Description: |
The objective of the Transformation stream is to support large-scale, Canadian-led interdisciplinary research projects that address a major challenge with the potential to realize real and lasting change. The challenge may be fundamental, leading to a scientific breakthrough, or applied, with a social, economic, environmental or health impact. Projects are expected to be world-leading, drawing on global research expertise, when relevant. Please review the guidelines closely, and work with Institutional Research Programs staff early to ensure all requirements are met. Due to the high level of interest in this program, Western Research will be making strategic decisions regarding institutional support of proposals. Only a select number of proposals deemed to be most closely aligned with the Transformation program goals and assessment criteria will be eligible to receive institutional support. |
