We are pleased to announce that the INC has launched the 2022 Call for Promotion and Dissemination Projects.
The goal of this grant is to fund promotion and dissemination projects aimed at building consumer demand for nuts or dried fruits, whenever such projects are beyond the scope of the INC, i.e. projects that the INC cannot fit within its regular activity, for instance, due to language or geographic challenges.
Targeted projects:
The goal of this grant is to fund promotion and dissemination projects aimed at building consumer demand for nuts or dried fruits, whenever such projects are beyond the scope of the INC, i.e. projects that the INC cannot fit within its regular activity, for instance, due to language or geographic challenges.
Targeted projects:
- Activities that provide markets and consumers with information on the properties and qualities of nuts and dried fruits (e.g. marketing campaigns at points-of-sale, education campaigns at schools…)
- Market research and activities aimed at ensuring that buyers, consumers and health professionals know about nuts and dried fruits and their many positive features (e.g. participation in specialized events…)
Priorities:
- Promoting nuts and dried fruits use and consumption in markets where INC headquarters face barriers of entry, for instance, due to language or geographic challenges.
- Projects to be undertaken in developing countries.
- Multi-collaborative projects and cooperation with INC members and industry-related partners.
- Project proposals aimed at disseminating the outcomes of the scientific findings that come from INC-funded research or new scientific findings that have been published in high-impact scientific journals.
- Supporting the development of innovative new products and marketing initiatives.
