The Program supports innovative research projects whose focus is to investigate the relationship between language and access to health or social services.
Recipients meet to discuss their research and strategies for translating research to policy. Meetings are typically held in Montreal once per term, and a travel stipend may be offered to candidates who must travel to attend meetings.
Students who receive funding will be required to write an 8-10 page report for the Institute for Health and Social Policy (IHSP) outlining key findings and plans for sharing research with relevant stakeholders.
Research themes include but are not limited to the following:
• Economics of language in health care
• Cultural and linguistic competency
• Health or social inequalities
• Health geography and spatial statistics
• Retention of health professionals in remote or rural communities
• Second-language instruction for healthcare/social service professionals

The Language and Health: Facilitating Access to Health Care for Linguistic Minorities Student Program provides a unique opportunity to bring together the expertise of the HCALM-Network research community on access to health care and the IHSP’s focus on policy with the goal of supporting young researchers who hope to make a difference in their communities.
The research component of Dialogue Æ»¹ûÒùÔº brings together a network of researchers investigating health care access for linguistic minorities (HCALM Network). This research is part of a growing movement worldwide to understand patient-practitioner communication and its impact on health care delivery
