Greetings! The Wikimedia Foundation Individual Engagement Grants program is accepting proposals for funding new experiments from September 1st to 30th. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IEG
Your idea can improve Wikimedia projects by building a new tool or gadget, organizing a better process on your wiki, conducting research on an important issue, or providing other support for community-building. Whether you need $200 or $30,000 USD, Individual Engagement Grants can cover your own project development time in addition to funding for a team to help you. The program has a flexible schedule and reporting structure, and Grantmaking staff are there to support you through all stages of the process.
Do you have have a good idea, but you are worried that it isn’t developed enough for a grant? Put it into the IdeaLab, where volunteers and staff can give you advice and guidance on how to bring it to life. < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab%3E Also, IEG will be hosting three Hangout Sessions for real-time discussions to help you make your proposal better - the first will happen on September 16th. < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Events#Upcoming_events%3E
For inspiration, you can read more about past projects that received fundinghttps://blog.wikimedia.org/tag/individual-engagement-grants/ or review open proposals < https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IEG#ieg-reviewing%3E.
