It's worth looking at the Wikicite e-scholarship model:

Thanks for your input Mohamed, you're right. Those are actually some of
the areas the scholarship should help facilitate.
We shall update you more on this soon enough.

Connectivity for starters, and owning devices that are capable of
enabling a good summit experience. Not all volunteers are privileged
to contribute to a virtual event in a comfortable way. The Internet
can be expensive for video calls for many countries / regions in
Africa and Asia.

I don't understand what is the purpose of the scholarship this
year, there isn't to travel and no physical venue to host
Wikimania, what is the purpose of the scholarship?

Dear Wikimedia Community Members,
We’re so excited to share some updates with you around
Wikimania 2021! We’ve been hard at work, getting things
running and putting things in place and realized we have so
much we’d like to share with you. Thank you for your
flexibility and understanding, as we navigate through this
rapidly moving ship.
1.
Wikimania 2021 will be happening! We’ve already
announced the dates (August 13-17) but wanted to remind
you - in case you had any doubts - that the first-ever
virtual Wikimania will be happening - and we want you
there! [1]
2.
We noticed that all though we’ve been going full speed
on the back end at organizing Wikimania 2021, we haven’t
updated you as frequently as we would like… So, we will
be sending out a weekly update email to all of you on
Mondays - until the event goes live. Which in case you
were wondering, is in 3 months and 2 days! (Yes, that soon!)
3.
We will be having a Scholarship Program this year as
well! We’d like to remove most barriers of participation
for those who would otherwise not be able to join. More
information will be coming soon around Scholarships - so
stay tuned!
4.
This year's theme is: Celebrate 20 years of Wikipedia
and the humans who make it happen. We will also be
opening up submission proposals for sessions - you can
apply as an individual, a collective or a Community
Organization.
We are excited about all the work and progress happening so
far to make this event happen. We're looking forward to
hearing about your amazing session proposals to help bring
Wikimania 2021 to life. We can't wait to convene to
celebrate two decades of free knowledge.
Best Wishes,
Winnie Kabintie (User:Ms_Kabintie

behalf of the Wikimania 2021 Core Organizing Team.
