Hi,
Wikimedia Polska (Poland) has just launched its own scholarships programme for Wikimedians willing to attend Wikimania 2012 in Washington, D.C. This year, apart from up to 10 scholarships for Wikimedians from Poland, we are also going to grant up to 6 scholarships for Wikimedians from other countries. Only countries which have lower national income per capita than Poland (according to World Bank 2010 stats) are eligible. We are particularly willing to reach out to the Wikimedians from the former USSR countries (except Estonia, which doesn't meet the income criteria) and from the Balkans (except Greece and Slovenia, for the same reason). The scholarship covers travel and accommodation expenses, as well as conference fee.
More details are available here: http://pl.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2012/en
The closing date for applications is March 9.
Regards,
