How does UHTf decide which locations to operate in?
UHTf considers applications from all over the world; in particular, disadvantaged regions and areas where it can make a difference to peoples’ lives in terms of food production, clean energy technologies and water.
UHTf will conduct ongoing surveys to ascertain the major needs in particular areas. Once selected, the project operates according to local protocols and laws.
I have an idea for starting a sustainable project. Can I apply to UHTf for funding?
No, unfortunately not. The UHTf is not a private lender or a venture capitalist organisation.
However, an existing NGO, CBO or Civil Society could partner with UHTf if there is an existing sustainable project that fits in the UHTf’s basic criteria. Or, the organisation can submit the project through their Government, and encourage a public private partnership with UHTf, as the funding agent.
It works directly with the governments, provinces, councils and registered bodies of the applicable areas to help bring about meaningful change in the fields of food and food production, clean energy, and water. It also develops close relationships in the fields of arts, culture and sport.
