Today it is not difficult to obtain funding for the implementation of a certain idea, especially a social one. Numerous competitions for grants at the municipal, regional and all-Russian level are held throughout the country, dedicated to different topics and providing different amounts of funding. You need to start preparing a project with its description, which has a traditional structure that can be easily rebuilt for a specific competition, each with its own application form.
Instructions
Step 1
The project abstract is the introductory part of many grant application forms. She acquaints the members of the commission of the granting organization with the main provisions of the project in an abbreviated form. Therefore, it is one of the most basic components of the project description and is written after the development of the entire project, reflecting the most important activities, expected results and originality of the project. In terms of volume, the abstract occupies from one third to half of the page.
Step 2
Most often, the description of the project begins with the formulation of the problem, which the implementation is aimed at solving. Here you can find statistical data, facts that speak about the relevance of the chosen topic, the developments of your organization in this direction, the prerequisites for the development of this project. This section is on average one page of printed text.
Step 3
Next, you should write down the goal and objectives of the project. If the goal has a broader meaning and should overlap with the theme of the competition for which you are preparing an application, then the tasks should be feasible, interrelated and logically include a number of activities described below. This section may also have target groups for the project that will be positively impacted by its implementation.
Step 4
An important part of the project description is a phased implementation plan. Traditionally, the stages are divided into preparatory, main and final. Usually it is filled in in the form of a table and contains a list of activities, the timing of their implementation, a description of the positive results for the target groups and responsible persons. Some managers start work on a project by developing this part of it, in which case other sections are completed faster and easier.
Step 5
The final section of the project description contains the expected results as a result of its implementation and its further development. Expected results can be categorized as qualitative or quantitative, with the latter being more binding. Information about the further development of the project should convince the members of the commission that work in this direction is not one-time and will develop in the future.
