2. Travel and meal fees include:
- Travel wikimedians from different Ukrainian cities for taking part in the conference. For example, a single train ticket from Lviv to Kyiv costs about UAH 150 hrn (USD 20). As we plan to invite 10 participants, travel cost will take about 150 x 2 x 10 = UAH 3000 h (USD 450)

Project scope
[edit]As a recently-incorporated chapter, Wikimedia Ukraine seeks to build up its structural support base in order to sustain the projects which it plans to pursue. We need to finish process of our state legalization and to open a bank account and a couple of electronic accounts to start fund-raising.
The next significant step is popularization of our projects and involving more and more people to Wikimedia movement. For this purpose we want to publish and to disseminate leaflets about WM project and to make a Ukrainian wikimedia conference.
Project goal
[edit]The goals of this project are
- to finish the WM Ukraine legalization
- to build the conditions for involving people to join Wikimedia movement
Non-financial requirements
[edit]None.
Fit to strategy
[edit]Ukrainian media has shown interest in Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects in several occasions. Also the interest shown by our prominent science and cultural figures. This project will thus provide Wikimedia with a tangible, reachable organization that can better spread the mission of the foundation and broaden the understanding of the inner workings of the Wikimedia projects in the Ukrainian society.
Other benefits
[edit]We believe, our actions may also persuade content owners to free up their material and therefore we could enrich the value of Wikimedia Foundation projects.
Measures of success
[edit]We will consider this project a success if we become able to manage such actions as conferences or workshops, and if we will be able to start our fund-raising process that make us a full-fledged participant of international Wikimedia movement.
