Description
This funding opportunity is one of several planned as part of the Transition in Care (TiC) Initiative. The focus of the Best and Wise Practices Grants is to support groups of researchers and knowledge users to identify best and wise practices in the areas of transitions in care. The grants will provide development funds to groups that require additional evidence gathering and/or the building of relevant relationships and partnerships to address challenges, gaps and/or barriers related to improving care transitions and mitigating negative outcomes resulting from poor transitions. This competition will support planning and information-sharing activities, partnership development as well as evidence gathering to facilitate the collection of data and building of relevant research capacity in preparation for the launch of future TiC funding opportunities.
Recognizing that equity is an integral part of a sustainable health research ecosystem, this funding opportunity is committed to supporting Indigenous Health Research and specific sex and gender minorities*. Funding is available to support projects that are relevant to individuals who identify as transgender and individuals living with an intersex condition.
*For purposes of this funding opportunity, sex and gender minorities are defined as individuals living with an intersex condition and individuals who identify as transgender.
