Finding Non-federal Funding Opportunities that Align with Your Research Agenda explores strategies for identifying and securing non-federal funding opportunities that align with your research agenda in an increasingly complex and rapidly changing federal funding landscape. The presentation will highlight alternative pathways such as philanthropic foundations, state-level agencies, nonprofits, and mission-driven organizations. Participants will learn practical approaches for matching their research interests with funder priorities while maintaining the integrity and impact of their work. The session will also include tips for building sustainable funding pipelines and positioning research for broader community and institutional support.
