Ember invites applications for this grant from researchers who are looking to make a difference.

Ember Research Grant 2: Lived Experience
Ember Korowai Takitini dreams of a New Zealand which responds better to mental health, addiction and intellectual disability. To do this we need to address social barriers such as self-stigma and discrimination which remain the biggest obstacles to recovery. We want to support researchers with lived experience of mental illness and addiction in their academic careers. We also want to show how people with lived experience are already contributing to research, and hopefully this grant can change the perception of lived experience in a university setting.
