Thank you Rebecca. Since we the Bangladesh OSM community doesn't have any formal registration, we are suggesting the University chapters to apply for the micro grants since each chapters have a structured committee with adviser from the institution. I can say that HOT gonna get 3/4 micro-grant application from OSMBD community.
We hope and believe that few awardees of this program will be from Bangladesh. Ahasan .....................................................................................
