Grants and Contributions

.
• Stimulate the application of innovative theories, methods and approaches in research and knowledge translation that promote reciprocal learning within and between countries. This includes low-, middle- and/or high-income countries.
• Catalyze interdisciplinary and inter-sectoral collaborations between researchers and knowledge users that contribute to evidence-informed decision-making and use of knowledge by public health and other sectors.
• Support and strengthen the ability of the research community to respond with actionable evidence to emerging or re-emerging public health concerns that could impact the health and well-being of Canadians.
• Mentor the current and next generation of population and public health researchers (in particular post-doctoral fellows and early career researchers), practitioners and policy makers from a range of disciplines and sectors.

Project activities include: (1) identification of promising jobs, training programs to be reviewed or developed and skills to be sought according to the needs of the labour market; (2) review or development and implementation, in collaboration with employers, of training programs; (3) technical and financial support for those involved in professional integration, to employers and for the creation of green businesses; (4) provision of scholarships, learning kits and adequate facilities to learners.

The project is comprised of three components: foundations for learning; advancing gender equality through civil society; and advancing Canadian champions for development.

Although it is too early to predict the trajectory of this outbreak, there are concerns regarding the containment and prevention of the virus as it has spread from three rural health zones to the provincial capital of Mbandaka, a large urban centre with national and international transportation routes, increasing the risk of it spreading further within the DRC and neighbouring countries. Based on lessons learned from the 2014 West Africa Ebola outbreak, an early response is required to help mitigate and contain the spread.

Project activities include: (1) supporting governments in strengthening policy alignment in development and implementation across sectors towards food system goals; (2) involving unheard voices in the food system pathway development and implementation process to strengthen both the decisions and the buy-in for decisions made; (3) supporting low-income consumers accessing markets within their food systems; (4) aligning and increasing private sector finance for food system transformation; (5) connecting nutrition and environment agendas within food systems pathways; and (6) generating new evidence and data for stronger learning and accountability on food systems transformation.

The project's activities include: 1) online communication and awareness campaigns on the inclusion and engagement of women in the medinas, as well as strengthening the capacities of Tunisian municipalities to integrate women's needs into city governance ; 2) identifying local NGOs led by women to manage and animate rehabilitated spaces ; 3) creating products aimed at capturing, documenting, and sharing lessons learned, best practices, and impacts achieved during the first phase of the Femmedina Inclusive City Program, to demonstrate the importance of gender integration in public space planning and to enable the replication of the project's successes in other regions ; 4) training for municipal executives and staff on integrating a gender perspective into governance and urban planning, as well as knowledge and experience exchanges with other Tunisian cities and international city networks, including Canadian cities pioneering inclusive urban development.
