Research
RWJF funds an array of solicited and unsolicited projects.
Research grants account for roughly 20 percent of Foundation awards. Projects are quite diverse, ranging from small, quick-strike targeted research studies that inform the strategic direction of our grantmaking to more elaborate research-driven demonstrations. View an outline of our different research categories.
Both Solicited and Unsolicited Projects: The Foundation funds both unsolicited and solicited research and evaluation proposals. Some are part of RWJF’s organized national programs. Others receive funding on an ad hoc basis. View a list of programs. While the Foundation welcomes unsolicited research ideas, those not directly linked to our priorities will be funded only if they represent an unusual opportunity to advance our mission. RWJF reviews all projects for the quality of the research questions posed, the feasibility of the proposed design and the value of the grant given the proposed budget. RWJF often asks external experts to review projects as part of our proposal review process.
No Biomedical or International Research: The Foundation typically does not fund international research, nor does it support biomedical research.
