Call for proposals -- the International Union Against Tuberculosis & Lung Disease funding opportunity
 
8 June 2005 ­ Paris
 
The International Union Against Tuberculosis & Lung Disease now calls for proposals for fidelis, a grant programme to support 
innovative tuberculosis control activities. 
 
fidelis funds projects that will improve the detection and successful treatment of new sputum smear positive (NSP) tuberculo-
sis patients, especially among people with limited access to health services. 
 
fidelis are particularly interested in receiving high quality proposals with: 
a) a lower cost per weighted treatment success;
 
b) a larger number of additional cases cured;
 
c) clear evidence of complementarity to existing health services and TB control efforts and for which the probability of sustain-
ability within the existing system is judged to be highest; 
 
d) the highest numbers of additional treatment success among people with limited access to health services; 
 
e) convincing evidence that the innovations developed will be taken up into routine practice within the community.
 
The grant size ranges from US$ 150,000 to US$ 250,000. The deadline for receipt of applications is 1 August 2005.
