insight grants

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

insight grants support research excellence in the social sciences and humanities. funding is available to both emerging scholars and established scholars for research initiatives of two to five years.

applicants choose from one of two streams, depending on the amount of funding required. both streams will be adjudicated by the same committees, and will receive the same rigorous level of merit review. the deadlines and application process are identical for both; however, the targeted success rate for stream a is higher than for stream b.
