Fejos Postdoctoral Fellowships (ethnographic film) provide up to $40,000 towards the completion of an ethnographic film that is based on anthropological research already accomplished by the applicant. The fellowship is awarded to early career scholars, who frequently lack the time and resources they need for film production. Applicants should be no more than ten years beyond their PhD, with allowances made for periods of caregiving, and have a doctorate in anthropology or an equivalent field. A maximum of four full Fejos Postdoctoral Fellowships are awarded annually.

Dissertation Fieldwork Grants are awarded to aid doctoral or thesis research. The program contributes to the Foundation's overall mission to support basic research in anthropology and to ensure that the discipline continues to be a source of vibrant and significant work that furthers our understanding of humanity's cultural and biological origins, development, and variation. The Foundation supports research that demonstrates a clear link to anthropological theory and debates, and promises to make a solid contribution to advancing these ideas. There is no preference for any methodology, research location, or subfield. The Foundation particularly welcomes proposals that employ a comparative perspective, can generate innovative approaches or ideas, and/or integrate two or more subfields.

The Canadian Bar Law for the Future Fund (LFFF) has grants available for innovative projects in the field of law.

Projects eligible for consideration must be of national interest and/or of benefit to the general public and must be in at least one of the following fields:

• Legal research
• Legal education
• Legislation and law reform
• Administration of justice

LFFF does not provide funding for capital projects, ongoing operating expenses, budget deficits, general fund drives, annual charitable appeals, scholarships, sabbaticals, conferences and seminars, nor applications relating exclusively to publication costs, equipment purchases or travel costs. No permanent commitments are made in support of a project, and no grants are made that would result in financial gain to an individual or organization. More detailed grant application information.

The objective of the Idea to Innovation (I2I) grants is to accelerate the pre-competitive development of promising technology originating from the university and college sector and promote its transfer to a new or established Canadian company. The I2I grants provide funding to college and university faculty members to support research and development projects with recognized technology transfer potential. This is achieved through defined phases by providing crucial assistance in the early stages of technology validation and market connection.

Under Phase I of the Canada Learning Bond (CLB) Grants and Contributions (Gs&Cs) Pilot Project, we funded 12 community-based projects. These projects delivered activities from March 2019 until March 2021.

Under Phase II, we will fund organizations to test supported enrolment models for CLB eligible children in the following populations:

• children from families with low incomes
• children of single parents
• children in care
• children and families living in rural or remote regions of Canada
• youth transitioning to post-secondary education

Models must take into account the barriers that exist in a COVID-19 environment.

The populations listed above typically have lower CLB take-up rates. A large proportion of youth transitioning to post-secondary education risk lacking opportunities to claim or build education savings through the CLB.

Supported enrolment models feature a series of incremental and personalized services and supports. These are tailored to the specific needs of individuals and families to help them access the CLB. These models have emerged as a promising approach to increasing take-up of the CLB and access to a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP).

The Skills Development Fund will support projects that will help relieve pandemic-induced barriers to hiring, training and retaining workers.

The ministry is seeking projects that will enable market-driven solutions and unlock the economic potential of skilled trades and broader workforce development initiatives to facilitate the province’s economic recovery.

In the future, human exploration of space is expected to extend beyond Low Earth Orbit (LEO) to the orbit and surface of the Moon, and ultimately to distant targets such as Mars. The resulting expeditions will require extended periods of exposure to weightlessness and space radiation, with confinement and isolation in the extreme environment of space, all of which are linked to substantial health and performance risks.

The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) is interested in human spaceflight and maintains a highly qualified Canadian astronaut corps capable of participating in space exploration missions. Also, in support of the vision and priorities of the new Space Strategy for Canada, the CSA aims to enable scientific opportunities and global partnerships, and to harness space to solve everyday challenges for Canadians.

To achieve this, the CSA's Health and Life Sciences (HLS) group conducts activities to generate knowledge in fields that sustain human space flights, mitigate health risks and develop countermeasures for those missions. Since time and resources on the International Space Station (ISS) are limited, CSA aims to broaden science opportunities in order to enhance and supplement flight investigations on the ISS and to optimize utilization of CSA ISS resource allocation.

The intent of this Announcement of Opportunity (AO) is to provide financial support to researchers at Canadian Universities and post-secondary institutions to conduct science investigations that will lead to a better understanding of human spaceflight risks while contributing to improve remote medicine and health benefits here on Earth.

The purpose of the Allied Health Kidney Research Grant is to encourage allied health professionals to pursue research relevant to the areas of nephrology and organ donation, including clinical, health services, social, cultural, environmental and population health research. To be eligible for this grant the principal applicant must be an allied health professional.

The grant can be awarded for up to two years. The project must have a clearly demonstrated relevance and outcome relevant to our mission, and the research must be carried out in Canada.

We recommend that researchers with biomedical or basic projects apply to the Kidney Health Research Grants Competition. Post-doctoral fellows are encouraged to apply to the KRESCENT program.

The Kidney Foundation offers a limited number of fellowships that fund full-time academic study and preparation for research at the doctoral level. The objective of this program is to promote and enhance the development of allied health investigators in Canada in the field of nephrology and / or organ donation. Fellowships are awarded for amounts up to $31,000/year and can be held in Canada or abroad. Note that for programs outside Canada the applicant must provide a statement indicating their intention to return to Canada.

Brain Canada is pleased to be partnering with Bell Let’s Talk to launch the Bell Let’s Talk-Brain Canada Mental Health Research Program, a new funding opportunity to support novel and transformative research that will accelerate the integration of emerging scientific knowledge into developing and improving mental health care. The ultimate goal is the development of innovative solutions to ensure effective, sustainable, and accessible mental health care for all Canadians.

The Bell Let’s Talk- Brain Canada Mental Health Research Program will award grants of up to $950,000 each, over three years, to four Canadian research teams. Interested teams are required to submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) by March 16, 2021. Following peer review, selected teams will be invited to proceed to the Full Application stage. The deadline for Full Applications is July 6, 2021.

Evidence clearly shows that increasing equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in research environments enhances excellence, innovation and creativity. Brain Canada and Bell Let’s Talk are committed to excellence through equity and encourage applicants of diverse backgrounds to apply to our funding opportunities.
