Preparing a grant application
A framework for matching your project to a funder's stated priorities.
1. Match the call, not the funder
Read the specific call's objectives and eligible costs. Funders often run several programmes with different rules.
2. Budget honestly
Use only eligible cost categories and check whether match funding or co-financing is required.
3. Evidence and outcomes
State measurable outcomes and how you will report them; most assessors score against published criteria.
Checklist
- ☐ Call objectives matched
- ☐ Eligible costs only
- ☐ Match funding confirmed
- ☐ Outcomes measurable
- ☐ Deadline and portal confirmed
General guidance only, not legal or financial advice. Always follow the issuer's published rules.
