Hi Lisa,

Thanks for the info, and congratulations to the grantees! I'm trying to
find out more information about the grants (US$ amount, details of what
the money will be spent on, and expected impact), but I can't see the
applications or further information on meta - could you point towards it
please?

Thanks,
Mike
