[governance] Web We Want Small Grants

[parminder]

FYI

The Web We Want Small Grants round for 2013 has been announced, with three
different categories of grants.

Rapid Response (deadline: open, rolling) Micro-grants designed to help when
you face an unexpected crisis or strategic opportunity that demands more
resources fast.

Surveillance Action Research (deadline: open and rolling until September 30)
These grants will enable national groups or coalitions to investigate their
own country's surveillance policies, laws and practices. Funds are available
for action research to provide solid evidence to underpin your own local
advocacy, media work and campaigning. The results of the country research
will also be published under your group's name in a special report on global
surveillance.

Capacity Building and Outreach (deadline: September 9) Capacity Building and
Outreach funds are available to groups in selected African and Asian
countries to run workshops or training sessions that will increase
understanding of the value of an open, free, and universally accessible
internet and the policies needed to advance it.
Grants could be used to run interactive workshops or training sessions,
and/or to host a participatory dialogue on what actions or policy changes
are most important in your country; or in other ways that you suggest to us
based on your needs. Resource materials, including the Web Index report
cards on how effectively countries around the world are using the Web, will
be supplied to help you plan training and awareness-raising sessions.

More details about the grants and how to apply are on the Web We Want
website. in English, French and Spanish.
