välgörenhetsinriktade

Välgörenhetsinriktade is a Swedish adjective meaning oriented toward charity or philanthropy. It describes individuals, organization, programs, or initiatives that prioritize giving, welfare, or aid to people in need rather than pursuing profit. The term is commonly used with nouns such as projekt, verksamhet or företag, for example "välgörenhetsinriktade projekt" or "ett välgörenhetsinriktat företag."

Applications include non-profit entities such as ideella föreningar and stiftelser whose activities focus on humanitarian aid, poverty reduction, health, education, or disaster relief. In a corporate context, the phrase can describe CSR-initiatives or business models that emphasize charitable impact alongside financial performance.

The nuance is that välgörenhetsinriktade efforts foreground altruistic aims and social welfare. It does not inherently condemn profitability in other activities, but signals that the primary objective of the described efforts is assistance rather than commercial gain. Etymology traces to välgörenhet (charity) and inriktad (directed).
