cfwh general research grant

connection grants are expected to respond to the objectives of the connection program.

these grants support events and outreach activities geared toward short-term, targeted knowledge mobilization initiatives. these events and activities represent opportunities to exchange knowledge and to engage with participants on research issues of value to them. events and outreach activities funded by a connection grant can often serve as a first step toward more comprehensive and longer-term projects.

connection grants support workshops, colloquiums, conferences, forums, summer institutes, or other events or outreach activities that facilitate:

• disciplinary and/or interdisciplinary exchanges in the social sciences and humanities;
• scholarly exchanges between those working in the social sciences and humanities and those working in other research fields;
• intersectoral exchanges between academic researchers in the social sciences and humanities and researchers and practitioners from the public, private and/or not-for-profit sectors; and/or
• international research collaboration and scholarly exchanges with researchers, 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and non-academic partners from other countries.

only a canadian institution that holds institutional eligibility can administer funds. however, the intellectual leadership and governance for connection grant activities can come from within the research community and/or from within the public, private and/or not-for-profit sectors.

sshrc welcomes applications involving indigenous research, as well as those involving research-creation.

insight development grants are expected to respond to the objectives of the insight program.

insight development grants support research in its initial stages. the grants enable the development of new research questions, as well as experimentation with new methods, theoretical approaches and/or ideas. funding is provided for short-term research development projects of up to two years that are proposed by individuals or teams.

insight development grants foster research in its early stages, but are not intended to support large-scale initiatives. long-term support for research is offered through sshrc’s insight grants.

proposed projects can involve, but are not limited to, the following types of research activities:

• case studies
• pilot initiatives
• critical analyses of existing research

projects can also involve national and international research collaboration, and the exploration of new ways of producing, structuring and mobilizing knowledge within and across disciplines and sectors.

funding is available for two distinct categories of scholars:

• emerging scholars who will develop new research questions and/or approaches. such projects may build on and further the applicant’s (or team’s) graduate work and/or represent a continuation of their overall research trajectory.
• established scholars who will explore new research questions and/or approaches that are distinct from the applicant’s previous/ongoing research. research projects should be clearly delimited and in the early stages of the research process. insight development grant funding is not intended to support ongoing research for established scholars.

sshrc welcomes applications involving indigenous research, as well as those involving research-creation.

who applies:

• canadian 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 at the college, undergraduate and graduate levels in canada;
• canadian faculty members or research staff at a post-secondary institution in canada; and
• canadian mid-career professionals who have a master’s or phd degree and have managerial, policy development or decision making responsibilities.

the ontario ministry of transportation (mto) is pleased to announce the call for proposals as part of the 2021-2022 road safety research partnership program (rsrpp). this program funds researchers in the broader public sector to conduct cutting-edge, road safety research that supports ontario’s efforts to improve road safety.

for the 2021-2022 competition, proposals must involve one of the following four priority areas:

there are three streams of projects that mto is interested in funding:

(a) new long-term projects, up to 15 months in duration (max. $180,000 over two years);

(b) new short-term projects, up to 3 months in duration (max. $50,000); and,

(c) ongoing projects, which are already in progress, but have components that address one of the priority areas (max. $50,000)

fsc is seeking to engage with canada’s research community to further develop the canadian evidence base on a myriad of issues that implicate the quality of work.  this invitation to submit an expression of intent aims to engage with canadian researchers from a variety of disciplines to submit their initial ideas and concepts for research that could address these gaps. 

the  japan society for the promotion of science (jsps) has established the jsps postdoctoral fellowships for foreign researchers. a limited number of promising early-career researchers are given the opportunity to conduct research in japanese universities and in designated research institutions and laboratories. nserc is responsible for recommending canadian nominees for jsps postdoctoral fellowships.
