Partnering for grant success

Succeed in grant-seeking in the US and Europe

Stop sending dozens of grant proposals that keep getting rejected! How do you mobilise grant resources internationally? How can you enable your funding partners to approach other donors?

This workshop will tackle these fundamental questions; ones that grant-seekers and grant-makers face all too regularly in a world where money is getting tighter and competition for limited grant dollars is ever-increasing. Following both the Grants Plus and Convert with Joy frameworks – proven for successful grant-seeking – you will be guided participants through how to be grant-ready: how to identify, cultivate, and nurture relationships with grant-makers and how to write grant proposals that don’t get rejected.

The session will balance teaching, exchange, and group work to inspire you to change your fundraising habits using a new approaches to grant proposal writing within proven frameworks.
