The Novo Nordisk Network for Healthy Populations is committed to supporting multi-disciplinary, collaborative teams to co-design initiatives and interventions in the Peel Region focused on reducing the burden of diabetes and chronic disease.
Catalyst Grants will be awarded to support evidence-informed programs, interventions, approaches, or evaluations that have shown promise in other contexts and align to the Network’s mission: To reduce social inequities in risk and burden of diabetes and other chronic diseases through better care, lower risk factors and healthier living environments.
Awards will be granted following rigorous peer review by a Selection Committee comprised of members from across the University of Toronto, the Novo Nordisk Network for Healthy Populations’ Advisory Committee and community members from across the Peel Region.
In advance of reviewing full applications, there will be a Letter of Intent (LOI) stage to vet potential applications for relevance, to foster potential collaboration of groups working on similar proposals and to facilitate connections to the wider Peel Region community and vital community organizations which must be received by September 1, 2022, 5:00 pm EDT.
A maximum award of $75,000 per year, up to 2 years, will be available for each successful grant.
