Overview

beyondblue, the national depression and anxiety initiative, is a national, independent, not-for-profit organisation working to address issues associated with depression, anxiety and related disorders in Australia.

The beyondblue National Priority Driven Research (NPDR) program is a national grant funding program that aims to fund clinical and applied research in depression and/or anxiety. This stream aims to specifically support research into Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander social and emotional wellbeing (eg, mental health promotion, strategies to address anxiety and/or depression, strategies to encourage help seeking). The stream is based on the following core principles and applications must adhere to them:

• capacity building - supporting career and skill development for Aboriginal and Torres Strait
  Islander students, researchers and community members
• research driven by community - supporting research that responds to the needs of Aboriginal
  and Torres Strait Islander people and communities
• partnerships with Indigenous communities - research that strengthens existing, and creates
  new, partnerships to foster collaborative research into Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander
  people social and emotional wellbeing
• implementation - a focus on research that can be transferred into practice to make a positive
  contribution to closing the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people.
