About the programme

Colansa funds advocacy initiatives that use existing evidence to get a public policy adopted, implemented or enforced through non-legislative routes. Projects must be national in scope, carried out by a single organisation in a single eligible country, and connect with at least one priority area: front-of-pack labelling, fiscal measures, food and beverage advertising regulation, or access to healthy food. Up to two projects are funded in this line and projects run for 18 months.

Duration: 18 months

Eligibility

  • Legally constituted civil society or community-based organisation, research centre or academic institution
  • Legally constituted in one of the 14 eligible countries
  • Legal entity at least six months old, with proof of operation in the eligible country
  • Institutional mission aligned with healthy and sustainable food systems
  • Proven advocacy experience on healthy food environments (civil society and community organisations)
