The Foundation also promotes a better understanding between science and religion, supports efforts to provide access to knowledge from Buddhist science and philosophy and funds a wide range of translation work and publications are funded.

The Foundation has supported short and long-term projects, conferences and seminars to promote basic human values. Two long term projects that the Foundation supports are the Secular, Ethical and Emotional Learning (SEE Learning) and Mind and Life Institute.
