- In the description, the first thing should be a 1-2 paragraph summary of what your project is. You can also include how much and for what purpose are you applying the money for. (If the application asks for a summary that will be published [like KONE], you don't need to include the amounts in that summary/abstract).
- Don't assume that the reader has specific and detailed knowledge.
