The Pure Earth Opportunity Fund has opened a new round of grants to support innovative projects that tackle the global challenge of lead exposure.
.
The fund is designed to strengthen understanding, prevention, and policy responses to lead poisoning by providing timely resources for short-term, high-impact initiatives. Its priority focus is on low- and middle-income countries where lead exposure continues to pose serious public health and environmental risks.
.
Projects eligible for support should concentrate on assessing and mitigating sources of lead exposure, with the exception of paint. Activities could include screening goods on the market for traces of lead, conducting surveys on potential exposure sources such as food items, or piloting new detection technologies. Proposals may also include raising awareness in high-risk communities, engaging with industries such as used lead-acid battery recycling facilities, or seeding national-level working groups to drive coordinated responses. Other areas of focus include research that fills critical knowledge gaps, policy analysis, and interventions that address obstacles to reducing lead exposure.
.
Benefits
- The fund will award grants ranging from USD $10,000 to $100,000 per project over a 12-month implementation period, with the possibility of renewal for an additional year.
- This flexible structure allows grantees to test approaches, generate evidence, and build momentum for longer-term interventions.
Eligibility:
- Eligible applicants include legally registered NGOs, civil society organizations, universities, and other non-profit entities.
- While the fund is open globally, preference will be given to organizations that are based in the countries or regions where the projects will take place, ensuring locally driven action.
