Call for Proposals: Healthy Eating Research (United States)

Multicultural Festivals and Events Program in Australia

Deadline: 03-Apr-2024

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) is seeking applications to advance health, equity, and wellbeing.

Healthy Eating Research supports this goal through improving diet quality and nutrition for all Americans, addressing nutrition disparities, and reducing food and nutrition insecurity.

The purpose of this call for proposals (CFP) is to generate evidence on supportive family policies and programs that have strong potential to impact equitable access to nutritious food in communities, nutrition security, diet quality, and improved nutrition and health outcomes. They are especially interested in strategies to improve health outcomes for families with lower incomes and/or racially and ethnically diverse populations experiencing higher rates of diet related chronic disease and/or health disparities. Findings will be used to guide and inform decision making about policy and system changes that can advance nutrition equity and improve health.

Through this CFP, they seek to learn what works (or not), why, and under what circumstances; who benefits the most from these policies and programs; and whether disparities are reduced. They are interested in solution-oriented research that focuses on policy, systems, and environmental (PSE) change at the national, state, local, and tribal levels. The PSE research strategies can focus on how to strengthen or build on existing policies or programs; evaluation of current policies or programs; or designing and pilot-testing new innovative programs that have policy-relevance. They are also interested in PSE research that is more developmental in nature but has potential for policy and systems impact in addressing nutrition inequities. Additionally, they are looking to support work that seeks to develop, validate, and evaluate new measures for assessing PSE changes and also nutrition and health equity measures that could be used to measure progress.
