Our IPHCPR Network will provide funding opportunities and resources to support events and activities initiated by diverse teams grounded in Alberta. This section will also provide information on various available funding opportunities for Indigenous communities.

IPHCPR Network - Seed Grant Program

Seed Grant funds are offered as time limited (12 to 18 months) awards for aligned research-related activities.

This funding opportunity is intended to spark community driven research that facilitates Indigenous primary health care system innovation and transformation within Alberta.
