Measures for Medical Prevention and Rehabilitation

The funding initiative supports non-profit organizations in Carinthia in implementing innovative measures for medical prevention and rehabilitation. The focus is on projects that promote risk minimization for individuals with increased health risks and ensure the reduction of secondary damage in already affected persons. Concepts from the fields of health, work, and social affairs that achieve sustainable impact based on robust evidence and ensure health equity are eligible for funding. As a grant measure, the program continuously offers non-profit organizations the opportunity to realize sustainable prevention and rehabilitation models benefiting vulnerable target groups. The thematic orientation aims to contribute in the long term to strengthening health literacy and improving the quality of life of those affected.

Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis in the form of subsidy requests or within the framework of existing funding agreements. A prerequisite is a comprehensible presentation of sustainability aspects, a detailed explanation of how health equity will be achieved, as well as proof of available scientific data on the effectiveness of the planned measures. Performance monitoring is contractually regulated depending on the funding mode and includes the submission of proof of use within defined deadlines. Projects with innovative approaches to reducing secondary damage or preventing chronic diseases have particularly good chances of receiving support through this grant funding.
