Catalyst Grant: Moving Upstream: Structural Determinants of Health
How to Apply:
The overall aim of this funding opportunity is to support robust research to analyze, monitor, contextualize and/or evaluate how structural or “system-level” drivers (e.g. legislation and policies) can create, maintain or exacerbate health (in)equity across populations, regions, contexts and settings.
The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are:
- To increase the evidence base on the structural determinants of health inequities in Canada.
- To support a range of identifiable and/or novel interdisciplinary research designs, theories, methods, and approaches to understand the structural determinants of health and their impacts on health (in)equities.
- To foster connections and collaboration between researchers and stakeholders across a broad range of disciplines, including (but not limited to) population and public health researchers, public health professionals, people with lived experience, communities, knowledge keepers, knowledge-users, and decision-makers to translate knowledge into policy and practice. This form of knowledge synthesis will be supported through a convening event that all funded applicants will attend during the funding period.
