The Wisconsin Idea is expansive and inspires mutually beneficial collaborations that address diverse topics, from soil health in West Africa to mapping the Indigenous histories of the land where the university was built.
Eight projects and 10 seed projects receiving seed grants from the Ira and Ineva Reilly Baldwin Wisconsin Idea Endowment show the range of how UW–Madison faculty, staff and students can collaborate with community members to co-create and share knowledge and solutions that will benefit and enrich the lives of the people of Wisconsin, the nation and the world.
The competitive grant program honors the legacy of Ineva Reilly Baldwin and Ira Baldwin. Ineva spent her professional career in university administration, holding a number of assistant and associate dean positions, championing student well-being, and raising the profile of the arts and humanities. She lived nearly a century and in that time left an enduring mark as a philanthropist and civic leader. Ira was a longtime UW teacher, researcher and administrator, and served as dean of the Graduate School and the College of Agriculture and as vice president for academic affairs. The Baldwin endowment, at the time it was gifted to the university, was one of the largest gifts ever received by UW–Madison.
