The Reproductive Health Supplies Coalition has launched a new Innovation Fund that promises to translate into action new ideas and approaches for advancing global reproductive health supply security. Made possible by a generous grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Innovation Fund will provide over US$2 million over the next two years to member organizations in each of the Coalition’s three Working Groups.
The Innovation Fund is designed to support the Coalition’s work by complementing the resources many organizations already provide to Working Group activities and workstreams. Funding applications are reviewed three times a year by a panel approved by the Coalition’s Executive Committee. The next deadline for submission of applications to Working Group Leaders is February 1, 2010.
