The inaugural Seed Grant will bring together community based organizations, students, early career faculty members at U of T, and other university collaborators, to undertake projects that lead to scalable and sustainable social enterprises that promote greater equity in health.
This seed grant will focus on Power, Politics and Privilege, and on projects that would develop in the Greater Toronto Area.
It is anticipated that Seed Grants from $5,000 up to $25,000 will be awarded to support projects that seek to create and spread health through social innovations that address the underlying, sometimes invisible elements of power, politics and privilege that drive health inequity, elevating the chances of some to experience good health while severely limiting the chances of others to survive and thrive.
