Policy Research Grants

One time support of up to $80,000 is available for policy research conducted
within a two-year period. Proposals that meet the following objectives will
be considered:

guide policy decisions in tobacco control.
- To increase the involvement of policy decision-makers at all
levels in the research process.
A fast-track process is also available for proposals that are of an
especially timely nature.
Idea Grants
