As Nathan I see no contradiction.
I would feel embarrassed if WMSE had used FDC funding in their project
to get more female contributes. Also as it is rather easy to get that
funded from within Sweden and semi-government financing organisations
(but not for WMF to "get" that money for general use)
But I feel quite comfortable that FDC money was used to buy the camera
that was used by a volunteer in ESC 2013 to take photos that has been
uploaded to Commons and used in 60+ versions and been viewed almost a
million times and believe our small donors would approve of that use

Both of these policies are internally consistent and logical, however I
believe that they are at least partially contradictory. I believe the FDC

would like to know if there is a policy position from the WMF Board of
Trustees that clarifies what is expected of Chapters in this area.
Can you elaborate just a little on how you find them to be contradictory?
If we assume, as I think is reasonable, that the first principle applies to
funds raised by WMF and the second is directed at funds raised by
individual affiliates, they don't seem to me to be in conflict.
