• Better comprehending the content & rules of the call
• Understanding the “reviewers’ mind-set” and use it in proposal writing
• Deciphering what is the expected content per evaluation criteria;
• Utilizing practical “hints & tips” for competitive proposal writing

The workshop was attended by interested applicants and those looking to find out more about the 2021 Call.
