Oh, this is such a lovely news! This is a worthy
investment.
Congratulations to the selected participants. I am sure it will be a great
experience. Do make sure seek advice on submitting a good visa application.
I am sure CIS is already thinking about that.
I would recommend some orientation for first-time Wikimania attendees,
similar to the one for Wikimedia Summit organised earlier this year. It
would be valuable even if it’s an online conversation.
Regards

bridge the representation gap between many communities in yesteryears.

Dear Indic Wikimedians,
I hope this email finds you well.
I am pleased to announce that CIS-A2K is extending scholarships to four
Indian Wikimedians. These scholarships aim to provide an opportunity for
these individuals to represent their community and projects on the global
Wikimedia stage, connect with various Wikimedia communities and bring back
ideas and good energy to their home communities.
The selected candidates have been chosen based on criteria and in
consultation with Wikimania Organising Committee 2024 such as their online
contributions and diversity, including both community and gender
representation.
Here are the names of the scholarship recipients:
- Nettime Sujata (Bangla Wikisource)
- Komal Sambhudas (Marathi Wikisource)
- Ramjit Tudu (Santali Wikipedia)
- Nayan JNath (Assamese Wikipedia)
The major objective behind offering these scholarships is to provide an
avenue for Indian Wikimedians who have been actively contributing to the
community but have not yet had the opportunity to connect with the global
Wikimedia community. We believe that facilitating their participation in
global events can further enrich the diversity and collaboration within the
Wikimedia movement.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the scholarship recipients and
thank them for their valuable contributions to the Wikimedia community.
Please join us in celebrating their achievements and supporting them in
this exciting journey.
If you have any questions or would like further information, please feel
free to reach out to us.
Best regards,
Pavan Santhosh,
Program Manager,
On behalf of CIS-A2K.
