What to do when you can't find funding
What do you do when you can't secure funding for your project? It can be disheartening when your research hits a financial roadblock. In this episode, we explore five crucial questions to ask yourself when faced with this challenge.Key Points Discussed:
- Whose Idea Are You Selling? - Make sure the research idea you're pursuing is genuinely your own. Selling someone else's dream can be challenging. So, take time to align your passion with your research topic.
- Would You Fund Your Work? - Look at your project from a funder's perspective. If you don't believe in your research enough to fund it personally, find a way to make it more compelling.
- What Makes Your Research Newsworthy? - Identify the unique and exciting aspects of your research that could make it front-page news. Newsworthiness is driven by passion and a clear vision.
- Who Cares About What You Do? - Align your research with funders who share your passion and vision. Funding sources that genuinely care about your work are more likely to support your endeavors.
- How Can You Emphasize What Funders Care About Most? - When you understand your funders' priorities, you can find ways to tailor your research to align with their interests.
