MEPI Alumni are among these leaders across the Middle East and North Africa. Small grants for alumni will aid in their ability to take quick action on the ground. These fixed amount awards of $500-1000 will support alumni in short-term efforts of 1-2 months in length. These grants will not only allow IREX and MEPI to help scale our alumni efforts, but to also better track and report on their community engagement during and after this dynamic time. Alumni will be required to provide short reports on their activity and its impact.
