Description
1) Objective
The Conservation, Food and Health Foundation seeks to promote the conservation of natural resources, improve the production and distribution of food, and improve health in the developing world. They fund the following:
- (1) conservation – helping conserve viable ecosystems and protect biological diversity in developing countries and training local leaders in conservation and protection of resources, with an emphasis on technical and scientific training;
- (2) food – promoting specific sustainable agriculture practices with potential to advance science and practice in other countries and exploring innovative education and training interventions for small scale food producers and farmers; and
- (3) health – improving public health through community-based efforts that address health promotion, disease prevention, family planning, and reproductive health and increasing the understanding and treatment of tropical diseases.
2) Eligibility
The Foundation supports non-governmental organisations, civil society organisations, community-based organisations and universities and academic institutions. It favors projects that have their primary focus on research, training or technical assistance.
3) Location
