The MSIG grant is undergoing updates to its approach and management. To enhance the impact of Movement Strategy, these funds will be focused on specific strategic initiatives related to Movement structures such as Hubs. While the Wikimedia Foundation teams work on these changes, we will not be accepting new applications until further notice. If you are interested in applying for a different grant, please visit the Wikimedia Foundation Grants page to learn more. Please reach out to the Community Development team at strategy2030wikimedia.org if you have specific questions about MSIG.
Movement Strategy Implementation Grants fund projects targeting a specific initiative. Unlike other grants that might be broader in scope of results and outputs, the results of each MSIG project will have a direct impact on a targeted MS initiative.
Do the Movement Strategy Implementation Grants support hiring a consultant or other expert for a project?
Yes. Please ensure that the consultant’s (or other expert) scope of work is clearly defined. This includes the amount of time they will be expected to provide this service on the project.
Can a proposal / project idea be shared with the MSG team before submission?
