Not funded

Hello Psalmbusy,

Thank you for submitting your grant application. We appreciate your interest in contributing to the mission of the Wikimedia Movement. We are continuously strengthening our grants review process, ensuring that grant funding is being invested towards impactful projects and efforts geared towards contributing to the mission of Wikimedia Movement in the most efficient and effective manner.

After a thorough review of your application, we have decided to not fund your Rapid Fund request. Here are the main reasons for our decision:

• We think that the budget is not aligned with desired impact. Organizing over 10 photo tours with considerable resources spent on transportation, accommodation, and meals does not seem a sustainable approach of acquiring the content. The impact on Wikimedia project is insignificant or unclear. We think that the proposed content can be collected without organizing physical photo tours.
