PROJECT AREAS

Project proposals should address one or more of Semel HCI’s five campaigns or address another topic related to health equity on campus

  • EatWell: Nutrition/diet/food
  • MoveWell: Physical activity/exercise
  • MindWell: Mind-brain health (psychological wellbeing/creative achievement/sleep)

UCLA is uniquely situated to make tangible change on campus and in the surrounding Los Angeles community. For this cycle, we will be specifically orienting our funding decisions towards projects that explicitly aim to address these matters by improving health equity as well as improving the health status of groups that have suffered from the racial, ethnic, and economic injustice that has permeated our national life.
