Not Funded

Hello @Ibrahim Sani Mustapha thank you for applying for the rapid fund grant. We reviewed your application and after a careful consideration, have decided to not fund this application at this time because several projects targeting this specific University have previously been funded. As such it would be best to consolidate on that work and advance a more strategic approach to engaging with the institution and we believe that this would be best done through the Leadership of the Hausa User User Group.

We strongly recommend that the team reaches out to the Hausa User group to collaborate and potentially get the support that is needed to have collective approach to engaging with the institution in the future.

Best regards, (On behalf of the Middle East and Africa regional funds team) ~~~~ YPam (WMF) (talk) 08:53, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
