Grantsmanship Guidance Notes :
Here are some points to bear in mind when preparing a grant application. We hope that the advice offered below will be useful to researchers engaged in the planning, writing and submission of grant applications.

However, the India Alliance would not wish grant applicants to feel that they are being instructed. Effective ‘grantsmanship’ is largely dependent upon personal ability, good mentorship, compelling research proposals and experience gained through the peer review and results of grant applications.
