For more than a decade, Health Canada has been funding important and innovative research on linguistic issues in healthcare and social service provision, through HCALM (Health Care Access for Linguistic Minorities) Network 鈥� an interdisciplinary and interinstitutional community of researchers. This initiative constitutes the research capacity of the larger Dialogue 成人VR视频 project. Projects must primarily address issues relevant to English-speaking minorities.

HCALM regularly posts calls for research proposals that address interrelationships between language and access to health care and related social services. Research themes include but are not limited to:

• Innovation addressing language and health/social services (e.g., digital solutions, artificial intelligence, economic modelling)
• Cultural and linguistic competency
• Health or social inequalities/inequities
• Health geography and spatial statistics
• Retention of health/social professionals (in urban, remote, and/or rural communities)
• Second-language instruction for healthcare/social service professionals
• Linguistic minorities in professional education and practice
• Second language (L2) capacity creation and development among health/social professionals

Thematic priority area: For the 2020-2021 funding competition, 鈥淩educing language barriers to enhance access to health and social services while optimizing outcomes鈥� has been identified as a thematic priority area. The topic is broadly construed, and eligible proposals may consider it from theoretical, digital, methodological, evidence-informed perspectives.

Proposals must focus on access to health care for linguistic minorities in Quebec. Proposals aiming to address either digital innovation or the economics of unaddressed language barriers in Quebec's health and related social services systems are encouraged. Collaborative projects with academic institutions outside Quebec and Canada are eligible, provided that the Principal Investigator is based at a Quebec university, and that the funds are managed and disbursed by a Quebec university.

For the 2020-2021 competition, HCALM invites proposals (max. $30,000) for projects funded up to 18 months (October 2020 鈥� March 2022). Please note that the funding period overlaps 2 fiscal years, and that no carry overs are permitted from one fiscal year to another. The fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends on March 31. Disbursement is contingent upon the availability of funds through a contribution agreement between Health Canada and 成人VR视频.

Selection of research proposals will take place in early October. Funded applicants become members of the HCALM Network and will be referenced as such in all formal communications. Upon approval, successful applicants will receive a reporting package which specifies their team roles and responsibilities, payment schedule and reporting requirements based on Health Canada guidelines. A sub award agreement between 成人VR视频 and the researcher鈥檚 institution will follow.
