National Native Health Research Training Initiative
The purpose of this cooperative agreement is to fund a national membership organization of American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) scientists and/or researchers and students to further the IHS research program objectives with expanded outreach and education efforts for AI/AN students, faculty, and health
professionals.
This announcement requests applications to propose activities including, but not limited to, an annual national training opportunity in health research methods and findings of importance to AI/AN people and communities.
Other activities may also be considered in coordination with the main annual event.
This is an important annual event that will bring together health researchers and key stakeholders to share recent research findings, learn new research methodologies and best practices in service delivery, and learn about human research protections and opportunities for research funding.
The annual research training event will be the primary event for AI/AN researchers and students to present their findings and obtain feedback from other researchers as well as Tribal health professionals.
Students also have the opportunity to select and begin working with new mentors.
This event will be held by a national membership organization of AI/AN scientists and/or researchers in collaboration with Indian Health Service (IHS) in facilitating a forum designed to improve the health research capacity of AI/AN Tribes and researchers.
The organization and continuity of annual national training events is vital to the morale of the health research and larger health professional field working for the benefit of the Tribes and other (including urban) AI/AN people.

Keeping Half the Profits Beats Non-profits for Social Impact
Melbourne social enterprise Who Gives A Crap sold nearly 3 million rolls of toilet paper in 2014/15 and gave half the proceeds to WaterAid Australia, but co-founder Simon Griffiths says the donation would have been less had the startup adopted a non-profit model when it launched two years ago.
