Funding, News and Announcements

Canada’s International Development Research Centre (IDRC) and the Canadian Institutes of Health Research’s Institute of Population and Public Health (CIHR-IPPH) are pleased to announce a new funding opportunity to identify and implement effective knowledge mobilization strategies to integrate the Canadian Coalition for Global Health Research’s (CCGHR) Principles for Global Health Research (known hereafter as the Principles) across the global health research ecosystem.

Specifically, the Call seeks to support research and knowledge mobilization activities that will rigorously:

1. take stock of awareness and application of the Principles within the Canadian GHR ecosystem (including researchers, universities and academic settings, research and policy partners in LMICs, NGOs and research funders);
2. identify and implement the best strategies and opportunities for encouraging the uptake and institutionalization of the Principles across the Canadian GHR ecosystem; and
3. create open-access tools and resources and provide guidance and support to facilitate and scale-up the use and institutionalization of the Principles in Canada and around the world.

As a result of the Call, one grant of up to CAD 600,000 will be issued by IDRC.

The project duration will not exceed 36 months, including all research activities and final reporting.

An internal selection process may be required for this call. Please contact ird@dal.ca as soon as possible if you are interested in applying.
