THE DIV FUND IS AN EVIDENCE-DRIVEN OPEN INNOVATION FUND FOR GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT THAT FINDS AND SUPPORTS SOLUTIONS WITH THE POTENTIAL TO
COST-EFFECTIVELY IMPROVE
MILLIONS OF LIVES.
Through a year-round call for proposals, the Fund is open to anyone, anywhere, working in any sector. The Fund uses a tiered model that calibrates funding to evidence and results – supporting early pilots, rigorous testing of highly promising ideas, and large-scale expansion of the most cost-effective solutions. The DIV Fund focuses relentlessly on identifying how to deliver the greatest impact at scale.
With a 15-year track record of evidence-based innovation, the DIV Fund model has been shown to generate an estimated $39 in social value for every dollar invested. The newly established DIV Fund will carry development innovation forward with the aim of delivering meaningful impact to hundreds of millions of people around the world. Please join us as we enter this next chapter of high-impact development innovation.
