2024 Health Delivery Research Activation Grant 1

Our Health Delivery Research Activation Grants provide support to establish health delivery research evidence needs or research opportunities, or develop research capacity, before applying for further health delivery funding. These grants are designed to incentivise readying and planning for research where resourcing to get started is not otherwise available. Examples of types of research activation activities include relationship development, priority setting, literature review, and skill/capacity building. Kaupapa Māori and Pacific health research approaches and methodologies are encouraged, as well as any other research or research-related activities that will clearly lead to further health delivery research. The maximum value of these grants is $30,000 for a maximum term of 18 months.
