Grants and Contributions

Through the Institute's programs, researchers address a wide range of health concerns related to infection and immunity including disease mechanisms, disease prevention and treatment, and health promotion through public policy.

Research must incorporate culturally appropriate approaches to address:
• Prevention, treatment and self-management of T2D, including but not limited to, peer-support groups, mentorship programs, healthy lifestyle and behaviour modification programs and knowledge mobilization;
• Policy and program interventions using a social determinants of health framework that decrease the risks of the development and progression of T2D, including but not limited to, access to healthy food and equitable access to physical activity opportunities; and
• Community-based, family-based, and inter-generational approaches and programs in relation to prevention of T2D.

The ICS Program is designed to foster community development by providing grants and awards to individuals and organizations for the purposes of: - Enabling research and knowledge translation activities where the circumstances fall outside of CIHR's current suite of funding programs. - Supporting individuals and organizations whose goals are consistent with CIHR and its Institutes' vision, mandate and strategic directions. The ICS Program is not intended to support the direct cost of research (e.g., pilot projects, feasibility studies or operating grants), principal and co-investigator salaries or research equipment

For the Fall 2023 CIHR Fellowship Priority Announcements, the CIHR Institute of Aging (CIHR-IA) will fund up to three fellowship applications relevant to one of the three main research areas as described in our new Strategic Plan 2023-2028 Reframing Aging Empowering Older Adults:

Strategic Area A: Implement Prevention Strategies and Promote Health and Wellbeing in Aging
Strategic Area B: Adapt Health and Care Systems to better address the Needs of Older Adults
Strategic Area C: Improve the Lived and Living Experiences and Quality of Care in the Later Years

The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:
• Enable STBBI researchers to generate preliminary observations, data or knowledge necessary to pursue longer-term research funding in STBBI research;
• Support original, high quality STBBI projects and provide researchers the opportunity to pursue high risk health research questions which have the potential to generate novel, innovative and high impact results; and
• Stimulate innovation in STBBI research by promoting cross-disciplinary research collaborations between STBBI researchers and experts in other relevant fields in Canada.

The Secretariat on Responsible Conduct of Research (SRCR), in conjunction with the Panel on Research Ethics (PRE) and the Panel on Responsible Conduct of Research (PRCR), administer a grant program to support events that complement their mandate to promote research ethics and the responsible conduct of research.

The College and Community Innovation Program (CCI) Program aims to increase innovation at the community and/or regional level by enabling Canadian colleges to increase their capacity to work with local companies, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
