Show Notes

Admittedly we sometimes live in a bubble where all things diversity and internationalisation are incredibly interesting and incredibly important. And they are. But how about the research managers and administrators who support researchers in writing grant proposals? 

We needed a snap back to reality, and who better to help us with that than Niels Tudor-Vinther. Niels was work with European research funding in different ways for a number of years, several of them as a proposal writer. Now he’s the host of “The Grant”, a podcast dedicated to European research funding. So not only can he talk about his own experience – he has talked to research managers from all over Europe about this topic. 

But how do they talk about diversity and internationalisation? Do they talk about it at all? And their thoughts on Gender Equality Plans?

We have both worked pre-award previously in our careers, so we could certainly see ourselves in some of the points. 

We had fun and had some good discussions – and look forward to chat with Niels again in the future.
