¿Cómo funciona este programa?

Paso 1: Solicitar

1. Read about how the program works and make sure you and your request meet the criteria for support. We encourage you to apply as early as possible!

1. Create your application by typing a name for your page in the format of YourName/EventName in the input box provided. Enter all information as requested and save your application page.

1. Email participationwikimedia.org to notify the Participation Support Committee that your application is ready for review. Please include your full legal name in this email (this information will only be used internally).

1. The committee generally reviews applications once a week. If your request has all the details needed to make a decision, your request will be approved or denied within two weeks, with a message on the discussion page of your request.

1. If details are missing, the committee will ask for clarifications on the discussion page of your request (so be sure to add it to your watchlist and check back for updates regularly).

Paso 2: Viajar y participar

1. If your request is approved, the Wikimedia Foundation will send you an acceptance letter, to be signed and returned as instructed.

1. In many instances, we can book flights and accommodation for you. We can also transfer funds in advance in some cases, provided you submit your application at least 1 month before the event. Otherwise, we'll reimburse your expenses after the event, once you submit your report with all relevant documentation.

1. If you'd like to bring some Wikimedia merchandise to hand out to other event participants, please request some.

1. Read our checklist for other handy travel tips!

Paso 3: Reportar

1. Submit your report within 2 weeks after the end of the event. Use the button provided on your accepted application to start your report. Or, start it using the input box provided here, naming your report in the form of YourName/EventName/Report.

1. In your report, you will be asked to tell us how your funds were spent, and provide a link to one outcome from your participation. Instead of writing a detailed account of the event in your report, we want you to share the benefits of your participation more widely with the community. Your outcome could be a learning pattern to teach others something you've learned, a link to something new that was co-created by you and your fellow participants at the event, or a blog post you wrote to share your experience with others after the event.

1. Email participationwikimedia.org to notify the Participation Support Committee that your report is ready for review.

1. If details are missing, the committee will ask for clarifications on the discussion page of your request (so be sure to add it to your watchlist and check back for updates regularly).

1. Please submit complete receipts and other information as requested so that we can get your funds to you as quickly as possible.

Selection criteria

When selecting applications, we consider the following criteria...

• Fit with Wikimedia’s strategic priorities: How does participation in the event align with strategic priorities?

• Level of participation: What kind of activities will you be engaging in at the event (e.g. presentation, sprint, workshop)? What will your participation contribute to the event?

• Potential outcomes and impact: What are the concrete outcomes that are anticipated as a result of participation in the event? What impact will participation in the event achieve for the movement?

• Investment: Are the costs of participation well balanced with respect to the potential outcomes and impact? Is the proposed budget reasonable? Have you sufficiently pursued other avenues of support and funding if available?

• Contribution record: Do you have a history of engaging with Wikimedia projects and communities, or will your participation in the event enable significant future contributions?

• Support and endorsement: Do you have endorsements from community members or other event participants? Have the event organizers or other event participants shown interest in your participation in the event?

Asistir a un evento Wikimedia

¿Estás interesado en asistir a Wikimania o algún otro evento organizado o fincanciado por Wikimedia? Muchos de los eventos Wikimedia tienen su propio proceso de becas para apoyar los viajes de los asistentes.

Por favor, revisa si hay becas disponibles por parte de los organizadores del evento en el que vayas a participar. El financiamiento del programa de Apoyo a Viajes y Participación no está disponible para eventos financiados por Wikimedia que posean su propio proceso de subvención de becas.

Por ejemplo:

• Las becas de Wikimanía son financiadas por separado. Aprende más de las becas de Wikimanía
• La mayoría de capítulos y grupos de usuario de Wikimedia, u otros organizadores de eventos Wikimedia tienen disponible una sistema de financiamiento de becas como parte de su planificación de los eventos Wikimedia (conferencias, hackatones, talleres, etc).

• ¿Eres organizador de un evento Wikimedia? Por favor, considera aplicar a una beca para financiar las propias a través del Programa de Financiamiento de Proyectos y Eventos. Después de todo, ¡deberías saber quiénes asistirán a tu evento!

• Muchos eventos que no pertenecen a Wikimedia también tienen sus propias becas u otros sistemas de financiamiento para sus asistentes. ¡Te recomendamos aplicar a esos fondos en vez de aplicar a los de Apoyo de Viajes y Participación!
