Insamlingsstiftelsen Världsinfektionsfonden supports research and development on infectious diseases that disproportionately affect poor communities, with a strong emphasis on global health problems in low- and middle-income countries. Its giving appears especially focused on young researchers working on malaria, tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, diagnostics, and related translational science such as vaccines, biomarkers, and treatment improvement. The funder also seems to value field-based and collaborative projects that build knowledge about disease burden and improve prevention or care in resource-limited settings.
Annual, application-based research and travel grants for young researchers, with relatively small awards up to about 25,000 SEK. Funding appears to support specific project costs, travel, and early-career research activity rather than large institutional grants, and the program is deadline-driven (typically around 30 September).
