What’s New in 2024?

This year, the RUGS Program is structured around three distinct categories of grants:

  1. User Group Grants: Tailored for groups seeking support to enhance user experience or develop user-centric projects.
  2. Conference Grants: Ideal for those looking to host or attend conferences that align with the program’s objectives.
  3. Special Projects Grants: Designed for innovative and unconventional projects that require a boost to get off the ground.

For full details and to submit your proposals, visit here. Your contribution can significantly support the ongoing evolution of the R language.
