Hello,

For the fifth year in a row, the RIPE NCC is committing to support activities 
and projects for 'the good of the Internet'. We are pleased to invite 
applications for funding from the RIPE NCC Community Projects Fund. 

Through the Community Projects Fund, the RIPE NCC will provide up to EUR 
250,000 per year to support projects of value to the operation, resilience and 
sustainability of the Internet, with a focus on tools and services benefitting 
the technical community in the Europe, the Middle East and Central Asia. 

The Internet today owes its success to a lot of non-commercial, 
community-driven work, and this continues to ensure the Internet remains 
resilient, secure and accessible. If you or your organisation are working on a 
new or existing project that fits the criteria below and need some financial 
support to get it off the ground or keep it going, we want to hear from you!

Is your project of benefit to the Internet, particularly the RIPE community?
Is your project non-commercial in nature? 
Do you have a clear project plan and timeline? 

Some things to keep in mind:

- Funding may be used to purchase equipment, but this cannot be the sole 
expenditure
- Funding cannot be used for humanitarian aid, donations, or to encourage 
political reform
- Funding cannot be used to provide scholarships or cover tuition fees
- Funding cannot be used to support any form of commercial activity 

The call for applicants will remain open until 23:59 (UTC), Saturday, 31 July 
2021. You can find more details on the RIPE NCC Community Projects Fund page:

We also welcome Samaneh Tajalizadehkhoob and Flavio Luciani to the selection 
committee. The selection committee for 2021 consists of Jaya Baloo, Bert 
Hubert, Flavio Luciani, Samaneh Tajalizadehkhoob, Tim Wattenberg and Remco van 
Mook (RIPE NCC Executive Board representative). Thank you to the selection 
committee for volunteering their time to support the Community Projects Fund.

Best regards,
Alastair Strachan
External Relations Officer
RIPE NCC
