Workshop "Writing a Winning Grant Proposal"

If you are a researcher, have an idea or a hypothesis, and want to test it, but lack funds, this seminar is exactly for you. Our aim is to demonstrate how to prepare and write fundable grant proposals. At the seminar you will learn how to:
• find a fund;
• plan project stages;
• estimate project costs;
• present visual data;
• write a persuasive grant proposal narrative;
• pitch your proposal.
You will also have a chance to try a foundation board’s shoes and feel their concerns. We hope that the activities we offer will provide you not only with an opportunity to master technical skills, but also to interact with researchers from different fields so that you could share your experience and learn from others.
