| The computational Thinking Initiative (CTI) is a K12 educational program that aims to teach computational thinking via volunteer-led programming experiences. Our mission is to empower learners and educators with the resources, training and technology they need to generate meaningful learning experiences and outcomes. CTI achieves this goal by providing Wolfram technology to organizations interested in teaching CTI with Wolfram Language. In 2021 through the CTI program, Wolfram donated technology, curriculum content and live instruction to the Cambodian Children's Fund. 3,000 students and teachers have access to our technology via the Cambodia Wolfram Stars program. | - | $0 |
| The Wolfram Physics Project (WPP) is an international basic research collaboration, based upon an "open science" philosophy, with open access to all scientific publications, software tools, working sessions and databases. The scientific vision of the WPP is grounded in a novel computational paradigm to fundamental physics, as well as both theoretical computer science and related areas of pure and applied mathematics. The WPP currently supports more than 40 short-term research affiliate positions, as well as 8 long-term research scientists positions, spanning around 25 different countries and representing around 40 different universities and other research institutes worldwide. The WPP works closely with university departments and major international research centers to provide academic support and supervision for academic research projects for graduate and undergraduate students (including high school seniors transitioning into university programs), postdoctoral fellows, early-career r | - | $0 |
| In 2021, the foundation accomplished the expansion of it's research affiliate program to provide research and educational opportunities to students from diverse educational backgrounds worldwide. In addition the foundation started a newly running Wolfram winter school. The work of the foundation also resulted in the production of significant volumes of scientific articles, technical documents, research blogs, video work logs, livestreams, interviews with the world's leading scientists, summer schools, study group sessions, colloquia. These open science activities are a core part of the WPP's philosophy, and are expected to continue into 2022 and beyond. | - | $0 |
