About Partnership Engage Grants Program in Canada

Partnership Engage Grants are expected to respond to the objectives of the Research Partnerships program.

These grants provide short-term and timely support for partnered research activities that will inform decision-making at a single partner organization from the public, private or not-for-profit sector. The small-scale, stakeholder-driven partnerships supported through Partnership Engage Grants are meant to respond to immediate needs and time constraints facing organizations in non-academic sectors. In addressing an organization-specific need, challenge and/or opportunity, these partnerships let non-academic organizations and postsecondary researchers access each other’s unique knowledge, expertise and capabilities on topics of mutual interest.

• Sponsor Organisation: Government of Canada

Benefits of Partnership Engage Grants Program in Canada

• Partnership Engage Grants are valued at $7,000 to $25,000 for one year.

Partnership Engage Grants Program in Canada Requirements

• Applications can be submitted by an individual researcher or a team of researchers (consisting of one applicant and one or more co-applicants and/or collaborators).
• Applicants must be affiliated with a Canadian postsecondary institution that holds institutional eligibility at the time of application. Researchers who maintain an affiliation with a Canadian postsecondary institution, but whose primary affiliation is with a non-Canadian postsecondary institution, are not eligible for applicant status.
• Applicants who have received a SSHRC grant of any type but have failed to submit an achievement report by the deadline specified in their notice of award are not eligible to apply for another SSHRC grant until they have submitted the report.
• Postdoctoral researchers are eligible to be applicants if they have formally established an affiliation with an eligible institution at the time of application, and maintain such an affiliation for the duration of the grant period. Before applying, postdoctoral researchers must confirm with their institution’s research grants officer that the institution can administer the funding if awarded.

• Students are not eligible for applicant or co-applicant status on a Partnership Engage Grant.

• Federal scientists who are affiliated with a Canadian postsecondary institution must demonstrate that their proposed research or research-related activity is not related to either the mandate of their employer or the normal duties for which they receive payment from that employer.

   

Application Date and Process

Applicants must complete the application form in accordance with the accompanying application instructions. Applications must be submitted electronically by an authorized research grants officer, or equivalent, from the applicant’s institution.

Applicants needing help while preparing their application should communicate with SSHRC well in advance of the application deadline.

Once the 8 p.m. (eastern) application deadline has passed, the application server will be offline for two business days and unable to accept applications. After this time, the server will come back online, ready to accept applications for the next competition deadline. During the hiatus, the server will retain the information for applications still in progress.
