2025 NHMRC-GACD: Strengthening Health Systems

Overview

Together with other Global Alliance for Chronic Diseases (GACD) Associate Members, NHMRC is inviting investigators to submit applications with a focus on implementation research addressing strategies for strengthening of health systems to improve equity in high quality care and health outcomes, and reduce the prevalence and impact of non-communicable diseases, in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and/or in underserved populations experiencing health disparities such as Indigenous Populations in high-income countries (HICs). For NHMRC funding support in HICs, research must focus on Australian Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander communities. The objective of the 2025 NHMRC-GACD grant opportunity is to fund implementation research that will generate evidence about strategies to strengthen health systems in LMICs and/or for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander communities in Australia.
