Two Healthy Eating Research Calls for Proposals Released Healthy Eating Research, a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), supports research on environmental and policy strategies with strong potential to promote healthy eating among children to prevent childhood obesity, especially among low-income and racial/ethnic populations at highest risk for obesity. The program has issued two new calls for proposals. Healthy Eating Research: Building Evidence to Prevent Childhood Obesity Application Deadline: Feb. 24, 2009 The Healthy Eating Research Round 4 Call for Proposals focuses on studies of policy and environmental strategies in four areas: food pricing and economic approaches; food and beverage marketing; improving access to healthy foods in low-income communities; and evaluations of promising food-related policy and environmental strategies in settings where children and their families make food choices. More details and how to apply. Healthy Eating Research New Connections 2009 Application Deadline: Feb. 24, 2009 This funding opportunity is for New Connections grants awarded through the Healthy Eating Research program.
