Hello guys
I am aware some of you wrote me and I did not answer yet. It is not cool
I did not. I apology
Faulty... well, kids holidays starting ;)
And a huge enormous monstrous full of dirt mess at Wikimedia France.
Which is basically eating most of my energy.
I'll follow up later in the week. Again, sorry for not answering

Dear all
We would like to inform you that the Wiki Loves Africa 2017 grant
request has been accepted !
Yeah !
La demande de subvention pour WLAf 2017 a été acceptée
THE THEME
/*People at Work*/
*Competition scope:*The theme calls for photographs, videos and audio
files that document all manner of occupations undertake across the
continent - formal and informal, contemporary and ancient,
business-oriented and creative. There will be a special prize that
will be concentrated on visually capturing women working, and another
that illustrates rare, fading or threatened traditional craft, style
or way of working.
LE THEME
Les gens au travail (traduction à préciser)
Il y aura un prix spécial pour l'illustration des femmes au travail.
Et un spécial pour les métiers menacés d'extinction.
WHEN
The contest will run October-November
There will be a dedicated drive after the event to better use and
integrate pictures
QUAND
Le concours se déroulera en Octobre et Novembre
Il y aura aussi un effort particulier après le concours pour mieux
intégrer et réutiliser les photos
*************
A few things to note though...
1. This year, per request from WMF, only 13 countries will be allowed
to request funding to participate with local events. That list covers
any country which has already participated to WLAf at least once.
Moreover, amongst those 13 countries, some will be covered by the WLAf
Project Grant in the same way than in 2014-2015-2016, whilst some will
have to request a Rapid Grant to WMF.
This is the list of countries who should ask a Rapid Grant if they
want to join in
**
1. *
Egypt
2.
Tunisia
3.
Cameroon
4.
Nigeria
5.
Ghana
6.
Côte d’Ivoire
7.
Algeria
8.
South Africa
*
**
**O*f course, we would support those asking for the rapid grant as
needed. The main benefit is... that local budget can potentially
increase given that max budget for a Rapid Grant is 2000 dollars.
***
***We will reach out to all groups individually anyway to discuss this.

This is the list of countries who should follow the same process than
last year if they want to join in

_So if you want to get involved in organiz__ing the contest at the
global level, please __get in touch with us asap so that we can
integrate you from the start_*_in the who__*le organization and
planning. *_*Project will start with evaluation planning, in
consultation with and supported by WMF, to improve documentation and
reporting of impact. *We will probably launch an easy going group list
to better coordinate this and involve people. So please, if you want
to be part of it... jump in (********<evil look>****we will contact
some of you privately anyway. The african developer group is on target
for example<******/evil look>****
