Event: AWAC Grantwriting Workshops

AWAC Workshops on Grantwriting

The Research & Publications Committee of the Association for Writing Across the Curriculum invites AWAC members to a series of workshops on grantwriting. Two online, synchronous sessions will be led by Elizabeth Wardle, Howe Distinguished Professor of Written Communication and Director, Howe Center for Writing Excellence, Miami University (Ohio). Prior to becoming an academic, Elizabeth was a fundraiser and grantwriter for non-profits. She has also taught undergraduate grantwriting courses.

This 2-part series will help participants understand possible grant funding sources and the genre of the grant proposal. Participants are encouraged but not required to attend both sessions.

Part 1: The Nature of Grantwriting and How to Find Funding

March 15, 11am-noon EST

This workshop will talk about grants and the ecology of grantwriting and demonstrate where and how to find grant funding beyond the grants provided by our field’s professional organizations.

Part 2: The Genre of the Grant Proposal

March 22, 11am-noon EST

This workshop will engage participants in a genre analysis of grant proposals, with the goal of illustrating the rhetorical moves that grant proposals need to make.
