In most cases we were unable to determine project duration, however the fact that most projects were established as part of research studies, potentially with limited funding and timeframe, is worrisome, as this limits opportunities to develop effective and lasting community empowerment processes.
A cluster-randomized trial was beyond the scope of the research funding and timeframe; the fact that the local urologists worked at various other hospitals across Sydney would, in any case, have made it difficult to avoid 'cross-contamination' of the intervention.
Add how your proposal will come into fruition and include stages involved, timeframe and funding.
Changes to institutional timeframes and funding processes could improve Indigenous and community-based research.
One of the reasons the current model is not working is because institutional timeframes and funding schedules undermine the aims of ethical guidelines and perpetuate the dominance of non-Indigenous control over the research agenda.
(S1) Local stakeholders acknowledged that one of the reasons the current model was not working was because institutional timeframes and funding schedules often undermined the opportunity for true partnerships and collaboration.
Multiple partners join in international consortia that operate under the limited timeframe of a specific funding period.
But the new context of North South collaborations often leads to complex arrangements, with multiple partners joining in international consortia that often have an ad hoc structure and operate under the limited timeframe of a specific funding period.
Whether a third case is possible in the current timeframe of the CEH (funded until 2011) is uncertain at this moment.
Similarly, in terms of timeframes, international responses separate funding streams and participant organisations into two distinct phases: emergency response and longer term recovery development (Pain and Levine 2012).
