UK Aid Community Partnership Grants – What to look out for?
There are very detailed guidelines on all aspects of the proposal writing process, and even some videos available on the website. Make sure you check these guidelines thoroughly and follow them exactly.
In past funding rounds, projects that clearly identified, who exactly is benefiting, what the project is proposing to achieve, why the project is needed, and how the project will be implemented were the most successful. Make sure that you are very clear in your language and help the donor to understand, what your project is about.
