New Research Programme in Stigma and Global Health: Fogarty
|
The Fogarty International Center (FIC) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has announced a new research program to support international collaborations to study stigma and global health.
FIC, with 11 NIH partners, the Health Research Services Administration, and the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) with the International Development Research Centre, has issued a Request for Applications for the Stigma and Global Health Research Program. Stigma is a process that occurs when perceived differences between an individual or group and the rest of society result in an unfavorable labeling of that person or group. The consequences of stigma can be disapproval, rejection, exclusion, and ultimately discrimination.
Sponsor: Fogarty International Center and eleven NIH partners.
Deadline: Applications for the Stigma and Global Health Research Program are due by
November 14, 2002, and the deadline for receipt of Letters of Intent is October 14, 2002.
