We are pleased to announce that the Global Alliance for Chronic Disease (GACD) has a new call for research proposal.

The new call focuses on taking a life course approach to reducing and preventing common non-communicable disease (NCD) risk factors in low- and middle- income countries (LMICs) and/or disadvantaged populations in high-income countries (HICs).

The GACD seeks to fund international, collaborative, multidisciplinary, and cross-cultural teams. While only qualified researchers can apply for this funding opportunity, collaboration with stakeholders such as community and patient groups, local policymakers, public and clinical health professionals, NGOs and others whose organisations or communities might benefit from the research, is essential. The GACD has created a new find-a-collaborator tool to facilitate partnerships.

Nine international funding agencies have confirmed being part of this call so far and other agencies may join on a rolling basis. Subscribers to this mailing list will receive an update when a new funding agency joins the call. Each funding agency participating in this call has specific requirements which are detailed in the agency-specific information on our website.

Unless otherwise noted, the application deadline is on 31 May 2022 at 11:59pm UTC.

You can visit our call webpage to find out more details about eligibility and how to apply.
