Hope this email will find you well. The preparation of Wikimania is going on, and we hope to see enthusiastic participation from India this year as well.
You know that in addition to the main Wikimania scholarship, there has been a practice to offer scholarship to Indic Wikimedians.
As per the earlier practice, WMIN and CIS-A2K is offering full scholarships which includes:
- The cost of an individual's round-trip travel as arranged by CIS-A2K
- Shared accommodation for up to 6 nights as arranged by CIS-A2K
- Conference
registration fee. Note that some meals during the conference are
covered by the conference registration fee, such as lunches and
receptions
- The cost of obtaining a visa (Visa Fees)
The participants are
selected based on
the decision of Wikimania Scholarship Committee 2018 and were next in
line as per their analysis to receive full scholarship.
Note: WMIN or CIS didn't make these selection.
Following is the suggestion list of Wikimania committee, the Wikimedians who have been selected are:
- User:Jayantanth
- User:Shyamal
- User:Aliva Sahoo
We congratulate them for the selection, and hope for a smooth visa process ahead. :)
