About the Scholarship Program

The OSM Kerala Community believes in inclusivity and the importance of supporting community members who might not be able to attend the meetup due to financial constraints. Our scholarship program is designed to help these individuals by covering part, if not all, of the costs associated with attending the event. Though we are aiming to support attendees from Kerala and nearby areas due to the limited resources, we will try to support others also based on their contributions.

Depending on the needs and the application, the scholarship may cover:

  • Full Scholarship - Travel and Accommodation costs.
