The British Academy’s International Interdisciplinary Research Projects programme prioritises early career researchers
Top tips
- Although projects should be challenge-focused, this is an open opportunity to pursue the ideas applicants feel are important
- Emphasise how the project will help your personal career development
- Don’t overpromise; reviewers will immediately sense your proposal is unrealistic
- Official Development Assistance eligibility must be genuine and fully justified
