The NCE Secretariat has announced a competition to fund networks under a new initiative within the NCE suite of programs – the NCE-International Knowledge Translation Platforms (NCE-IKTP) initiative. The goal of the NCE-IKTP initiative is to support international collaborations between networks, centres, consortia and their partners to accelerate knowledge translation in areas of mutual strategic interest. Proposed networks must be driven to address key problems, challenges or opportunities of high strategic importance for the socio-economic benefit of partners and end users in Canada and abroad. Successful networks will be awarded up to $400,000 per year for four years, with the possibility of a 3-year renewal.
A Letter of Intent (LOI), the first step in the competition process, must be submitted via the NCE’s secure submission site by May 2, 2016.
