Grants:Programs/Wikimedia Research & Technology Fund
The Community Resources team had explored opening the Technology Fund, but in consultation with the Product & Tech Department at Wikimedia Foundation, a decision has been made to not have a dedicated Technology Fund. Instead, if community tooling is needed, the Product & Tech department will work directly with volunteers to develop a plan for building it (potentially using contract agreements vs. grants), alongside a plan for maintaining it.

Wikimedia Research and Technology Fund
The Wikimedia Research and Technology Fund includes two subprograms: Wikimedia Research Fund and Wikimedia Technology Fund.
Wikimedia Research Fund provides support to individuals, groups, and organizations with research interests on or about Wikimedia projects. We encourage submissions from across research disciplines including but not limited to humanities, social sciences, computer science, education, and law. We aim to support applicants who have limited access to research funding and are proposing work that has potential for direct, positive impact on their local communities.
