La Fondation est une fondation américaine humaniste philanthropique créée en janvier 2000. Son but est d'apporter à la population mondiale des innovations en matière de santé et d'acquisition de connaissances. Elle s'efforce d'utiliser l'effet de levier en encourageant l'implication des personnes et personnalités politiques concernées. Certaines critiques dénoncent toutefois l'implication de la fondation dans le capital des sociétés responsables de divers problèmes sanitaires et humains. 2, record 1, French, - Bill%20%26%20Melinda%20Gates%20Foundation
