Dear colleagues,
Are you a researcher looking for funding?
Leprosy Research Initiative (LRI) is pleased to announce a call for proposals for funding commencing in 2023. LRI funds research with a focus on leprosy – including research applications combining leprosy with other neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) or other diseases that share cross-cutting issues with leprosy. Proposals addressing any of the five research priorities are eligible to apply for funding in this call. Researchers are invited to complete and submit a Letter of Intent (LoI) through an online application portal. Deadline to submit LoI: January 28th, 2022 at 23:59 CET. For more information on the call criteria and application procedure go to leprosyresearch.org/funding/apply-for-funding
Sasakawa Health Foundation has announced a call for grant proposals for projects starting in 2022. Sasakawa Health Foundation supports projects in three domains: tackling disease, fighting discrimination, or preserving history. Deadline for projects starting in April 2022: December 14, 2021 and for projects starting in September 2022: April 24, 2022. For more information click on the following link: SHF Call for Grant Proposals FY2022
Alice Cruz, the Special Rapporteur on the elimination of discrimination against persons affected by leprosy and their family members, invites you to collaborate. A thematic report on the right to the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health for persons affected by leprosy and their family members is being prepared and will be presented at the 50th session of the Human Rights Council in June 2022. People who have experienced leprosy are kindly asked to complete the questionnaire and share their input before 31 December 2021.
Enjoy reading the latest publications on leprosy and have a look at the coming events below. Feel free to contact me to receive full-text versions if these cannot be found through the Infolep portal. Also, I would be happy to assist you with literature searches on Infolep.
Warm regards,
Anniek Akerboom
