Partnership Engage Grants are expected to respond to the objectives of the Insight program and the Connection program. Please note that Partnership Engage Grants cannot respond exclusively to the objectives of the Connection program.
These grants provide short-term and timely support for partnered
research activities that will inform decision-making at a single partner
organization from the public, private or not-for-profit sector. The
small-scale, stakeholder-driven partnerships supported through
Partnership Engage Grants are meant to respond to immediate needs and
time constraints facing organizations in non-academic sectors. In
addressing an organization-specific need, challenge and/or opportunity,
these partnerships let non-academic organizations and postsecondary
researchers access each other’s unique knowledge, expertise and
capabilities on topics of mutual interest.
SSHRC invites all applicants to review Imagining Canada’s Future’s
16 future global challenges and to consider addressing one or more of
these areas in their research proposal. This is not an evaluation
criterion for merit review and does not offer additional or dedicated
research funds for this funding opportunity.
Value and Duration: Partnership Engage Grants are valued at $7,000 to $25,000 for one year.
Eligibility
Subject matter
Most SSHRC
funding is awarded through open competitions. Proposals may involve any
disciplines, thematic areas, approaches or subject areas eligible for SSHRC funding. Please see Subject Matter Eligibility for more information.
Projects whose primary objective is curriculum development are not eligible for funding under this funding opportunity.
Applicants
Applications may be submitted by an individual researcher or a team of researchers (consisting of one applicant and one or more co-applicants and/or collaborators).
Applicants must be affiliated with an eligible Canadian postsecondary institution
at the time of application. Researchers who maintain an affiliation
with a Canadian postsecondary institution, but whose primary affiliation
is with a non-Canadian postsecondary institution, are not eligible for applicant status.
Applicants who have received a SSHRC grant of any type but have failed to submit an end of grant report by the deadline specified in their Notice of Award are not eligible to apply for another SSHRC grant until they have submitted the report.
Postdoctoral researchers are eligible to be applicants if they have formally established an affiliation with an eligible institution at the time of application, and maintain such an affiliation for the duration of the grant period.
Students are not eligible for applicant or co-applicant status on a Partnership Engage Grant.
