UPCOMING WEBINARS
Tips to Writing Competitive Grants
Grants are intensely competitive to nab. Often, those who write grants that don’t get funded do not consider the possibility it went south because it was a terrible read. Or poorly planned.
Hosted by the EMCA Subcommittee, this seminar offers tips on writing grants that are lovely to read, designed well and pitched to the right audience. The hope of the presenter is that a suggestion or two might tip your next grant over the line.
Thursday 6th November 2025, 6-7pm AEDT, 8-9pm NZDT
