Archived Grant Opportunity View - GO5151

A TCR is a one-time solicitation for grant applications to address a specific health issue. A TCR specifies the scope and objectives of the research to be proposed, application requirements and procedures, and the review criteria to be applied in the evaluation of applications submitted in response to the TCR.

The overarching objective of the 2021 Hearing Health TCR is to support research that develops an evidence base for future policies, interventions and initiatives to support the Hearing Services program. This may include, but is not limited to, research that:

• determines best practice population-based screening and intervention options
•  identifies suitable methods to measure accurately the prevalence and severity of hearing loss in the Australian community.

The 2021 Hearing Health TCR’s intended outcomes will:

• Inform development and delivery of hearing health services in the future
• Improve the evidence base of strategies that encourage and promote behaviours that preserve and protect hearing health, especially in vulnerable populations.

Assure providers and consumers that the hearing program support service are based on the best available evidence to adapt to client needs and technology changes.

Applications will only be accepted from NHMRC approved Administering Institutions. A list of NHMRC approved Administering Institutions is available at:
