GLOBAL INNOVATION FUND
GIF is a collaboration between the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the Omidyar Network, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) and the Department for Foreign Affairs and Trade in Australia (DFAT). It was launched at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) meetings in 2014
Global Innovation Fund (GIF) provides funding at 3 stages: pilot, test, and scale—and is open to ideas from any sector and any country provided that the innovation targets those living on under $5, or preferably, under $2 a day.
If you have an idea to deliver development results more effectively, quicker, or cheaper than standard practice in your country, your province, your city, and your neighborhood, I encourage you to put together a solid application and submit it to GIF.
