Salud America! Call for Proposals Released |
Salud America! The RWJF Research Network to Prevent Obesity Among Latino Children
Application Deadline: Feb. 6, 2009
Salud America! is a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) that supports research on environmental and policy solutions to the epidemic of obesity among Latino children. The program also aims to develop a network of researchers whose findings will help identify the most promising obesity-prevention strategies specifically tailored for Latino communities.
The specific objectives of this call for proposals (CFP) are to:
- increase the skills and experience of researchers who are working to reduce and prevent obesity among Latino children; and
- identify the most promising policy-relevant strategies to reduce and prevent obesity among Latino children.
Investigators must propose a project in one of two general areas: 1) research that has strong potential to inform policy; or 2) the evaluation of an existing policy or program, its implementation or its impact. Both research and evaluation proposals must focus on one topic from the detailed lists included in the full CFP.
