The Implementation Research Platform (IRP), of which TDR is a partner, is pleased to announce a call for proposals to support implementation research that contributes to the scale-up of effective health interventions related to MDGs 4, 5 and 6, and is looking for strategies in one of the following three priority areas to: i) Facilitate the integration of services to result in improved health outcomes and greater efficiencies; ii) Improve the performance of health workers to deliver quality services; iii) Engage communities to increase awareness of, access to, and utilization of health services, and provision of appropriate services at the community level.   The budget for the 2-year research study cannot exceed US$ 350 000.  Additional funding from other sources should be sought if the budget is anticipated to exceed this amount.  The deadline for submission of proposals is 15 September 2012.  Interested applicants should pre-register online by 20 August 2012.  For full details and submission guidelines, please go to:  http://www.implementationresearchplatform.org/call-for-proposals/
