The Endowment Fund
The Roullier Endowment Fund encourages sustainable agriculture by supporting research programmes, providing training assistance for young people and working in partnership with the world of agriculture.
Our missions
Created in 2016 on the initiative of Daniel Roullier, the Roullier Endowment Fund has a public interest mission to study, promote and foster sustainable agriculture in France and internationally.
To ensure food security for the world's population in 2050 while preserving natural resources for future generations, agriculture will have to undergo a profound transition in its production systems. Its educational, scientific and solidarity-based mission helps to revive the tangible link between farmers and society, enabling us to face the changes of tomorrow together.
By incorporating the UN Sustainable Development Goals related to agriculture into the selection of each of its research projects and the events it organises, the Roullier Endowment Fund contributes to the transition to sustainable agricultural systems.

The Mineralium
The Roullier Endowment Fund houses, within its building in Saint-Malo, The Mineralium, an exhibition dedicated to minerals and their roles in nutrition. This educational space also serves as a meeting place and forum for discussion among stakeholders in sustainable agriculture.
Sponsorship Projects
In addition to the exhibition, the Endowment Fund supports projects promoting sustainable agriculture in France and internationally. This philanthropic commitment translates into material or skills-based support for associations working daily with farmers. Beyond their charitable mission, the supported projects aim to promote agricultural professions and disseminate best practices in sustainable agriculture.
OUR KEY DATES
