Apply for a 2022 Seed Grant
Rutgers Global Health Institute awards Global Health Seed Grants to faculty conducting collaborative, interdisciplinary activities that address health inequities in New Jersey and around the world. With these grants, we aim to help faculty pursue new ideas and seed expanded research and funding.
Faculty from all Rutgers locations and academic disciplines are invited to apply for the 2022 grant cycle, which has a deadline of January 28. Five projects of up to $10,000 each will be awarded in either of the following two categories: 1) Education, Training, and Capacity Building or 2) Research. These projects must involve partnerships that directly impact the community experiencing inequity.

2) Instructions for the Global Health Seed Grants application process, specifically, are available here (PDF) and on the Rutgers Global Grants webpage. It is very important that applicants for the Global Health Seed Grants follow these specific instructions.

Funded Projects
Because global health places a priority on health equity, rather than on geographic location, we encourage submissions aimed at addressing health disparities anywhere in the world, including Rutgers’ surrounding communities.
