Crowdfunding: an innovative way of funding your project
Crowdfunding: an innovative way of funding your project
Getting research funded is extremely difficult with over 70% of research council grant applications being rejected (Else 2014), even more so if you are a junior researcher where you don't have a track record of being awarded grant money, or leading a research project. Crowdfunding may offer a solution. It is a method of raising funds from members of the public online and can offer an alternative to the more formal methods of research funding, and has brought people and research closer together.
Aim: To outline how this model works and give you tips on designing your own campaign.
Objectives: An overview of the literature regarding this model will be provided, together with a good set of resources for future reference when designing your own campaign.

Abstract
Getting research funded is extremely difficult with over 70% of research council grant applications being rejected (Else 2014), even more so if you are a junior researcher where you don't have a track record of being awarded grant money, or leading a research project. Crowdfunding may offer a solution. It is a method of raising funds from members of the public online and can offer an alternative to the more formal methods of research funding, and has brought people and research closer together.
Aim: To outline how this model works and give you tips on designing your own campaign.
Objectives: An overview of the literature regarding this model will be provided, together with a good set of resources for future reference when designing your own campaign.
