Larsen Lam ICONIQ Impact Award: Mobilizing $24.25M to Empower Refugee-Led Organizations

ICONIQ Impact announced the Larsen Lam ICONIQ Impact Award, a $24.25 million grant competition funding innovative solutions for refugee wellbeing, with the primary recipient Resourcing Refugee Leadership Initiative (RRLI) receiving $10 million. The award aims to shift power and resources to refugee-led organizations (RLOs), which collectively reach over one million refugees globally. The funding highlights a critical gap in the humanitarian system where only 0.05% of the $30 billion annual humanitarian funding reaches RLOs.
