Hello everyone,
We’re excited to announce the re-launch of the *Wikimedia Research Fellows Program*.
Our team has had a research fellow for several years, but following internal discussions and feedback from the community, we wanted to formalize the program and make it more accessible. This re-launch allows us to clarify expectations, publicize the program widely, and ensure transparency for all applicants.
The program supports early-career researchers who want to make Wikimedia projects a sustained focus of their research work. Fellows receive mentorship, opportunities to contribute to high-impact areas of the Wikimedia movement, and a platform to connect their research with real-world challenges. We welcome applications from researchers across disciplines and regions and applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis.

If you have any questions or feedback, please get in touch with us at research-wmf@lists.wikimedia.org or on the discussion page of the program's public page.
Warm regards, Kinneret
