The International Nut and Dried Fruit Council (INC) has launched its Annual Call for Research Projects (300,000 euros) and Annual Call for Promotion and Dissemination Projects to fund research into the health benefits of nuts and dried fruits and spread the message around the globe.
The grants are aimed at helping improve our understanding of the benefits of eating nuts and dried fruits and promoting their consumption, especially in developing countries. The invite is open to public and private institutions, as well as not-for-profit organizations.
Besides the grants program, INC carries out "Nuts for a Healthier World" Global Dissemination Project, a solidarity campaign that aims to promote the health benefits of each nut and dried fruit. This project includes one main video and 16 videos with interviews featuring people from different parts of the world.
