Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
The project's establishment date is not provided; thus, it cannot be determined if it meets the 3-month age requirement.
The Grant must be primarily focused on climate solutions (the group may do other work but the grant proposal should be directly related to climate solutions). The proposal should explicitly outline how this project will help reduce GHGs or is an important core infrastructure for web3 climate solutions.
The Coffee Impact Collective project is focused on climate solutions by aiming to regenerate and decentralize coffee supply chains, using regenerative agriculture to build resilient systems, which can help reduce GHGs.
Grantees who received funding in previous rounds should report on project progress since GR15 or the Alpha & Beta rounds. We understand that some projects may have less progress given the timing of Alpha & Beta round disbursements. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing.
The project described activities during the Gitcoin Alpha Round such as scientific research and consulting with scientists, showing progress since previous funding rounds.
All returning grantees are expected to update their proposal, in addition to project updates the proposal should include lessons learned from previous work and how they will use the additional funding from the upcoming round. The updated proposal should indicate how additional funding will help the project meet its goals, and include a rough timeline for the project overall.
While there is mention of what the project plans for the Gitcoin Beta Round, there is insufficient information on the lessons learned and a detailed plan for how additional funding will be used, including a rough timeline.
There is a general expectation that projects are within the “realm of viability”. Even if a project may be at a very early stage, it still must seem credible to the average person with an understanding of web3 technology and climate solutions. Grantee founders must genuinely intend to build the project, and the project must not broadly be considered an impossibility.
The Coffee Impact Collective's focus on regenerative agriculture and the creation of a decentralized marketplace for environmentally impactful coffee trading appears to be within the realm of viability and aligns with web3 technologies and climate solutions.
