Funding, News and Announcements

The goal of this Special Call is to mobilize Canadian-led research efforts in support of a more equitable, sustainable and resilient postpandemic reality. It will support a diverse portfolio of projects that directly address one or more of the research priorities outlined in the Roadmap, including any of the UN’s priorities and subpriorities, including but not limited to the “quick-win”, “best-buy” and “game-changer” priorities.

Value: Up to $250,000 per year (including indirect costs) for two years.

Eligibility:

• To reflect the interdisciplinary nature of the projects, proposals must be submitted by research teams composed of at least two individuals.
• All project teams must include at least one expert in social, economic, or socio-economic research and/or implementation science among the principal investigators (NPI or co-PI) to reflect the socio-economic framework and goals of the UN Roadmap (link above),
• The NPI must be considered an independent researcher at their primary affiliation,
• Applications must demonstrate how they respond to the priorities laid out in the Roadmap. Projects are required to be interdisciplinary.
• research teams are expected to include international members. The inclusion of team members from lower- middle or lower-income countries is strongly encouraged. Exceptions to this will be considered for projects that address a uniquely Canadian context and provide an appropriate justification.
