Further to this announcement from the other week: On request to provide some support for affiliates who do not have a pre-existing travel budget for such events: we have now created a grant request for support for up to 10 representatives of non-APG/SimpleAPG Affiliates, from the European region, who are already involved in GLAMwiki activities.
