\u00de\u00f3runn has written hundreds of applications in her career and therefore knows well how complicated it can be to write a good application.<\/div>
In the lecture, she shared her experience of what grant applications have in common, regardless of where they are applied for, and what has proven to be most successful so far.<\/div>
<\/div>
In her opinion, it is important to prepare well: study the allocation rules, see who has received grants before, check who sits on the expert council, and review the fund’s evaluation sheets to understand what is being sought.<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Key elements of a good application are a clear definition of the project with a clear beginning and end. It is also important to consider what is not eligible for funding, as applications will be immediately rejected if applied for an ineligible project. In such cases, the applicant will not receive an evaluation form, but such a form can be extremely useful for ongoing applications and the development of the project. <\/div>
Finally, \u00de\u00f3runn emphasized the importance of setting up a grant strategy with a clear vision, purpose and goals. It also requires analyzing financial needs and preparing an action plan. <\/div>
The lecture was well attended and ended with a lively discussion, where \u00de\u00f3runn answered all questions with great clarity. <\/div>
We would like to point out that it is important to carefully review the terms of all development funds, as there may be different rules between regions of the country. <\/div>
