Leonard Blavatnik

The Blavatnik School of Government at the University of Oxford trains existing and future leaders in the skills and responsibilities of government and policy.

The School was made possible thanks to the Blavatnik Family Foundation’s gift of £75 million in 2010, among the most generous donations in the university’s history.   The School’s new building, designed by the architects Herzog & de Meuron, opened in 2015 and represents the value of openness, collaboration, and transparency key to the School’s overall mission to improve public policy.

Since 2010, the Foundation has provided additional support for the School and its students.
