How will the funding requested support your community’s participation at Wikimania?
Our group is composed of 20 active members. With this scholarship, we would be able to simultaneously participate on the events, take part on the online trainings, and conduct an evaluation and open-forum after. While mostly have their devices, it would be engaging if we can be able to conduct the event in a hall with a projector and speaker where we can freely move and exchange ideas with each other. Those who would need to attend in their residences will be provided with data packages, and small hardware support if needed. This will also be an in-person meet-up, foods and transportation expense going to the venue will also be provided. We are also planning to conduct case study session in relation to Hatch-A-Wiki project and other community outreach we conducted in the past 2 years.
