Description
President’s Grants from the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation fund educational projects that improve the education and training of future health professionals. The program emphasizes projects that promote diversity, equity, and belonging; foster collaboration among health professionals; and prepare learners for ethical challenges. Projects should engage learners directly (preferably in clinical learning environments) and demonstrate potential for impact beyond a single institution. Grants are intended for demonstration and evaluation projects rather than formal research.
