The Indigenous Health Research Fund is investing $160 million in Indigenous-led research to tackle health issues facing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
The 2026 grant opportunity will award $28.5 million through an open competitive process to an Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Community-Controlled program for health research projects.
A Working Group of the NHMRC-MRFF Indigenous Advisory Group, led by Professor Yvette Roe, has provided us with advice on the:
- design of the 2026 grant opportunity
- assessment scoring matrix.
We invite to you to:
- register for our webinar on 10 November 2025 to learn more about the grant opportunity
- provide feedback on the draft grant opportunity guidelines and assessment scoring matrix through our consultation hub.
Consultation closes on 28 November 2025.
