As part of Rising Voices’ outreach to potential applicants for our latest round of microgrant funding for citizen media outreach projects, we will be offering a live chat for interested individuals or organizations to ask questions about the proposal process. This chat may be especially of use to applicants that have already submitted a proposal. If you would like to re-submit your application following the chat, please indicate that the proposal is an updated version of a previously submitted application.

Please visit here on Monday, January 24 at 1 PM GMT to participate, as we answer questions from interested applicants on how to make their proposals better, how to organize their projects, or other logistical questions. Find out here what time the chat will be in your time zone.

If you cannot make the chat at the scheduled time, and would still like to submit a questions, please send your question to eddie [at] globalvoicesonline.org. You may also ask your questions in the comments section of this post. We'll answer as many questions as possible on January 24. The transcript will be available here immediately following the one-hour chat session.

Reminder that the applications are due on Friday, February 4, 2011.
