Hi all,
We are excited to announce the launch of this year's *Wikimedia Research
Fund *with the goal of diversifying the network of Wikimedia
researchers globally
and supporting the Wikimedia Movement in deeper understanding of the
projects, decision making, and building new technologies. If you are a
Wikimedia researcher or you are interested in becoming one, you can apply
for research funds (USD 2K-50K) until December 15, 2023. While all
research proposals
related to Wikimedia projects are welcome, we particularly encourage
research studies on medium to small size languages and communities, as well
as in low resourced languages and projects. You can even propose to repeat
a past study in a given language in another language!
