Integrated Funding Scheme - Focused call

Health and Care Research Wales will be launching a new Integrated Funding Scheme focused call on “Communication around women’s health”. This topic is a high priority for Welsh Government and communication around women’s health issues is a key area.

• The Women's Health Plan for Wales - NHS Wales Executive
• Women’s health plan for Wales launched to close the gender health gap | GOV.WALES
• Women's Health in Wales - A Discovery Report

Applicants should complete the application form and comply with the application guidance. The call will be assessed via a two-stage application process. Stage 1 applications will need to make the case that the requirements laid out in the focused call brief are addressed and briefly outline the methodological approach to address the research question. Following assessment, shortlisted applicants will be invited to submit a full Stage 2 application which will be assessed by the Health and Care Research Wales Funding Board for its scientific quality. The composition and expertise of Panels and Funding Boards will reflect the specified topic of the focused call.

The detailed focused call brief will be available in spring 2025. Call documents are in development and will be shared when they are ready.
