The Academy Workshops Program offers financial assistance to Australian social scientists to host multidisciplinary workshops, aimed at advancing research and policy agendas on nationally important issues. Each year, up to eight workshops are funded, with grants of up to $9,000 (excl. GST).
In this session, we provide a comprehensive overview of the Workshops Program, covering its purpose, scope, eligibility criteria, benefits, and application process. Additionally, you’ll hear firsthand experiences from past participants, from the preparation of their applications to the completion and delivery of their workshops, and beyond.
The session also includes a Q&A segment.
