The Manitoba Centre for Health Policy carries out research on the health and well-being of Manitobans.
Our researchers carry out research using the Repository under contract to the Manitoba Government through Manitoba Health, Seniors and Active Living and the Healthy Child Committee of Cabinet to provide analyses to support policy development or service planning. These studies usually take 2-3 years to complete and we publish 4-5 Deliverables (reports) annually. For more information on MCHP Deliverables, please see our Publications and Presentations web page.
Centre researchers collaborate on large projects using the Repository. Current projects include:
Centre researchers also run their own individual research programs using the Repository. This includes University of Manitoba Faculty researchers and external researchers from across Canada and internationally.
