CIHR’s new Equity and Diversity Questionnaire for grant applicants
Sponsor
Canadian Institutes of Health Research
Description
As of May 15, 2018, all CIHR application participants must complete the questionnaire before an application can be submitted[1]. To explain further, this means that principal investigators and co-applicants need to complete the questionnaire—and, of course, so does the nominated principal investigator (NPI) prior to submitting their application. “Collaborators” are the only exception to this rule.
To avoid additional pressure around application deadlines this fall, CIHR is encouraging all potential applicants to complete the questionnaire during the summer break. It’s quick. It’s easy. And, it supports better research. To guide you through the process, CIHR has posted instructions and FAQs on their website[2]. If you have any additional questions, you can also get in touch with the Contact Centre at support@cihr-irsc.gc.ca[3].
