Hi,

I think someone else posted in the thread a summary.  But some more detail below.

USD$ 237,146 and 69 grants awarded.

US$435,369 and 16 grants awarded.

In 2020, BtN budget was USD$784,000.  We definitely had people complain that they missed out because of the application deadline, which is why it's been removed.

None in 2020, but that may have been inexperience.  In 2021, the Zimbabwe chapter was awarded a $79,000 grant through the Research program (see more at https://www.isocfoundation.org/2021/08/the-future-of-e-waste-in-africa/).  There are also chapters involved with other organizations through the newly launched Resiliency Program (beginning this year).

Total Awarded in 2020 across all programs was $3,801,456. 

Hope this helps.
