Medical and health grantmakers are being asked to do more than fund impactful programs. As public systems face uncertainty and community needs remain high, lasting improvement increasingly depends on whether funders can support coordination, shared measurement, and learning across partners — without compromising trust.
Drawing on research and real-world examples, this whitepaper introduces research-practice partnerships (RPPs) as a practical framework for collaborative impact and outlines how equity must be embedded in the mechanics of grantmaking rather than treated as a parallel initiative.
Inside, you’ll find:
- A clear view of the current medical grantmaking landscape and the structural forces shaping outcomes
- An analysis of why coordination — not technology alone — is the core modernization challenge
- A practical framework for understanding research-practice partnerships (RPPs) in action
- A lifecycle-based approach to operationalizing equity mechanics in grantmaking
