Nexa
Nexa is a climate and health initiative co-led by Grand Challenges Canada and the Science for Africa Foundation, in collaboration with a global consortium of partners and funders. The initiative supports locally led innovations that address the growing health impacts of climate change. The current call for proposals must directly address at least one of the following areas of focus:
- Climate-informed early warning and monitoring systems: Innovations that allow health actors to anticipate and respond to the impacts of heat, poor air quality, and/or changing mosquito ecology (resulting in the accelerated spread of malaria and dengue infections).
- Climate-responsive patient care delivery: Innovations that strengthen local response to mosquito-borne infection harms, and/or the health impacts of heat and poor air quality.
Information meeting: 6 July 2026 at 9 am
Call closure: 22 July 2026
