<p dir="ltr" style="margin:10px 0;padding:0;color:#808080;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:16px;line-height:150%;text-align:left">Greetings from the World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA)</p>
<p dir="ltr" style="margin:10px 0;padding:0;color:#808080;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:16px;line-height:150%;text-align:left">We are pleased to inform you that WABA is offering Warm Chain of support for breastfeeding seed grants that will catalyse activities to protect, promote and support the links of the warm chain. This is in line with the Warm Chain of Support campaign that strives to link different actors by coordinating efforts at all levels to provide a continuum of care, from conception to the postpartum period and up to two years of age. WABA and its’ partners aim to explore and develop a conceptual framework that can help to ensure that effective support is coordinated, integrated, and scaled up in health services and the community to achieve sustained high breastfeeding rates around the world.</p>
<p dir="ltr" style="margin:10px 0;padding:0;color:#808080;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:16px;line-height:150%;text-align:left">Applications with projects that focus on either starting a project or strengthening an existing effort to create an enabling environment for mother to continue breastfeed will be considered. The amount for a seed grant will range between USD 1000–USD 3000 per project. We welcome projects with a range of supportive interventions and best practice models that can be adapted widely to support a breastfeeding mother. </p>
