Together with the Ministry of Social Development, we have established the Māori Mental Health Research Emerging Leader Fellowship to support high-quality research and Māori health research capacity in Aotearoa, New Zealand. Applications for this Request for Proposals are open now and close on 23 July 2019 (1pm).

We have an important update for those applying for the Health Research Council’s 2020 Project funding, which opens on 10 June. The New Zealand Health Delivery (NZHD) investment stream (normally a component of this round) will be delayed and run out of cycle to the other investment streams. 

The HRC has delayed the release of this component to redesign how we invest in and assess health delivery research proposals.

The new-look NZHD funding will open towards the last quarter of 2019.

Please see the HRC's website for further information about this change.
