Funding Agencies have recently begun to encourage the use of concept notes as a way for applicants to obtain feedback on their ideas and projects. The major purpose from the agencies’ point of view is to help those applicants develop more competitive projects and to save time by eliminating those that are not likely to be funded. However, the applicants' purpose in developing a concept note is to capture the interest of the funder and demonstrate that the idea proposed is worthy of further consideration. Through it, applicants can tell the reader what the project is, why it is important, and...
