DESCRIPTION:The Nestlé Foundation for the Study of Problems of Nutrition 
 in the World was established in 1966 by a donation by the Nestlé Company 
 on the occasion of its centenary.\n \nThe Nestlé Foundation initiates an
 d supports research in human nutrition with public health relevance in low
 -income and lower middle-income countries.\n \nAt present the Foundation'
 s work is primarily concerned with human nutrition research issues dealing
  with:\n\n	maternal and child nutrition\, including breastfeeding and comp
 lementary feeding\,\n	macro- and micronutrient deficiencies and imbalances
 \,\n	interactions between infection and nutrition\, and\n	nutrition educat
 ion and health promotion.\n\n \nAll submitted grant projects must be acco
 mpanied by the ethical approval for the study by all involved institutions
 . If the ethical approval is not submitted the project can not be accepted
  for evaluation.\n \nWho can apply: The Foundation expects research propo
 sals to be primarily the initiative of local researchers from the developi
 ng countries. However the Foundation will be inclined to consider favorabl
 y those applications jointly made by scientists from developed countries w
 ith those from developing countries provided it is clear that the initiati
 ve will result in capacity building and human resource development in the 
 latter and the bulk of the budget (at least 75%) is spent in the developin
 g country.\n \nFunding and Duration: max. USD 300’000 for up to 36 mont
