New CHART Pilot Project Grant Program
Grant applications for this program are now closed.
The Emory Climate & Health Actionable Research and Translation (CHART) Center is launching a 2024-2025 Pilot Project Program in Climate and Health. Through this program, CHART will make available a total of $60,000 this year, with the aim of funding multiple grants of up to $20,000 in total costs.
The Pilot Project Program aims to build research capacity by providing funding for:
innovative pilot proposals that intend to generate new knowledge about the health risks associated with climate change in urban areas, particularly those related to heat exposure, and to translate this knowledge into action through equitable partnerships that enhance health.
- CHART pilot awards are open to all investigators working in climate and health inside the U.S. and in other countries.
- Applications must be focused on the role of the environment in human health and disease and align with the mission of NIEHS and the aims of CHART.
- Pilot project funds cannot be used to supplement research that has already been funded, regardless of the source.
