Implementation Seed Grants
The Hub developed a seed grant program to support physical activity implementation work at Western University and the wider London area. This funding support is intended to build capacity and strengthen partnerships between Western researchers and increase potential for successful implementation in community or clinical settings.
Grant Program Information
Two grants worth $5,000 each were awarded in 2023. This is one-time funding that is necessary to advance an implementation project. Researchers across all disciplines and Faculties at Western were invited to apply.
