"The office hours sessions for the Open Infrastructure fund have kicked off! This Monday, we held the first of three sessions that are aimed at giving more information to potential applicants of the Open Infrastructure Fund on crucial eligibility criteria and factors to consider before putting in a proposal. The next office hour session will be on Monday, June 26, 2023, at 09:00 UTC. You can register for the session at this link. The fund aims to strengthen sustainability and resilience and increase the adoption of open infrastructure that underpins research and knowledge creation. Read our English and Spanish blog posts for more information on the application process. The application deadline is July 31, 2023.

The workshop, which took place in Somerset West, South Africa, was a success and brought together a diverse set of stakeholders from across the continent in both public and private sectors. We will share a blog post with the key takeaways from the discussion next week...."
