The form clearly states 'We prefer you upload your videos to YouTube, but
will accept submissions on other platforms (such as Google Drive) should
YouTube not be available in your region.', we're happy to receive videos in
other formats if some groups would like to do that, they can get in touch
with us to confirm the approach they'd like to take. Similarly, if people
want to record a video in another language we can do our best to find a
translator who would be able to add subtitles on the video in English.

We decided last week to extend the application period to allow more time
for groups to prepare their videos. This is reflected on the online form,
blog, and HOT Twitter.

Thanks,

Rebecca

Note that pitch form is limited to public YouTube videos.

Solely in places where YouTube is unavailable it is possible to send a private 
proposal, also limited to a video form.

It is going to significantly discourage people
that are not native English speakers or are
 not fans of agreeing to YouTube terms.

[OSM-talk] HOT Microgrants 2020 - Call for Applications

[Rebecca Firth]

 Hi,

Very pleased to announce the call for applications for HOT Microgrants 2020
! HOT wants to support the development of OSM communities worldwide through
providing small grants to assist their activities. This year we're
providing Microgrants at 2 levels; $200-1000, and $1000-7000 USD.

The form to pitch your project is relatively simple, and you can reach out
to microgra...@hotosm.org with any questions. Pitches are due by *9 October*.
More info: https://www.hotosm.org/updates/HOT-launches-Microgrants-2020/

Thanks,

Rebecca
