Together with other GACD member agencies, NHMRC is inviting investigators to submit applications for research associated with the implementation research proposals for primary and/or secondary prevention of cancer in Low- & Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) and/or in populations facing conditions of vulnerability in High-Income Countries (HICs).

The research must be conducted in LMIC and/or with Indigenous populations in HIC. Applications that address Indigenous health, and in particular applications that involve collaborations between Australia, Canada and/or New Zealand are encouraged.

GACD Cancer Prevention Funding Call 2019 Scope:

• Proposals must focus on implementation research for the primary and/or secondary prevention of cancer in LMICs and/or in populations facing conditions of vulnerability in HICs. Proposals must build on evidence-based interventions (including cost-effectiveness) for the respective population groups. Research activities should focus on their implementation in real-life settings. The proposed interventions should be gender-responsive. 
• The aim is to adapt and scale-up the implementation of these intervention(s) in accessible, affordable and equitable ways in order to improve the prevention and early diagnosis of cancer in real-life settings. Interventions should meet conditions and requirements of the local health and social system context and address any other contextual factors identified as possible barriers.
