I hope you have been well! I’m reaching out to share that the University of Maryland Baltimore, School of Nursing’s Global Learning for Health Equity Network recently opened a call for proposals that might be of interest to you and your network.

With support from Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, we are awarding planning grants to help US communities find inspiration from low and middle income countries around the world for advancing equity in health, housing, education, and more.

Whether your organization already has a country it wants to learn from in mind or it’s just curious to explore global ideas that may advance health equity, this opportunity will provide grantees at any stage of their global learning journey with mentorship, resources and funding.

Potential applicants are invited to submit applications  the deadline is February 8, 2023. 

Would you be open to helping us amplify our call? We would love it if you could forward the link to our CFP to your network.

Opportunities: Global Research Nurses Pump Priming Awards 2021

The Global Research Nurses hub and The Global Health Network have made available £20,000 funds for small pump-priming grants of between £2000 and £10000 specifically for nursing and midwifery led research projects relevant to Low and Middle Income Countries

Nurses are always at the forefront of delivering care to patients and playing a key role in identifying and improving their quality of life. By getting involved in research, nurses can play a vital role in improving patient care since research is the only evidence-based method of deciding whether a new approach to care is better than current practice.

The way nurses are involved in research is two-fold. Pure nursing research looks at practice and ways to improve nursing activities, interventions or approaches to education that enhance professional practice. Examples of this could be looking at hospital-acquired infections, central line infections or pressure ulcers that patients get when lying down for long periods of time.

The other type of research is using their expertise as a nurse and participating with an intra-professional group of people around a patient population, an illness or an injury. An example of this is studying the way that a team works together to resuscitate a patient during an emergency.

We are delighted to announce that Global Research Nurses and The Global Health Network (TGHN) have made available funds for small pump-priming grants of between £2000 and £10000 specifically for nursing and midwifery led research relevant to LMICs. These may be used for three types of activities:

• To fund an exchange visit(s) to or from another area working on the same nursing and midwifery research project or with a view to developing a collaborative project
• To cover the costs of conducting a new small research project (typically proof-of-principle studies to facilitate further funding through other funders)
• To host a local, national or regional workshop/meeting about nursing/midwifery research with a view to subsequently developing a project
• The grant application should be for either a research project, travel or a workshop, not a mixture
