Dear Dougg, At what level of project ideas would you consider a proposal? Are you interested by concepts, tried out projects, implemented projects or fully developed with a budget or else? I have developed 2 project ideas; 1. Community HIV prevention and 2. Local rural development model that I would like to share with you. Greetings, Pr Chirume Mendo

Dear Pr Chirume Mendo, Thank you for your question! The Nestlé Prize in Creating Shared Value is looking to reward a project that has already been piloted or implemented on a small-scale and has already shown some results. The objective is to allow such a project to scale up and become available to more people thanks to the investment the Prize will make to the winner. I hope this answers your question. Do not hesitate to write to us at CSVPrize@nestle.com should you require further information. Barbara Wettstein Nestlé Prize in Creating Shared Value Team

I have developed 2 concept notes needing funding to be tried out. Please give advise as to where I can access some initial funding to get these ideas out of my chest.
