant funds today

Three concrete lines of work

The MindWorkIn pilot

Our cognitive skills program, in active pilot with 200 participants planned for year one. The metrics are declared up front: self-reported decision clarity, attention regulation measured with cognitive tasks, metacognitive calibration accuracy, and overall wellbeing.

Humanitarian response in Venezuela

The July mission is completed and documented. The donation inventory is public and spending is tracked to the receipt. The next mission departs September 15, 2026.

The next two programs

Emotional Architecture, a multi-week emotional skills curriculum planned to pilot in year two, subject to Ethics Committee approval; and Intentional Partnering, in research through year three.

What a funder receives

Evidence, budgets, receipts, and people

Published evidence and protocols
Our frameworks and methods are published, and each framework states plainly what it does not claim.
Detailed budgets on request
Bottom-up budgets for any program or mission, available to any funder who asks.
Reports with receipts and photos
Field spending is documented with receipts, photographs, and delivery records. The July mission's donation inventory is public; take it as a sample of how we report.
Direct access to the team
Funders speak directly with the people running the work. No layers in between.

The intellectual base

Three published frameworks

Perceptual Practice

How we perceive the world and how to respond with less reactivity: noticing, sourcing, calibrating.

Emotional Architecture

Emotional life as a set of learnable skills: recognition, regulation, inquiry, integration.

Intentional Partnering

Choosing a long-term partner deliberately: values, self-knowledge, compatibility, communication, decision discipline.
