Community-Led Research Program
The Community-Led Research Program supports research efforts that build respectful, reciprocal relationships between Indigenous and Indigenous-linked communities and the four Transforming Climate Action partner institutions—Dalhousie University, Université du Québec à Rimouski, Université Laval, and Memorial University of Newfoundland.
Funding is offered through two tiers, with Tier 1 focused on supporting early-stage relationship-building activities, including travel, events, and the development of new research connections.
- Awards of up to $25,000 per project at Université du Québec à Rimouski, Université Laval, and Memorial University
- Awards of up to $50,000 per project at Dalhousie University
- Projects must include at least one TCA partner institution and should be completed within 12 months
- Projects that involve collaboration between multiple communities and institutions are encouraged
The call for Tier 1 submissions will remain open until all funds have been fully allocated. Visit our website to learn more and apply.
