Gates Foundation Discovery Center
Learn more about the Gates Foundation and how they partner with others to tackle the world’s toughest challenges. Explore the foundation’s history, values, and vision for a more equitable world.
The tour will also highlight the foundation’s work in the area of sanitation. Everyone deserves safe sanitation, but more than three billion people worldwide don’t have access. Even those who do have access often use systems with challenges around sustainability and reliability. Find out what the future holds for safe sanitation systems around the globe.
Located next to the global headquarters of the Gates Foundation in Seattle, the Gates Foundation Discovery Center is a free public space open to all. Through our exhibitions, we share stories and data from our partners, grantees, and foundation employees who are working tirelessly to fight poverty, disease, and inequity around the world.
