Important: Include Wikimania Scholar Budget in Your Proposal
by Romeo Ronald L 24 Sep '24

24 Sep '24

Dear Affiliates, As we approach the September deadline for budget proposals, I encourage you to consider allocating funds for a locally selected Wikimania scholar to attend the Wikimania 2025 in Kenya. Supporting one or two scholars can significantly enhance our representation at the Kenya event while reducing reliance on the limited global scholarship slots. Please include this in your budget proposals to maximize our presence at Wikimania. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Best regards Wikimania 2025 Comms Team
