Hello and good day to you, hope you are doing well.
I have a few projects in mind, but I'll need to do some more research
before I can finalize them. I'll get back to you as soon as I have more
information.
Best regards,
Aliyu Shaba.

Dear Wikimedia Grantee Partners,
I am writing to make sure you are tracking that the Wikimedia Research
Fund will be accepting applications until December 15, 2023. As
institutional leaders of the Wikimedia movement, affiliates can be
well-placed to partner with researchers to explore key questions and issues
that help us learn and grow as a movement. If there are questions you (or
your partners) are exploring that would benefit from focused research, and
if you have local researchers among your current partners, you might want
to consider working with them to develop a proposal (or encouraging your
partners to). You can develop new research, or leverage existing research
to more deeply explore topics relevant to the Wikimedia movement. Funding
ranges from USD 2K-50K and we encourage applicants to consider the core
needs of their projects and request only the essential funding required.
You can find out more about the Research Fund here:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Programs/Wikimedia_Research_%26_Tech…
The goal of the Research Fund is to diversify the network of Wikimedia
researchers globally and support the Wikimedia Movement in deeper
understanding of the projects, decision making, and building new
technologies. While all research proposals related to Wikimedia projects
are welcome, we particularly encourage research studies on medium to small
size languages and communities, as well as in low resourced languages and
projects. You can even propose to repeat a past study in a given language
in another language.
Detailed submission instructions will be shared by November 15, 2023 on
the Meta page linked above. For a sample of last year's stage I
submissions, please check the archive
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Programs/Wikimedia_Research_%26_Technology_Fund/Wikimedia_Research_Fund/Archive#Application_process>
.
You can also review previously funded proposals here:
