Grant Acquisition – How to Produce a Winning Proposal on 18th October 2018 in Hamburg
18 October 2018 - 18 October 2018
Germany
The workshop illustrates the process by the example of Horizon 2020, the European Union’s Framework Programme for Research & Innovation, which is one of the major areas of EU spending. It offers a multitude of opportunities, but also poses many challenges. The skills acquired are transferable to other types of programmes supporting research. It is therefore particularly valuable for those starting out their research career.
The goal of this workshop is to provide practical training on how to approach the preparation of a proposal effectively, particularly focusing on collaborative projects.
The workshop will cover in a compact, but nevertheless practical form the background knowledge needed to prepare a good proposal and to acquire research funding. The goal is to provide participants with a good understanding of:
Strategic aspects:
• an introduction to funding opportunities and to Horizon 2020
• what information, documents are essential and helpful
• the structure of proposals and how to organise the proposal preparation to make the process efficient
• how to produce a convincing case, particularly on impact
• financing and budgeting
• success factors and typical failures
The workshop will consist of lectures, discussions and exercises. Exercises will focus on the writing of the proposal, e.g. structuring the proposal, preparing templates to organise the writing process for individual proposers as well as for collaborative proposals, and conceiving a convincing chapter on impact and outreach.
The workshop is conceived for researchers wishing to learn about the principles of developing multidisciplinary collaborative research projects.
