Hi Dr Pavanaja, Back in April you asked for a list of scholarship applicants and people explained why we only publicise the list of people who are awarded a grant, not the people whose applications are declined. The list of people awarded a grant has been published, your request for a list of applicants has not and hopefully won't ever be published. Nothing has changed. If people apply for a scholarship and are declined that remains a private matter between the applicant and the scholarship committee, unless of course the applicant chooses to say that they applied and didn't get a scholarship.
Regards Jonathan This was your email in April. >>> >>> I would like WMF to make the list of applicants, their contributions, the >>> weightage used for each kind of contribution and the final list of >>> scholarship awardees in a table form. Since WMF is run by the contributions >>> of the volunteers, such a transparency is definitely needed from WMF. I >>> hope WMF will oblige. >>> >>> Regards, >>> Pavanaja > On 17 May 2017, at 06:07, Dr. U.B.
