Talk:Wikimania 2022/Scholarships/Wikimania Festival in Esino Lario - Italy/Report

Report approval

@Iopensa: thanks to you and the team for sharing such a detailed report (I especially enjoyed the Management page with a detailed list of tasks, perhaps you might consider turning that into a learning pattern for other communities) and for bringing Wikimania 2022 closer to your community.

On behalf of Wikimania 2022 COT Grants and Scholarships Team, I’m confirming that your report has been received and approved.

As to your underspent funds (sorry for a delay in getting back to you on this!) we'd ask you to direct the funds remaining in the 2022 Wikimania grant towards supporting your community's participation in Wikimania 2023. Would that work for you? Aced (talk) 11:07, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

Dear Aced, thank you very much for the decision. We will proceed in directing the funds remaining in the 2022 Wikimania grant towards supporting our community's participation in Wikimania 2023. Wikimedia Italia will support the participation of 4 volunteers through scholarships, 2 members of the board and 2 staff members. Sorry for the delay in my reply: I misunderstood you message and I thought we needed to send the funds to WMF and I was checking the procedure. Thanks for this easy solution. best regards, iolanda iopensa (talk) 10:30, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

I have added some information about the use of the remaining funds in the report. Please let me know if you need any further details. iopensa (talk) 17:14, 1 May 2023 (UTC)

3'000 euro have already been spent for financing the participation of the Wikimedia Italia communities to Wikimania Singapore. The rest of the funding allocated (9'800 euro on the total budget of 12'800 euro) will be provided as reimbursement to the participants in August-September. I confirm that the remaining funds of 825,84 euro of the project "Wikimania Festival in Esino Lario - Italy" have already been spent to support the participation of our community to Wikimania Singapore as decided by the Wikimania 2022 COT Grants and Scholarships Team. Thanks and we remain at your disposal if you need any further information. Regards, iopensa (talk) 06:04, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
