Each year the Government awards up to $750,000 in funding for social policy-relevant research focused on further investigation of the information gathered through the Growing Up in New Zealand longitudinal study.

Growing Up in New Zealand (GUiNZ) collects information from 6,800 children and their families to build understanding of what it means to grow up in 21st Century New Zealand. The analysis of this information is helping shape government policies that better meet the needs of children and families in New Zealand.

The Children and Families Research Fund supports researchers to access GUiNZ data and to undertake research that informs the priority policy areas. It is open to applications from academics, government agencies, public and independent research organisations and non-government organisations.

Applications for the 2018/2019 funding round are open until Friday 31 August 2018.
