Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
Based on the information provided, there is no evidence indicating that the project is less than 3 months old. The detail about their activities such as celebration during Ethereum Rio and NFT based pilot suggests the project has been operational for a sufficient period.
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 project proposes a community-oriented agriculture approach through agroforestry, which by its nature contributes to reducing greenhouse gases and supports sustainable farming practices. They plan to use NFTs to fund these environmentally friendly agriculture methods, aligning with web3 infrastructure integration.
Grantees who received funding in previous rounds should report on project progress since GR15 or the Alpha round. We understand that some projects may have less progress given the timing of Alpha round disbursements. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing.
The project has reported on various activities since the last round, including community engagement events, initiating a decentralized land stewardship NFT collection, and collaborating with other projects within the ReFi space.
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 the project has provided updates on the progress and engagement with the community, they haven't explicitly stated the lessons learned from previous work. There is also a lack of detail on how additional funding will be specifically used and what the timeline is for future goals.
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.
AgroforestDAO's efforts in community-owned agriculture supported by web3 tools are credible and viable, with a clear link to sustainable practices that are increasingly recognized as beneficial for climate impact.
Grantees can be eliminated from consideration in the round if they are found to be encouraging or enabling Sybil attacks or other forms of malicious manipulation of the grants platform or the Gitcoin community.
There is no evidence provided to suggest that AgroforestDAO is involved in encouraging or enabling Sybil attacks or other forms of malicious manipulation of the grants platform or the Gitcoin community.
