Opportunity
WDF is looking for sustainable approaches to diabetes care and primary prevention. Projects should focus on diabetes care, primary prevention and/or advocacy. See the World Diabetes Foundation’s intervention areas for details.
Projects should require minimum WDF funding for salaries and indirect costs. To enhance the prospects of sustainable outcomes, WDF expects your project to be aligned with the needs of targeted beneficiaries, local systems and priorities.
Project proposals need to be formulated and owned locally. Projects should provide focused, replicable and sustainable solutions with the potential to prevent diabetes and improve the lives of people with the disease.
Eligibility
Applicants should have a successful track record within diabetes care and prevention, or be aligned with locally anchored partners or networks with such a track record. We expect co-funding from applicants, stakeholders and/or other partners involved. We expect support from or involvement by local health authorities in the country or area in question.
