BC Environmental and Occupational Health Research Network

The CIHR Partnership Award, established in 2002, recognizes partnerships between organizations that exemplify excellence by bringing health research communities together to create innovative approaches to research, develop research agendas that are responsive to the health needs of Canadians and/or accelerate the translation of knowledge for the benefit of Canadians. The emphasis of the award is on innovative cross-sectoral partnerships that promote excellence.
Recipient(s) will receive a $25,000 award in the form of a one-year research grant, to be used by the awardee(s) to advance the research or knowledge translation activities of the partnership. Winners agree to be highlighted on the CIHR website, in communication materials and included in a commemoration of all CIHR award winners at CIHR’s corporate office. In addition, the partnership may be written up as a "best practice" for the CIHR partnership casebook.
