Purpose of Recognition

Recognizing SHRF Connections initiative shines a spotlight on individuals who have contributed significantly to Saskatchewan's vibrant research community by volunteering their time and sharing their invaluable experiences and expertise, even though research is not part of their official role.

Eligible nominees will have the opportunity to be recognized and celebrated at the Annual Santé Awards. These community leaders, advocates, people with lived experience, frontline workers, and other key contributors are essential in enriching the research process with crucial insights, support, and real-world perspectives, leading to more relevant and impactful outcomes.

  • Community-based organizations with a mandate to conduct research are not eligible.

Nomination Form

Researchers can submit nominations through a simple and accessible online form, which you can find below, starting at the end of August and running until October 15th.
