Wikimedia Hackathon 2020/Register

Scholarships
Scholarship recipients will be chosen based on their relevance to the event’s Focus Areas, their plan or project for the event, their volunteer contributions to our Wikimedia Technical Spaces in the last year, their interest and verbalized plan around joining as a mentor, or their involvement in pieces of the event’s organization. People requesting a scholarship from Albania and the Baltic’s region will have a good chance to get a scholarship, so please don’t hesitate to register.

The 2020 Scholarship decision committee will consist of representatives from the Open Labs organizing team, WMF, some technical community volunteer representatives, and any organization contributing funds to the process (currently WMDE). Other affiliates may run their own scholarship processes within their communities.

The scholarship committee will be facilitated by Rachel Farrand (WMF) and will consist of:


 * Sidorela (Open Labs/Albania)
 * Mariana (Open Labs/Albania)
 * Nafie (Open Labs/Albania)
 * Lea (WMDE)
 * Marios (Volunteer)
 * Tobias (Volunteer)
 * Lars (Volunteer)
 * Srishti (Developer Advocate, WMF)

Registration for scholarships, WMF staff, and attendees who need visas will close earlier for processing. Self-funding volunteers and affiliates and locals will have a longer window to register.
