While there are numerous funding opportunities, several challenges can make access difficult:
High Competition: Many funding programs are highly competitive, with a large number of applicants vying for limited resources. Complex Application Processes: The application process can be time-consuming and complex, requiring detailed information and documentation. Matching Funds: Some funding programs require matching funds or co-funding, which can be difficult to secure. Reporting Requirements: Funders often require extensive reporting and accountability, which can be burdensome for researchers.
