The Fund is seeking proposals that address this primary research question:
How can social media be best utilized to better understand and increase vaccination confidence and uptake?
We highly encourage applicants - especially from interdisciplinary teams and cross-sectoral partnerships - to develop truly transformative proposals that address critical research gaps with creative solutions. We also invite applicants to develop their own ideas that align with the Fund's primary research question and principles.
Understanding how social media1 can contribute to vaccine uptake is this Fund's north star. Recognizing the complexity of this challenge, and that vaccination confidence is the pathway to vaccine uptake, this Fund is interested in pursuing new and transformative approaches to addressing the immediate challenges of increasing vaccination confidence and uptake for COVID-19 as well as routine immunizations. As such, this Fund is intentionally less specific about prescribing research questions or methodological agendas. We instead want to encourage exciting and innovative approaches that meet the stated criteria. We also are interested in supporting proposals that focus on historically marginalized or excluded communities globally.
