CRVS Applied Research and Training (CART), Cohort 2 is opening for applications!
TAGS

The CRVS applied research training (CART) initiative focuses on enhancing CRVS systems through supporting applied research on strategies, interventions, and tools. This project aims to strengthen the capacity of CRVS practitioners to conduct high quality CRVS related research. Participants will be assigned a topic expert mentor, join online and face to face training, submit deliverables and receive support  you through every step of the way: from your initial idea through to submitting a paper and getting your evidence used to improve CRVS programmes. Participants are expected to dedicate significant time to conduct their research. 

The first cohort from Asia, Pacific and Africa participated in a face to face workshop in Dubai, United Arab Emirates during 26 to 30 August 2024. 

With the first cohort successfully underway, the CART initiative is opening for applications for the second cohort. The application period is 2 September - 25 October 2024. Applicants will be notified of the outcome of their application by mid December 2024. 

Please circulate among your networks or apply yourself! If you think you might like to be a mentor, please get in touch! Additional information is available on the CART website.
