Our office is currently seeking reviewers to join our 2024/25 review panel. As a reviewer, you will be joining a diverse group of UBC faculty, staff, and community leaders to review a selection of CUES fund proposals and make recommendations for funding.
CUES is a unique fund designed to support community-university partnerships that are collaborating on research, teaching, or learning projects. Funding is directed to community partners to cover costs that are not typically supported by traditional grants.
What to expect
Being a reviewer involves a one-time commitment between January-February, 2025, which includes:
- Joining a brief reviewer orientation (30-45 minutes) prior to beginning your evaluations
- Reviewing approximately 10-12 CUES proposals (approximately 5-6 pages each) between January- February, 2025 (previous reviewers have stated that this amounts to approximately one full day of work)
- Participating in a one half-day panel review session (via Zoom) in February (dates still TBD)
The Community Engagement team will provide all the support you need throughout the review process. Additionally, you can review previous recipients to get an idea of the types of projects we fund.
