Eligibility to Apply
Any active contributor to a Wikimedia project (such as Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, Wikisource, etc.) or a Wikimedia volunteer in any capacity from Central Asia (including Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Iran) is eligible for a scholarship. We also encourage active contributors from regional communities in the Wikimedia CEE Hub, Wikimedians of Turkic Languages User Group, and ESEAP Hub to apply.
Activity within the Wikimedia movement (in any capacity, online or offline) will be the primary criterion for evaluation. Participation in non-wikimedia free knowledge, free software, collaborative, or educational initiatives is beneficial but not required.

The scholarships will cover round-trip flights, accommodation, local transportation, refreshments during the conference, and meals.
