nrcan’s climate change adaptation program (2022–2027) helps to position canada’s regions and sectors to adapt to a changing climate. the program aims to:

1. support decision-makers in identifying and implementing adaptation actions;
2. enhance adaptation knowledge and skills among canada’s workforce; and
3. increase access to climate change adaptation tools and resources.

the program is soliciting proposals for cost-shared projects that will make important contributions to advancing adaptation progress in canada. up to $15 million in funding may be awarded through this call for proposals.

we welcome proposals for projects that address climate change adaptation on the following topics (see the applicant guide for more information):

• adaptation skills
• economics
• emerging issues
• natural resource sectors

projects requesting less than $150,000 of nrcan funding will not be considered through this call for proposals.

note: the government of canada may fund up to 60% of the total project costs, with the exception of projects led by indigenous organizations, governments or communities or by territorial governments, where nrcan may fund up to 100% of the total project costs.

the project grant program is expected to:

• support a diverse portfolio of health-related research and knowledge translation proposals at any stage, from discovery to application, including commercialization;
• promote relevant collaborations across disciplines, professions, and sectors; and
• contribute to the creation and use of health-related knowledge.

cihr's health research training strategy aims to equip research trainees so that they emerge from their training as scientific, professional, or organizational leaders within and beyond the health research enterprise. generating research leaders of tomorrow is a key objective for cihr.

fellowships provide support for highly qualified applicants in all areas of health research at the post-phd degree or post-health professional degree stages to add to their experience by engaging in health research either in canada or abroad.

the specific objectives of this funding opportunity are:

• to provide recognition and funding to academic health research trainees;
• to provide a reliable supply of highly skilled and qualified researchers.

the specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:

• generate new knowledge around the risk and protective factors for the full spectrum of problematic gambling and/or gaming;
• generate intervention-related evidence to address the needs of knowledge users in this space, including health care and/or health services policy and practice, as well as for regulatory aims;
• generate data and evidence to monitor and evaluate the potential benefits, harms, and unintended consequences of federal and/or provincial/territorial gambling and/or gaming regulations on health;
• facilitate consideration and application of new evidence to inform ongoing and future development of policies, practices and programs related to gambling and/or gaming;
• encourage approaches that consider different populations, particularly those from marginalized populations and/or the implications of the social determinants of health in problematic gambling and/or gaming.

bwf's career awards at the scientific interface (casi) provide $560,000 over five years to bridge advanced postdoctoral training and the first three years of faculty service. these awards are open to u.s. and canadian citizens, permanent residents, and temporary residents.

the burroughs wellcome fund launched the career awards at the scientific interface in 1999 to foster the early career development of researchers who are transitioning from training environments in the physical, mathematical, computational sciences and/or engineering into postdoctoral work in the biological sciences, and who are dedicated to pursuing a career in academic research.
