1.  As this grant is to help GCHHS engage with another organisation as a Partner on an NHMRC, ARC, or similar grant application, all eligibility criteria of the relevant granting body must be met.

2.  Applicants will not be awarded more than one Partnership Engagement Grant per year.

3.  Currently funding is capped at $50,000 per application however, the amount awarded is dependent on the requirements requested of our organisation.

5.  At least one PI or AI from GCHHS must be an experienced researcher with a strong track record of having previously led multiple research projects to completion.
