Pathways) is a CIHR Signature Initiative with an overall goal to develop a better understanding of how to design, implement and scale up population health interventions that will improve First Nations, Inuit and Métis health in four exemplar areas: Suicide Prevention, Diabetes/Obesity, Tuberculosis, and Oral Health.
This Pathways Implementation Research Teams (IRTs) Funding Opportunity will provide funding for Component 1 Implementation Research Teams, which are team development grants to support research teams in building relationships with First Nations, Inuit, and/or Métis communities and identifying promising or effective, multi-faceted population health interventions in any of the 4 exemplar areas that are based in Indigenous practices, and scalable for inclusion in later components. The funding for this Component is intended to support teams as they work towards preparing an application to Component 2 and/or Component 3.
The total amount available for this funding opportunity is $800,000, enough to fund approximately 8 grants. The maximum amount per grant is $100,000 for up to 18 months.
Note: CIHR will be launching a separate Funding Opportunity for Component 2 applications across the exemplar areas at a later date. A Component 3 Funding Opportunity is planned for a later date.
Look for more details about this funding opportunity on the CIHR website in the coming weeks.
