Applied Research Program

DVA’s Applied Research Program (ARP) commissions research that contributes to the development of improved policies and service delivery, and/or enables the Department to better identify the health and wellbeing needs of the veteran community.

DVA has been undertaking a scan of past and current research, including national and international studies and considering our current and future clients needs. As a result we are reorienting our research program to meet our future strategic needs.

As a consequence the ARP funding round will not open on 1 February as originally scheduled. More information will be available on this website once final design decisions have been taken.
