Writing applications for research grants is a part of work of any researcher. Despite a deep knowledge of one’s research area and research methods, preparing the application that will receive the grant is often a challenge. Trainings in writing grant applications conducted in English are not widely available. Therefore we decided to devote the last training for the employees from abroad organized as a part of the Welcome2US project to the subject of writing grant applications in the Horizon Europa programme. The training entitled “Navigating Scientific Grant Applications in Diverse Teams: A Hands-On Workshop” took place on the 29^th and 30^th of May 2025 and it was conducted by Joanna Bosiacka-Kniat and Joanna Mazur from the Adam Mickiewicz University Foundation. For the participants these were two days filled with precious knowledge and intensive work with practical tasks. It was also an opportunity to meet new colleagues.
