Hello everyone!
There is an exciting opportunity to fund a crazy, risky, innovative, never ever tested before idea to tackle corruption and promote transparency! You can fund it with up to US$10,000 and materialize it on 2013! And it is extremely simple to apply for it!
For Global Integrity and for me, innovation is ‘learning through trial’. We want to
prioritize innovation in our own work by taking on new approaches to
test, learn, and improve. Through our Innovation Fund we hope to
encourage others in the transparency community to do the same.That is why they are investing in brand new ideas that target the challenges of transparency & accountability.
Take a chance and apply! It is really simple!
Submit an application here. We want to know a little bit about you, your organization (if you work for
one), and of course, your idea! Applications are due on Friday, November 16, 2012 at 5pm EST. Be
ready for the possibility of follow-up questions at any point after you
submit your application. Global Integrity will be investing in 10 to 15 ideas, with up
to 10,000 USD per idea.
The first applications
are already in! And you can submit it in Spanish as well!
I will be available on Thursday, October 25th (in English) and November 5th (Spanish) for a Google Hangout to tell you more about it! If you are interested and have more questions please write back!
Learn more about it here!
