About this opportunity

The Food and Drug Administration is soliciting applications for the Health Equity Innovation Award: Enhance Equity Funding Opportunity under CFDA 93.103 (Food and Drug Administration Research), awarding through cooperative agreement; this is a forecast notice with no application deadline specified in the source.

The program aims to fund innovative research strengthening minority health and health equity objectives across three priority areas: advancing equity in clinical trials by supporting diversity enrollment efforts; equitable data efforts that increase data availability on diverse populations including ethnicity, race, age, disability, and geography; and equity of voices through improved understanding of diverse patient perspectives, preferences, and unmet needs.
