Writing Grant Proposals for Young Palestinian Researchers (GRYPS) is a three-phase training course. It's intended to help participants create their own research funding submissions for national and international funding. The course uses a blended learning method, with one virtual seminar (Seminar I), an E-Learning phase led by the course trainers, and a final onsite seminar (Seminar II). Each seminar will consist of lectures, working in group or individually and applicable exercises. These activities will be delivered and led by specialized trainers, professionals from the training partners, as well as regional and international experts. This course is supported by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), the DIES ProGRANT Coordination Center at the University of Cologne and local partners.
Potential participants are younger researchers and PhD-holders from Palestine (West-Bank and Gaza). Participants must meet the following requirements to be selected:
• Hold a doctoral degree or have equivalent research experience
• Have an affiliation to an academic institution in Palestine.
• Possess excellent English language skills, both written and spoken
• Be preferably at the beginning or middle stages of their research career.
