The Templeton Religion Trust has committed roughly $48k in funds to Professor Robin Fretwell Wilson's Tolerance Means Dialogue series, which Wilson says will allow for new events to be held in Fall of 2019. The Dialogues are public discussions designed to bring together students and thought leaders to find more constructive approaches to living together in a pluralistic society.

The mission of the Templeton Foundation is to "serve as a philanthropic catalyst for discoveries relating to the deepest and most perplexing questions facing humankind. We support research on subjects ranging from complexity, evolution, and emergence to creativity, forgiveness, and free will."
