My Fellow Wikimedians,
We wish to encourage everyone you to draft your answers to the scholarship
application questions stated at
https://wikimania.wikimedia.org/wiki/2023:Scholarship_Questions first on a
notepad before submitting your application on the limesurvey (scholarship
application form).
The answers submitted on the limesurvey are considered final and cannot be
edited. We also discourage applicants doing a duplicate submission.
Deadline for application submission is on 5 February, 2023 (Sunday) at
23:59 AoE (UTC-12).
Kind regards,
Butch Bustria
ESEAP Wikimania 2023 Core Organizing Team
Hello everyone,
Scholarship applications for Wikimania 2023 are now open until Sunday, 5
February! Wikimania 2023 will be held in Singapore from 16–19 August. This
year, we aim to be inclusive for Wikimedians worldwide in line with this
edition’s theme: “Diversity. Collaboration. Future.”
Scholarships for Wikimania 2023 are available in different types for
traveling to Singapore:
-
Full scholarship: travel, accommodation, and registration are provided;
-
Partial scholarship: accommodation and registration are provided.
All scholarship recipients are covered by Wikimedia Foundation Travel
Insurance Policy.
Whereas scholarship recipients have historically written a report to
fulfill scholarship requirements, this year they will have the opportunity
to do volunteer tasks during Wikimania. The Committee will work with
recipients to find a volunteer role that suits each recipient’s skills and
experience. Scholarship recipients opting to volunteer rather than write a
report will be asked to volunteer for 2 hours over the course of Wikimania,
with the option to volunteer more hours if desired.
Apply now! <https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/799477> Make sure to
share your experiences during your Wikimedia movement journey and support
with links. Newcomers to Wikimedia will be considered. The deadline to
apply for a scholarship is 5th February, end of the day anywhere in the
world. Applicants will be notified of decisions in May.
