[SANOG] ISIF Asia 2022 grants open for applications

[David Dawson]

Hi SANOG folks,

I just wanted to draw your attention to some grants on offer for
organizations working on Internet development in the Asia Pacific.
Projects can range from Internet infrastructure, to research, to
upskilling and helping communities be able to access the Internet.
Grants are between USD 30k and 150k, and there are a wide variety
of organizations that can apply.

Applications close May 15.

This year there are also grants for issues related to the
environmental impact of the Internet. More details and links below.

Thanks!
David

Applications are now open for the 2022 Information Society Innovation

Fund (ISIF Asia) grants cycle.



ISIF Asia empowers organizations across the Asia Pacific region

to research, design, and implement Internet-based solutions to solve

Internet development challenges that support community development and

growth.



Applications are open to public and private sector organizations,

academia, non-profits, and social enterprise organizations.



There are three thematic areas:



    -Inclusion: Initiatives that help ensure everyone has meaningful

    access to the Internet, online applications and services

    -Infrastructure: Initiatives to increase Internet speed, reduce

    maintenance and operational costs, and improve reliability and/or

    security

    -Knowledge: Initiatives that develop technical capacity and/or

    research around Internet network operations for technical and

    non-technical audiences



In 2022, ISIF Asia will also include grants across all three programs

to support innovative solutions to the environmental impact of the

Internet. The Ian Peter Grants for Internet and the Environment will

be made to commemorate the life and work of Ian Peter, Internet pioneer

and environmental activist.
