Description
RIS will be offering support with application development for this opportunity. Prospective applicants are encouraged to contact Dr. Jennifer Stevens (v5js@mun.ca) or Dr. Amanda Crompton (ajcrompt@mun.ca) early during the development process to discuss the services available to them.
Alliance grants encourage university researchers to collaborate with partner organizations, which can be from the private, public or not-for-profit sectors. These grants support research projects led by strong, complementary, collaborative teams that will generate new knowledge and accelerate the application of research results to create benefits for Canada.
Alliance Society grants (formerly Alliance cost-sharing option 2) fund projects with societal impact as the main driver.
Research supported by Alliance Society grants will:
- – address a societal challenge that will result in new natural sciences and engineering knowledge and societal impact
- – bring together academic, partner organization and societal perspectives and skill sets throughout the collaboration
- – demonstrate how all interested individuals will learn about and use the products, services or policies that stem from this research
- – generate new knowledge and/or technology to address complex challenges
- – create economic, social and/or environmental benefits
- – contribute to Canada’s long-term competitiveness
- – support public policy
- – train new researchers in areas that are important to Canada and the partner organizations
- – draw on diverse perspectives and skill sets to accelerate the translation and application of research results
