Research Projects - Call for Proposals

Next call in 2026

Visualization of the process for research projects

Members can apply for funding for their global health research projects

GLOHRA especially intends to support projects that

  • address transnational health issues, determinants, and solutions
  • contribute to the improvement of health and health equity worldwide
  • develop and implement groundbreaking ideas, test new models of cooperation and create new links between disciplines and communities
  • are interdisciplinary and link GLOHRA members from different institutions and cities
  • link scientific excellence with the domains of capacity building, science-based policy advice, teaching, implementation and/or clinical practice
  • promote active, eye-level partnerships with national and international partners, especially with partners from LMICs

The following types of projects can currently be funded:

  • Interdisciplinary pilot projects: Seed funding to validate approaches and prepare external funding applications
  • Cross-sector projects: Collaborative research projects between academic and non-academic partners
  • Global health postdoc fellowship

Projects will be selected via a two-stage review process. In stage one, applicants submit a brief project outline. In stage two, only top-scoring applicants will be invited to submit a full application, while the process concludes for others.

Check back at the end of year for further information about the 2026 call for proposals.
