The information in this wiki hasn't been maintained for a good while. Some of the projects described have since been deprecated.

In particular, the "Ushahidi Platform v3.x" section contains information that is often misleading. Many details about this version of Platform have changed since.

This website is an extraction of the original Ushahidi wiki into a static form. Because of that, functions like logging in, commenting or searching will not work.

Transparency International, Ashoka and the International Anti-Corruption Conference Series are launching a global competition for new project ideas to boost transparency, strengthen accountability and fight corruption. The three competition winners will be awarded a mini-grant of 5,000 Euros to support the kick-start of their new anti-corruption project.

We are looking for people who are motivated to solve social problems and develop new methods, tools and projects to fight corruption. It is time to devise new tools and creative means to crack corruption.

• A mini-grant of 5000 Euros to implement your new transparency project

• Anti-corruption expertise on tap: Access to a wide range of experts in the field of accountability and transparency within the IACC Game Changers platform

• The chance to participate at the 15th International Anti-Corruption Conference (7-10 November 2012 in Brasilia). On 7 November there will be ceremony with the Jury, who will award the grants

To kick start your thinking process, here is a short overview of what we will ask of you in the application process, click on the links to access detailed explanations of what we are looking for.

• In 500 words or less, tell your story of change and let us know what motivates you to fight corruption

• In 500 words or less, describe your project in an elevator pitch

• There is an impact map asking you to fill out the context of the problem you are trying to solve, project objectives, stakeholders and deliverables

The winning projects will be selected by an expert international jury based on the following criteria: 1) the social change element and potential to improve the lives of people 2) the novelty and practicability of the approach and 3) the sustainability and scalability of the project. Precise details on the steps related to the application process are here, on the Apply Now page of our website.

Countdown to the 15th IACC in November has begun. Projects pitches will be accepted from now until 1 October 2012 and no later. We will announce the winners between 25-31 October, just enough time to make it to Brasilia for the Competition Award Ceremony.
