The Pallium Canada has launched a research grant to support the evaluation of palliative care education programs across Canada.
The Education Evaluation Research Grant is a vital part of Pallium’s mission to enhance palliative care through research and education. The Grant will support the development of fresh evidence related to palliative care educational programs in Canada and their impact on clinical practice, patient experience and the performance of health systems.
This initiative seeks to:
- Evaluate palliative care education offerings in additional provinces or territories — other than Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec — as part of the Canadian Atlas of Palliative Care. (Priority area)
Consideration will also be given to:
- Evaluations of the impact of primary palliative care course offerings (Pallium’s Learning Essential Approaches to Palliative Care (LEAP) courses or the national Palliative Care ECHO Project) in any care setting utilizing Pallium’s Education Evaluation Research Framework.
Funding Information
- A total of $15,000 over eighteen (18) months is available for this funding opportunity with proper budget justification.

- Applicants can be early career, mid-career, or senior career-level researchers or research teams that are engaged in education evaluation research.
