We are in need of revamping the Wikimania Scholarships Process, and your help is needed! Please participate in the discussion on meta[1]: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania/Scholarships Talk to you on meta - Jessie BACKGROUND: Every year, the Wikimedia Foundation, Wikimedia Chapters, and outside organizations sponsor the attendance of individuals to the international Wikimania conference. In 2012, over 150 scholarships were awarded to recipients from over 60 countries. These scholarship recipients were chosen from 1,113 applications. Each recipient was selected primarily on the basis of his/her participation in the Wikimedia projects and his/her future goals for participating in the Wikimedia movement. The scholarship recipients were chosen through a confidential application and selection process run by the Wikimania Scholarship Review Committee. The committee was composed by Wikimedia volunteers and one Wikimedia Foundation staff.[2] [1] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania/Scholarships [2] For more information on the 2012 scholarship process, see the April blog post: http://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/04/25/wikimania-2012-scholarships/ -- *Jessie Wild Global Development, Manager Wikimedia Foundation* * * Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge.
