Meeting with Warren Bailey, 30th January 2012
- Not offering ARC Linkage grants in the first part of the year.
- 12 month projects to establish research partnership with a reasonable prospect of an ongoing project. Reasonable prospect is assessed based on the project being synergistic with the goals of the organisation.
- Application forms on the web, matching dollar for dollar.
- Warren is the gatekeeper for the scheme – 15 awarded last year.
- Reasonable chances of success if meeting the criteria.
- Assessed upon receipt.
- Warren can help with the application.
- Not only Linkage funding because they are becoming harder to obtain and offered less often.
- Talk to Macquarie Institute of Advancement (headed by Mark Williams) look at potential for Foundation money.
- Talk to Mark Wiggins to see if there is a Business Development Manager for Human Sciences who might be able to help source funds.
