Details about the Partnership Grants Stage 1 competition can be found on the .

Partnership Grants provide support for new and existing formal partnerships over four to seven years to advance research, knowledge mobilization and/or training in the social sciences and humanities. This is done through mutual co-operation and sharing of intellectual leadership, as well as through resources (cash and/or in-kind contributions). 

These grants are intended for large teams of postsecondary institutions and/or organizations of various types that work in formal collaboration. The quality of training, mentoring and employability plans for students and emerging scholars is an important part of the proposed initiative. The intellectual leadership and governance for a new or existing formal partnership can come from the research community and/or from partner organizations from the public, private and not-for-profit sectors.
