Hi Mike-
Thanks for the questions. The amounts of the grants and descriptions of
them are in the press release:
We will be sure to add that information to Meta as well.
Best,
Lisa

Hi Lisa,
Thanks for the info, and congratulations to the grantees! I'm trying to
find out more information about the grants (US$ amount, details of what
the money will be spent on, and expected impact), but I can't see the
applications or further information on meta - could you point towards it
please?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi everyone,
We are excited to share that we have chosen the first round of grantees
for the Knowledge Equity Fund pilot. The Equity Fund Committee selected
six grantees across the Middle East, Africa, and North and South America
who focus on issues of access, education and equity within the regions
they support. You can read an overview of the six grantees and their
work on Diff[1]. We’ve also added information about the grantees and
what’s next for this pilot program to our Meta page[2].
We are happy to welcome these new grantees, and look forward to their
work as movement partners to support the free knowledge ecosystem. Let
us know if you have questions on the Talk Page[3].
Thank you,
Lisa Gruwell and the Equity Fund Committee
