The Winnipeg Foundation Martha Donovan
Women's Leadership Development Award 

Applications are now open!

 

The Winnipeg Foundation Martha Donovan Fund provides leadership development opportunities for women (including trans women and non-binary people) in the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Manitoba. Over the next two years, $50,000 will be made available annually. 

If you're a woman who is a student, post-doc or resident, or a full- or part-time academic faculty member, you can apply until Monday, June 1, 2026.

How to apply

Complete the
online application form.

In addition to the application, you must supply a curriculum vitae and a letter of support from the faculty member’s department head/college dean or the student’s/post-doctoral trainee’s program director or supervisor, including acknowledgement of potential absences, as required, to participate in the course/program of choice.

Potential for funding

The maximum award will be $10,000 for Faculty members and $5000 for students, and may be less. Applicants must develop their proposed budgets with these figures in mind and provide a detailed budget justification.

*Postdoctoral fellows fall under the student category and are only eligible for the $5,000 maximum award.

Support is provided for the direct costs of academic leadership development opportunities. All items must be essential to the completion of this training. Expenses will not be eligible for support if these are incurred prior to the fund start date. There should be no overlap with existing funds – The Winnipeg Foundation Martha Donovan Leadership Fund is not intended for top-up of existing funding requests.

More details on eligibility requirements and terms of reference are available on the
