This interactive, two-hour workshop will discuss how to develop a funding proposal for research grants allocated for putting innovative project ideas into action. The workshop will walk through the Why, What, How, and So What? elements of writing a successful proposal. During this workshop, the KIX EAP team will share tips for writing a background and justification for your proposal (the Why), developing a project description and theory of change (the What), determining methods and resources needed (the How), and finally, measuring and sharing impact (the So What?).
The workshop will be conducted in English with simultaneous interpretation into Russian and Arabic. During the workshop there will be ample opportunity for questions and sharing experiences.
