RESEARCH FUNDING POLICY

NDRP Research Funding Policy

 

The purpose of the Research Funding Policy is to provide transparent information about how the NDRP governs, supports and monitors its research funding program. This Policy is to enable us to oversee the quality of research we fund, including research outputs, so it is of high quality and effective for use in policy, practice and programs. ​

​

Our approach to research funding 

 

The core business of the NDRP is to fund collaborative and inclusive disability research, conducted within a partnership framework and aligned to our principles. Many policy or practice questions are complex, nuanced and require a multidisciplinary approach to provide practical, useful solutions. Therefore, we aim to fund and actively support a cohesive and collaborative program of research and to strengthen the capacity for disability inclusive research.
