The Region 10 office of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST-10) recently made a significant move to boost innovation in Northern Mindanao by training a total of 72 individuals in crafting effective proposals for innovation projects.
This move is part of DOST-10's efforts to empower the region's innovators and researchers to access the agency's innovation fund. The training program aimed to enhance the participants' skills in developing proposal writing, as well as project development and implementation.
According to DOST-10 officials, the training program is designed to help potential grantees create compelling proposals that meet the agency's requirements. This includes aligning their proposals with DOST's priorities and goals, developing a clear project plan, and presenting a sound budget plan.
During the training program, participants were given hands-on experience in writing proposals, with experts from DOST-10 providing one-on-one guidance and feedback. The training also covered the evaluation process, where participants learned how to create evaluation plans that align with their project goals.
By providing this training program, DOST-10 aims to increase the chances of approval for innovation projects in the region. This is good news for researchers and innovators in Northern Mindanao, who can now access funding for their projects and bring their ideas to life.
This initiative is in line with DOST's mission to promote science, technology, and innovation in the Philippines. The agency's goal is to support the development of new technologies and innovative solutions that can address the country's social and economic needs.
For those interested in accessing DOST's innovation fund, this training program is a great opportunity to learn the skills needed to secure funding. With the right training and support, Filipino innovators and researchers can bring their ideas to life and contribute to the country's progress.
