RWJF announces new E4A grant round

Evidence for Action: Investigator-Initiated Research to Build a Culture of Health

• Application deadline: Rolling

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) is funding studies through its Evidence for Action (E4A) National Program, now in its second year. We want to continue making grants through E4A, which is why we invite you to explore our Call for Proposals (CFP).

At RWJF, we are committed to building a national Culture of Health that enables all in our diverse society to lead healthier lives, now and for generations to come. A pillar for realizing that vision is evidence we need to discover programs, policies, practices, procedures, and partnerships that are good for our health so we can promote them.

What is Evidence for Action?

In a nutshell, Evidence for Action seeds information and learning so that the Culture of Health agenda can blossom. To do that, we are seeking researchers who can bring us fresh approaches, untapped datasets, or methodologies that may be commonplace in one realm but not in another. We are looking for expertise lodged not only in public health and health services, but also in many other disciplines, because we know there are skill sets and analytical techniques with which we are not familiar. We are particularly interested in proposals designed to stretch across fields like an econometric study of an educational initiative or a business analysis of a community-based social service.

Read the Evidence for Action Call for Proposals, and join our webinar on July 14.
