Information and tips for a successful U Change funding proposal
Event description
Do you want to get engaged with sustainability, already know what needs to be done, but lack funding to get started? Or do you have a concrete project on sustainability and are looking for funding to make it a success? The funding programme “U Change” for student initiatives for sustainable development can help finance your project! Each funded student project receives up to CHF 10,000.
Programme
In the first part of the workshop, the project manager of U Change, Yves Gärtner, explains how the funding application process works, gives tips for a successful funding proposal, provides background information and answers your questions.
The second part focuses on the annual reports of the funded projects. Yves gives hints and tips for reporting and explains the logic behind the requirements and forms. Understanding this will also help you if you are yet to submit your proposal.
Join both parts of the workshop or only one:
6:30-7:30pm: From your project idea to the funding proposal
7:45-8:30pm: About the reporting
