Proposal Writing for the Wenner-Gren Foundation: Applying for a Dissertation Fieldwork or a Post-PhD Research Grant

In this second workshop,  join the Foundation’s president, Danilyn Rutherford, and her colleagues at the Foundation for a workshop designed for applicants working towards the Dissertation Fieldwork Grant and the Post-PhD Research Grant. We will describe the program’s objectives, go over the criteria of evaluation, and offer tips on writing a winning proposal.

In advance of the session, we will distribute excerpts from successful proposals to illustrate what it takes to answer the application questions in a convincing and compelling way. This will be a very hands-on session with plenty of time for questions.
