Research grants

The innovative and impactful research projects we commission are grounded in addressing crucial community priorities to benefit health and wellbeing outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Each year, we invite applications for research project and/or seeding funding. Lowitja Institute grant rounds are influenced by themes and priorities that are identified at our biennial International Indigenous Health and Wellbeing Conference.

From 2024-2026, we partnered with Gilead Sciences to offer GLOWS Grant Program funding, relating to HIV and viral hepatitis inequities.
