FDP- “Organizing a funded
CME/ Workshop/Conference- Step by Step Guidelines”
Maharshi Aurobindo Subharti College and Hospital of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences conducted a Faculty Development Program at 12:00 PM on 25th March 2025. The Faculty Development Program on “organizing a funded CME/Workshop/Conference- Step by Step Guidelines”, with Dr. Akriti Shukla as the resource person, seems to have covered essential aspects of securing funding for research and organizing events.
Dr. Akriti’s insights on the funding opportunities provided by organizations like ICMR (Indian Council of Medical Research), the Ministry of AYUSH, and other government agencies are crucial. The mention of the two funding cycles per year and the different project durations (3-year short and 5-year long proposals) offers a clear understanding of the funding process. It’s also interesting to learn that funds from completed research projects can be redirected toward organizing CME, workshops, or conferences.
