Béria, do you think exploring grants like the one linked to is something people involved with this list should be doing? 

Yes. I - personally - don't see a problem with that. Their idea is "improve the status of ACT women." I do think is a bit limited for us - since they mention the geography region for the actions, but I think we definitely should try it :)

Béria, do you have ideas as to what could be proposed to try to get some of these grants?

I'm a complete dumb when comes to Australia culture, so I might not be the best person to ask to it :) But maybe some GLAM activities for Woman, or some conference (or mini conference) about Wikipedia, maybe an outreach action... Again, I'm not the best one to say you what to do, but if you decide what you want to do and need help you can count with me :)

Laura  - and I'm sorry if you did that already - but is not a good idea send that to WMAU mailing list?



I have already done that, with a version that asked less "How can we engage women and should WMF be looking to try to do this sort of work? Should we be looking for grants?" with more specific questions.  Hence, I didn't include them on the string.
