Présentation du programme

The United Nations (UN) World Food Program’s (WFP) Innovation Accelerator Program identifies, supports, and scales creative new solutions to end global hunger and meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). WFP is introducing the Digital Health Innovation Accelerator Program, which is powered by WFP Innovation Accelerator, as well as the digilab, which is directed by the BMZ, KfW, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and the GIZ. In search of scalable digital solutions for the manufacture of global commodities, the United Nations WFP utilizes open standards and methodologies, with a focus on creating and sustaining pandemic preparedness skills in low- and middle-income countries. As the COVID-19 vaccination campaign continues around the world, we want to use these digital technologies to help speed the campaign’s impact and the rehabilitation of communities and health systems in low- and middle-income nations. Through this program, innovators, business start-ups, and solution providers are entitled to financial, technical, and methodological support. The World Food Program Innovation Accelerator has partnered with the international cream of the crop in order to launch its COVID-19 vaccination initiatives. **Application deadline:** November 21, 2021 ### Table of contents - [Benefits of the UN WFP Digital Innovation Accelerator Program](https://scholarshipsforafricans.com/united-nations-world-food-program-digital-innovation-accelerator-program/#h-benefits-of-the-un-wfp-digital-innovation-accelerator-program) - [Eligibility Criteria](https://scholarshipsforafricans.com/united-nations-world-food-program-digital-innovation-accelerator-program/#h-eligibility-criteria) - [How to Apply for the United Nations World Food Program](https://scholarshipsforafricans.com/united-nations-world-food-program-digital-innovation-accelerator-program/#h-how-to-apply-for-the-united-nations-world-food-program) * * * Stay in the loop!
