Greetings to KOSMOS Seed Grant 2015
From South Africa I am Thengi Jiyane based in Mpumalanga Province, I would like to make a formal proposal to the above mentioned organisation, where I would like to be assisted with deed funding to start a small independent printing and publishing prress which will be able to produce few community newspapers written in indigenous languages.
Most of our rural people do not feel comfortable to read English publications, since this is part of rural journalism, our publications shall be distributed in schools and libraries where these vernacular languages are taught and spoken strongly.
I hope Kosmos you will encourage such an initiative, since printing in South Africa is expensive for rural community newspapers.
Please visit the link on the line ‘For more information…’ and proceed with your application. Applying at the right place is one of the most essential things on securing grants.
We wish you good luck!

First of all, I would like to introduce myself my name is Nurhasdiana, I am now in South Sulawesi, Indonesia and As individually I interested for applying the seed Grands. I am working with the community at coastal areas with friends, we have been facing with the poverty problem, early child married, violence against woman, limited access to information, knowledge, skill. The people have been depending on season each year, the life will be worst when dry season is coming and when facing the rainy season, their houses will drown. In term of so many problem amongst the community life we try to work with them, recently we have been working to end the violent against women and focusing on “early child married”. Indonesia since 2002 already had the law but yet the girls have been living in bad circumstance, lack of education, they lost their basic right to get the sufficient education, forced marriage, and so on.
Is that possible for me to apply this opportunity on Kosmos 2015 Seed Grants. Please give me the replying as I needed to know it.
