The Centre for Rural Remote and Tropical Health Systems aims to support activities that strengthen collaboration, increase external engagement, and position the Centre for larger-scale funding and impact.
For the 2026 small grants program, funding could be requested in one of two categories:
- Seed Grant Scheme: to conduct a pilot project or seed research in support of a larger, collaborative research proposal.
- Stakeholder Engagement Scheme: to collaborate with external stakeholders to advance CRRTHS research, translation, policy impact, or partnerships.
The Small Grants have been awarded to six projects. Selection was made following three independent reviews for each application and the successful applicants represented a mix of seed research and engagement grants.
