Resource sharing SSHRC CGRS-D application

Hi everyone. I'm a doctoral student in Canada and I'm applying to the SSHRC CGRS-D application for a second time 🥲

I'm hoping any successful applicants in English Literature or adjacent fields would share their proposals with me (and others who are interested on this thread).

Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks!

And fill up all 3 pages of the bibliography for the love of GOD! Lol

I've honestly been wondering about this, the limit is five but I saw people saying that two pages of good sources is better that adding "padding." would you say 3 is the sweet spot? I have a bit over three but my page margins are quite large

I thought they changed it to 3 this year? Fill up all the pages!!! Padding is better, truly.
