Being able to publish important and robust research is the most effective way to advance science and meaningfully develop our society. We don’t want money to be what keeps excellent researchers and their work from thriving.
This is why the RWA Grant provides 2x fully funded 1-year memberships to the Researchers’ Writing Academy per year to researchers in economically difficult circumstances. One RWA Grant is awarded in September and one in March every year.
RWA Grant recipients will be able to uplevel their writing skills with our proven, time-saving writing systems and be surrounded by a vibrant community of prolific academic writers to lay the foundation for an impactful research career.
The RWA Grant is best suitable for researchers with a PhD or who are in the final year of their PhD. It is not a good fit for undergraduates. We are looking to support researchers who perform rigorous research and for whom the bottleneck is getting solid, important research published. The Researchers' Writing Academy is not the right resource if your main barrier is research ideas, methodology or data collection.
We welcome applications from anyone who is experiencing economically difficult circumstances. We prioritise candidates in the Global South.
Please support the RWA Grant by joining the Researchers’ Writing Academy. We support individuals and institutional groups to get their research published consistently even with busy schedules. Would your institution like to sponsor a grant in 2026-2027? Please contact us at hello_at_annaclemens.com.
The RWA Grant provides 2x fully funded 1-year memberships to the Researchers’ Writing Academy per year to researchers with a PhD (or in their final year of their PhD program) in economically difficult circumstances for whom the bottleneck is getting their solid, important research published. Please submit your application here.
Applications will be assessed on the following criteria: fit for the Researchers' Writing Academy; candidate career potential; anticipated impact of publishing two papers in the next year on their research career; importance of research topic; severity of economic difficulty.
The next RWA Grant will be awarded in March 2027. Applications received by March 1, 2027 will be considered for it.
