I was tired of sending e-mails and our "standard" letter to ask for funds. I think it doesn't look serious enough.
So I thought a bit about my work : one part of it is to read presentations of projects that might have an impact on water (quality, quantity...many different projects !!). I check that they respect the environment and law to give them the authorization to start the project. But funding organizations look for the same : they want to see :
- who is talking to them ?
- what are the problems of the current situation ?
- what solution do they propose ?
- why should they pay for ?
So I took this scheme and tried to make a document based on it. But I made it shorter than the ones I receive at work, for 2 reasons :
- there is not so much to say (;-))
- it is much more efficient to have an easy-to-read document than a long one that no one's gonna read.
Its aim is to be sent to :
- potential financial partners
- media (in particular international ones, such as CNN, RFI, BBC, ...)
- technical partners for spreading
I am just sending you a draft. The big foreseen changes are :
- outlet (Rémy ?
- a table summarizing : aims - actions - indicators
Please comment it.
best regards and thanks for your inputs !!
