Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
Based on the project's description and GitHub activity, it appears that the project 'ReFi Tanzania' has been established and active for longer than 3 months, with GitHub activity indicating ongoing development.
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's description clearly states that its focus is on climate solutions through waste management and integrating blockchain technology for tracking and incentives, directly contributing to the reduction of GHG emissions via regenerative practices.
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 provided project updates show tangible progress such as the removal and conversion of waste, hosting of an event, and the onboarding of waste pickers, indicating accountability and meaningful advancement since the last funding round.
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.
The project submission includes an updated proposal with details on the use of additional funding, such as improving their MVP, infrastructure development, and awareness campaigns, as well as a clear outline of goals and 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 project is based on tangible and implemented climate solutions, leveraging web3 technology in a plausible way, and presents credible intentions by the founding team, which matches the project brief and GitHub evidence of ongoing work.
