Talk Details
While online application forms come with their own frustrations, sometimes writing a funding proposal from scratch is even harder. What should we include? How long should it be? How to structure it? We’ll talk you through our tried-and-tested approach for writing a funding proposal that does your work justice and stands out from the crowd.
Key learnings from this session:
1. How to structure a funding proposal when the funder doesn’t give you many guidelines.
2. The most important content to include in a funding proposal when space is limited.
3. How to tailor your funding proposals to make them stand out and show you’re a good match for the funder.
