The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) is committed to dismantling structural racism and eliminating barriers to health equity by working alongside communities, practitioners, and institutions.<\/p>\n<p>The purpose of this CFP is to support organizations in pursuing action-oriented projects that leverage learning from outside the U.S. to create a more durable and equitable health knowledge system in the U.S. These efforts will advance health equity, justice, and wellbeing through community-driven knowledge generation, preservation, and narrative. Together, these actions lay the foundation for a more inclusive, equitable, and resilient health knowledge system in times of crisis and beyond.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Awards<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Up to 15 awards will be funded. Awards will be up to $500,000 each. Request only what is necessary to allow the organisers to fund as many recipients as possible. They expect larger awards to correspond with more distributed funding (e.g., multiple people\u2019s salaries or multiple activities).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Eligibility<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>All organizations based in the U.S. or its territories are eligible to apply. Submissions from teams that include both U.S. and international members are eligible, but all projects must focus on improving health equity in the U.S. Projects that solely focus on improving health equity outside the U.S. are ineligible for funding. International applicants are eligible to apply, and if selected, will be recommended for an award from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Global Ideas Fund, a donor-advised fund of Charities Aid Foundation of America (CAF America).<\/li>\n<li>They welcome applications from organizations with principal investigators\/project directors\/leads of all personal and professional backgrounds.<\/li>\n<li>They especially encourage applications from project director(s) and teams having backgrounds and life experiences that are under increased threats in the current political climate, including Indigenous, Black, Latino, and other persons of color; LGBTQ+ community members; people whose country of origin is not the U.S.; and other historically marginalized groups.<\/li>\n<li>RWJF will not select, exclude, or prioritize applicants based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, gender, or other protected characteristics.<\/li>\n<li>For this funding opportunity, they are prioritizing organizations that are new to RWJF. Organizations are not eligible if they have been awarded any funds from RWJF since January 1, 2021. Your organization is not eligible if it has received any awards from RWJF, whether directly or through a fiscal sponsor, as a grant, program contract, or other type of award since January 1, 2021. If your organization served as a fiscal sponsor since January 1, 2021, please see the program-specific FAQs regarding your eligibility.<\/li>\n<li>Biomedical, clinical, and bench science projects, as well as medicinal remedies, are not eligible for this funding opportunity.<\/li>\n<li>If necessary, the applicant organization may utilize the services of a fiscal sponsor to support the project\u2019s financial management, grants management, and reporting activities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Application<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The application deadline is April 13, 2026 8:00 p.m. GMT+1.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/my.rwjf.org\/login.do?applyCfpId=3504&amp;cfp=3504\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Click here to apply<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For more information, visit <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rwjf.org\/en\/grants\/active-funding-opportunities\/2026\/learning-from-abroad-to-reimagine-health-knowledge-systems-for-equity-and-wellbeing.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RWJF\u00a0Call for Proposals<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[vc_column_text css=\"\"] Deadline: April 13, 2026 The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF)\u00a0Call for Proposals 2026 are now open.
