Conservation, Food And Health Foundation
Category: International
DescriptionThe Foundation seeks to promote the conservation of natural resources, improve the production and distribution of food, and improve health in the developing world. Conservation grants help improve ecological and environmental conditions in the developing world; help conserve viable ecosystems and protect biological diversity in developing countries; and train local leaders in the conservation and protection of resources, with an emphasis on technical and scientific training. Food grants support focused efforts to improve access to food for consumption in developing countries. Areas of interest under this category include sustainable agricultural practices; fuel and resource problems related to food production and preparation in developing countries; innovative education and training interventions for small-scale food producers and farmers; and new approaches to control pests and diseases affecting important food crops of developing countries. Health grants support research, technical assistance, and training projects that improve public health through community-based efforts that address health promotion, disease prevention, family planning, and reproductive health; and increase the understanding and treatment of tropical diseases.
