The Capacity Building Office of the College of Europe in Natolin is pleased to organise a training session titled: "From Idea to Funding: Proposal Writing and Fundraising", delivered by Ms Britton BUCKNER, Project Director at the Catholic Relief Services.
This highly practical, hands-on training will introduce students to the essential skills needed to develop competitive funding proposals. Students will learn how to gather and analyse key information, translate ideas into clear project designs, and align proposals with donor priorities. This is a participatory, skills-based session. Students will work individually and in groups, draft proposal components, and review peer work.
