The Project Grants program funds Wikimedia community members — individuals, groups, or organizations contributing to Wikimedia projects such as Wikipedia or Commons — to organize projects that benefit the Wikimedia movement. Grants are awarded biannually and have a minimum budget of USD 2,000. For grants under USD 2,000, please see the Rapid Grants program.
Le sovvenzioni sono generalmente assegnate in quattro grandi categorie, ma accogliamo tutte le idee!
- Software
- Ricerca
- Organizzazione online
- Diffusione offline
Proposals should support the achievement of Wikimedia’s mission and align with our 2030 Strategy.
