Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
The provided information does not specify the exact start date of the project.
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 is focused on climate solutions, specifically on creating financial incentives for ecosystem services, which includes GHG reduction.
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.
There is no information on whether the project has received funding in previous rounds and, if so, what progress has been reported.
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.
Since it's unclear if they have been funded previously, it cannot be determined if an updated proposal with lessons learned has been provided.
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 appears to be within the realm of viability with a credible team and a clear set of objectives that align with web3 technology and climate solutions.
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 information suggesting any malicious activities, but likewise, no information confirming adherence to fair practices. This would require further investigation.
