SUMMARY:Session 5: How to get funding in the Americas
DESCRIPTION:\nHow do you find funding for research, money for startups, or clients as a consultant? These answers are often location dependent, so we will have three sessions each with a different geographic focus. This session will focus on finding funding as a researcher, consultant and entrepreneur in the Americas. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCWiW, Agenda for Change, and RWSN are pleased to offer this virtual session as part of our 2025 Water and WASH Career Days. Thanks for support from Global Water Center, Josh’s Water Jobs, Skat Foundation, and World Vision. Be sure to check out other sessions here.\n\n\n\nSpanish interpretation will be available for this session.
