Title
The Nestlé Foundation for the Study of Problems of Nutrition in the World
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. The Foundation was self-constituting and formed a council consisting of five internationally well-known Council Members. The Foundation is financially and operationally independent of the Nestlé Company. The offices of the Nestlé Foundation are in Lausanne, Switzerland.
The Nestlé Foundation initiates and supports research in human nutrition with public health relevance in IDA-eligible countries (IDA = International Development Association, see also http://www.worldbank.org). The results of the research projects should provide a basis for implementation which will lead to sustainable effects in the studied populations as well as in the population at large. The Foundation expects research proposals to be primarily the initiative of local researchers from the developing countries.
