Abstract

We present the motivation, aims and preliminary result from the Swift/VLT legacy survey on gamma-ray burst host galaxies. This survey will produce a homogeneous and well-understood host sample covering more than 95% of the lookback time to the Big Bang, and allow us to characterize their fundamental properties.
