Important changes will be made to the Insight Grants (IG) funding opportunity for the October 2015 competition:
- Elimination of the Notice of Intent (NOI)
- Submission of IG applications through the Research portal
- CCV required for applicants and co-applicants
- No CV required for collaborators
- New participant module
- Creation of a multidisciplinary committee within each research group when the number of applications makes it possible. The applicant will need to click the «Ìýmultidisciplinary evaluationÌý» box.
In addition, in an effort to address falling success rates in Insight Grants, SSHRC will implement the following measures:
- Reduction of the maximum grant to $400K
- Reduction of the annual maximum to $100K
- Clearer directives to adjudication committee members regarding their role in scrutinizing grant budgets
- Implementation of a committee budget envelope to encourage greater scrutiny.
More information will be forthcoming in the coming weeks; however, do not hesitate to contact SSHRC in the meantime should you have questions.
