Plan your project

Aspects such as impact, external collaborations and co-funding should be considered when planning your project.

Find your funder

To fund your project, there is a range of funding agencies available, both nationally and internationally.

Develop your proposal

Developing the proposal involves many things beyond the actual research idea, such as budget, impact and data management.

Post-award activities

When your project has been funded, it must be managed and reported, and obtained results should be shared with others.
