Hi all,

Kind of busy week on the DISC email list! :)

Please spread the word about the below opportunity from Julia Computing:


We are pleased to announce that Julia Computing will be offering small grants to fund efforts to increase diversity and inclusion within the Julia community, using funds graciously provided by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.

Examples of qualifying projects or activities may include efforts to create teaching materials on or using Julia targeted at late entrants to computing, efforts to improve or translate documentation, and hosting Julia events that will target or benefit underrepresented populations in computing.

Each proposal may request up to $4,000 USD, which may be put towards labor hours and resources required to carry out the proposed activity.

The deadline to apply is Sunday, November 25, and award announcements will be made within one week.
