Government of Canada and partners invest $9 million to research policy solutions to transform our health systems
To prevent illness, treat disease, manage complex health conditions, and prepare for health emergencies, we need to strengthen our public and universal health care system. Innovative ways of doing research and integrating evidence into policy decisions can help ensure better health outcomes for people living in Canada – from coast to coast to coast.
Today, the Honourable Jean-Yves Duclos, Minister of Health, announced $9 million in research funding from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), the Fonds de recherche du Québec – Santé, the Ontario Ministry of Health, ResearchNB, and the Saskatchewan Health Research Foundation. With this investment, 60 research teams composed of researchers, policy makers, and people with lived experience, will conduct research to generate evidence-informed policy solutions to improve how health services are financed, organized, delivered, and governed. To maximize research impact, one team has been charged with summarizing and sharing key takeaways and solutions across all funded projects with health policy makers.
