In May 2017, a call was issued for projects bearing on the P2P’s national research themes. Support was offered for initial research projects leading to larger, cross-regional projects for which outside funding would be sought. The research was required to have a policy or practice component, and eligibility was restricted to projects led by P2P collaborators or partners. The selection committee comprised Herbert Schuetze, James Baker, Christophe Traisnel, Zenaida Ravanera, Jean McRae, and Victoria Esses. The seven funded proposals are listed here.

In June 2015, a call was issued for projects bearing on the P2P’s national research themes. Support was offered for initial research projects leading to larger, cross-regional projects for which outside funding would be sought. The research was required to have a policy or practice component, and eligibility was restricted to projects led by P2P collaborators or partners. The results of the competition are now available. Both the number and quality of submissions exceeded expectation. Twenty-nine proposals were received and 7 are being funded, one more than originally planned owing to the excellence of the submissions. The selection committee comprised Chedly Belkhodja, Meyer Burstein, Victoria Esses, Jean McRae and Reza Shahbazi. The seven successful proposals funded are listed here.
We would like to thank the many research teams that responded to our call for proposals. We regret that we were unable to fund more submissions but hope to hear from you again in the future. The successful launch of our initiative encourages us to make the call for proposals for our National Themes an annual event. Five proposals were accepted by our evaluation panel comprising Victoria Esses, Michael Haan, Julie Drolet, and Meyer Burstein. The five successful proposals funded are listed here.
