Centre for Research on Pandemic Preparedness and Health Emergencies - Investments

Research Centre’s investments

As announced on January 14, 2022, the Research Centre is receiving an ongoing $18.5 million in funding per year, $15M of which will support grants and awards, by the Government of Canada. This investment will support research and knowledge mobilization efforts to help Canada better prevent, prepare for, respond to, and recover from existing and future pandemics and other health emergencies.

While the Research Centre contributes to the response to the current COVID-19 pandemic, the focus of its activities goes well beyond COVID-19. The Research Centre addresses all health emergencies and pandemics by supporting high-quality research and mobilizing solid research evidence into better plans, policies, and practices. Its efforts will ensure Canada has an emergency-ready health research system that will protect the health of all Canadians.
