This paper presents an outline of a generic, comprehensive SEA system that could be applied to the lending and granting activities of MDBs.
Overall, Bridgewater State University grant activities and approaches were particularly inspired and aligned with PLTL and Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning or POGIL (Chan & Bauer, 2015; Moog, 2014).
Most interdisciplinary endeavors are collaborative -- and collaborative grant activities have financial implications, with potential revenue losses to departments due to diversion of overhead costs to other units.
Their Web platforms allow donors to track grant activities and access extensive national databases with relevant information about prospective grantee organizations.
Under the plans being put forward by EuroHORCs, ESF's granting activities would cease and it would concentrate on policy formation and lobbying, possibly moving its headquarters from Strasbourg in France to Brussels, seat of the European Union.
The initiative emphasizes country-ownership, allowing recipient schools to tailor their grant activities to local needs.
Besides support by experts and peers, outcomes of grant activities were also dependent on individual motivation and commitment.
This approach has enabled the spirit of collaboration to go beyond grant activities, permeating the culture across each institution.
Overall, the impact of grant activities on 'capacity to participate in research' was rated highest with a median score of 3 ± 1.1 for writing grant holders, 4 ± 0.9 for bursary holders, and a median of 5 ± 2.3 for research fellows.
End of grant activities will include dissemination of study results: a) at conferences (scientific and professional) with themes related to shared decision making, interprofessionalism and renal policy; and b) on the website of institutions where team members are located.
