Templates

You can use the templates below to help develop your Letter of Intent (LOI) and proposal. These templates are for reference purposes only, as you will need to use the TLEF online application system to submit your application. You can use the online system to develop as well as invite others to collaborate on your proposal ahead of making your final submission.

You will be prompted to upload a completed budget document when you submit your proposal online, and you will need this budget to complete your application. Be sure to use the budget document that corresponds to the funding call to which you are applying.

Please note, the application system only accepts plain text, so you will not be able to use tables, graphs, or charts in your LOI or proposal.
