Description: |
The NCE Secretariat has announced a competition to fund networks under a new initiative within the NCE suite of programs ? the NCE-International Knowledge Translation Platforms (NCE-IKTP) initiative. The goal of the NCE-IKTP initiative is to support international collaborations between networks, centres, consortia and their partners to accelerate knowledge translation in areas of mutual strategic interest. Proposed networks must be driven to address key problems, challenges or opportunities of high strategic importance for the socio-economic benefit of partners and end users in Canada and abroad. Successful networks will be awarded up to $400,000 per year for four years, with the possibility of a 3-year renewal. The LOI provides information on the network?s proposed Platform in relation to the goals and objectives of the NCE-IKTP initiative. It will be used in the screening process to determine which applicants will be invited to submit a full application. Proposals will be evaluated according to the five NCE-IKTP initiative criteria, as well as the goals and objectives of the NCE-IKTP initiative. |

|
Application Details: |
The LOI should be submitted on behalf of the network by an academic researcher (i.e., ?the lead applicant?) who is eligible to receive funding from one of the three federal granting agencies, and by the proposed host institution.
Applications must be submitted to the NCE on-line electronic application system (https://excellence.nce-rce.gc.ca) as a single, searchable PDF file. (Instructions for creating a searchable PDF are included in Appendix B.) |
|
NOTE: All Letters of Intent and Full Applications must be processed through Research Development & Services for institutional approval. Requests for Institutional approvals should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. A ROLA Proposal (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean electronic approvals) is required for each submission. |
