About Frontiers Impact grants
Impact Grants are designed to support previous Frontiers grant awardees in sharing the positive impact of their grant activities.
Awardees can use the funding for activities like creating materials, developing communications plans, executing dissemination activities, and hosting workshops to effectively showcase project findings and engage stakeholders. While there are main recommendations for communicating impact, we welcome and encourage tailored activities that best suit your project's needs.
This scheme is only open to existing Frontiers awardees since 2016. Please note this funding is awarded to individuals (applicants) who are responsible for the financial management of this award.
Examples of activities, which can be funded:
- Creation of written or visual resources that highlight the outcome of the research, success of the project, positive change brought, impact achieved or valuable lessons learnt. This could be via case studies, infographics, charts, video, article, podcast
- Stakeholder engagement: this could be knowledge sharing exercises with stakeholders involved throughout the project, ensuring that the projects findings and best practices are shared with those involved throughout. This could involve stakeholders such as fellow researchers, communities, funders, policy makers.
- Communication and dissemination of research: this could be via creating resources and sharing them, presenting the outcomes at conferences or workshops, media outreach (press release, op-ed, interviews), or via social channels with a certain audience or stakeholder in mind. For example, perhaps research was achieved that a policy maker should know about or materials and outreach to approach other funders of research.
