Nexa Lighthouse Funding Program 2027 for Climate-Health Innovations

Brief Description

The Nexa Lighthouse Funding Program 2027 is now accepting proposals to support proven innovations across Asia and the Pacific that help local health actors turn climate-related health risk signals into immediate action. Co-led by Grand Challenges Canada (in partnership with the Government of Canada) and AVPN, alongside partners including the Bayer Foundation, India Health Fund, Novo Nordisk Foundation, Sanofi Foundation, and Temasek Foundation, the program targets solutions addressing mosquito-borne infections, extreme heat, and poor air quality. If your organization has developed effective tools in these areas, you can apply for Transition to Scale Investment opportunities ranging from $250,000 to $2,000,000 USD.
