Funders such as the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and private foundations are increasingly interested in funding strong intersectionality proposals, but until this training, opportunities to learn how to write a successful intersectionality proposal were rare.
Informed by ITI Founder and President Lisa Bowleg’s success writing and getting NIH-funded intersectionality grants as a principal investigator, serving as a co-investigator on NIH-funded intersectionality R01 grants, mentoring K01 intersectionality-focused training awards, and serving as a reviewer of NIH grant proposals as a former NIH study section member, we have developed Land That Grant! to share the key tips and strategies that you need to know to write a competitive intersectionality grant application. Although the training focuses primarily on NIH grant proposals for the social and behavioral sciences, this training will be beneficial to anyone writing an intersectionality and health-focused grant application.
Post-doctoral researchers and faculty who are planning or currently writing an intersectionality and health equity-focused grant proposal for submission to a research funding agency (e.g., NIH) or a private foundation.
- Save time! Get a fast-track to essential tips and strategies for writing a winning intersectionality grant proposal.
- Avoid the common pitfalls that sink many intersectionality proposals.
- Increase your chances of getting funded. Individual investigator NIH grants can range in the neighborhood of $50,000 to $2.5million. Although we can’t guarantee that you’ll get the grant as a result of this training, this training is an investment that will get you closer to landing that grant!
