This funding opportunity focuses on two areas: 1) Comparative policy analyses across different provincial provincial/territorial health system contexts and related health outcomes and 2) comparative analysis of programmatic innovations in health care delivery that could scale to a system level.  Read the full funding opportunity.

Comparative Program and Policy Analysis Grants will be funded for up to two years with a maximum CIHR contribution of $62,500 per year.  Applicants must secure external partnership contributions from non-federal sources to match the CIHR contribution at a minimum 1:1 ratio.

Projects must involve at least one other provincial network; if you have not identified partners in other provinces we may be able to help.
