ACHIEVE is aimed to equip new researchers with the competencies necessary for closing the gap between measuring inner city health inequities and reducing them. The program has two main foci: Population Health and Health Services Interventions Research; and Community Engagement, Partnerships, and Knowledge Translation. Eligible applicants have completed a master's and a PhD within the past three years, or have a health professional degree. 3-5 fellows may be accepted for a term spanning September 2012 to August 2014 and must work onsite in Toronto.
