Applications are not required to be in English. Please complete the application in your preferred language.
Project Goal edit
What will be the outputs of your project and how will those outputs contribute to advancing a specific Movement Strategy Initiative
- What specific Movement Strategy Initiative does your project focus on and why? Please select one of the initiatives described here
Project Background edit
- When do you intend to begin this project and when will it be completed?
- What specific challenge will your project be aiming to solve? And what opportunities do you plan to take advantage of to solve the problem?
- No awareness of Movement Strategy. There are many within the community who have not joined in discussions previously. This means that many are not aware of the opportunities that MS brings. For example, the discussions regarding hubs, skills development, and increasing awareness of the movement are all important for many within the community. Yet they have not actively engaged in these discussions.
- No awareness of what Movement Strategy Grants are about. Movement Strategy grants are not very visible within the community. Many do not know about MSIG. They might have read the call to apply for grants, but do not understand what it is about.
- Language barriers prevent people from engaging in MS and MSIG. Communications with the community happen mostly in English. This increases the awareness problem and reduces the ability of people within the community to take advantage of the opportunities that MSIG provides.
- Does this project aim to apply one of the examples shared in the call for grants and if so which one?

Outcomes edit
After your activities are complete, we would like to understand the draft implementation plan for your community. You will be required to prepare a document detailing this plan around a movement strategy initiative. This report can be prepared through Meta-wiki using the Share your results button on this page. The report can be prepared in your language, and is not required to be written in English.
In this report, you will be asked to:
- Provide a link to the draft implementation plan document or Wikimedia page
- Describe what activities supported the development of the plan
- Describe how and where you have communicated your plan to relevant communities.
- Report on how your funding was spent
Your draft implementation plan document should address the following questions clearly:
- What movement strategy initiative or goal are you addressing?
- What activities will you be doing to address that initiative?
- What do you expect will happen as a result of your activities? How do those outcomes address the movement strategy initiative?
- How will you measure or evaluate your activities? What tools or methods will you use to evaluate your activities?
To create a draft implementation plan, we recommend the use of a logic model, which will help you and your team think about goals, activities, outcomes, and other factors in an organized way. Please refer the following resources to develop a logic model:
- Overview of logic models on Meta-wiki
- Example logic models for reference for other movement activities (such as partnerships and edit-a-thons)
- Blank logic model template on Google Drive
Please confirm below that you will be able to prepare a draft implementation plan document by the end of your grant:
- ...I will be able to prepare the plan
Optionally, you are welcome to include other information you'd like to share around participation and representation in your activities. Please include any additional outcomes you would like to report on below:
