We request $130,000 from NBIF to maintain and make improvements to GlobalChild (GCh): the world’s first comprehensive child rights monitoring platform, and to undertake two large-scale knowledge translation (KT) activities that will disseminate the findings from GCh’s first pilot, currently underway in New Brunswick (NB). The Strategic Opportunities Fund (SOF) project will occur from May 2023 to August 2024 and build upon the applicant’s current New Brunswick Innovation Foundation project, the NB-Pilot, which is a comprehensive review of the gaps and strengths in the provincial government’s capacity to fulfill children’s rights using the GCh platform. The SOF will sustain the important work being undertaken by funding the operation and maintenance of the GCh platform and also expand upon the work by funding platform improvements and facilitating innovative KT activities with NB stakeholders and children themselves. The SOF has the potential to connect to a significant pan-Canadian GCh implementation plan that the applicant has proposed through a recently submitted SSHRC Partnership Grant (PG) which would begin in September 2024. The 6 partners on the SOF represent the academic, government, and non-profit sectors and are either major NB child-serving organizations/institutions or data/technology hubs. The Matching Funds are a CIHR Project Grant and SSHRC Insight Grant with a combined value of $520,000. Together, this plan will sustain the GCh platform and facilitate extensive dissemination of the NB-Pilot findings to a range of audiences, with the aim of influencing the development of child- and family-friendly policies and programs in the province.
