| Canadian Health Research Awards: |
The CIHR Partnership Award recipients receive a framed certificate of recognition. Their collaboration is highlighted on the CIHR website, in communication materials and in a commemoration at CIHR's corporate office. As well, the partnership is included as a "best practice" in the CIHR partnership casebook. CIHR provides travel and accommodation for the recipient and guest to attend the Canadian Health Research Awards - A Celebration of Excellence gala evening.
The CIHR Partnership Award emphasizes innovative cross-sectoral partnerships that promote excellence. Any partnership with one or more external partners (including private, voluntary or public-sector partners) that is synergistic and fosters better research and improved health for Canadians, more effective health services and products, and a strengthened Canadian health care system is eligible for nomination by the general public, CIHR's partner organizations, and CIHR institutes.
