CANFAR’s mission is to end the HIV epidemic in Canada by funding innovative research, launching national awareness programs and building national partnerships.

In this Innovation Research Grant competition, the grants awarded will be $40,000 for one year. The research can include all areas of HIV prevention, treatment, testing, care, and cure.

Over the past three decades, CANFAR has invested more than $26 million and awarded more than 450 grants to HIV/AIDS research projects that have led to tremendous breakthroughs in HIV prevention, testing, access to treatment, stigma, and the search for a cure.

In addition, CANFAR annually reaches over 1.5 million Canadian youth and educators through its national youth HIV awareness programs.
