Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
There is no information provided about the start date of the Coffee Impact Collective project, so it cannot be determined if the project meets the 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 is focused on the regeneration and decentralization of coffee supply chains, which aligns with climate solutions. The proposal includes details on how it addresses regenerative agriculture and how these practices can impact GHG reductions, making it relevant to the reduction of GHGs.
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 proposal mentions what they have done during the Gitcoin Alpha Round, which includes scientific research and drafting a methodology proposal. This shows accountability and progress reporting post-receipt of previous funding.
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 provided description does not include specific lessons learned from previous work, detailed plans for using additional funding, or a rough timeline for the project. These elements are crucial for meeting this criterion.
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 description of the Coffee Impact Collective project appears to be within the 'realm of viability', with a clear focus and practical approach to solving a climate-related issue through regenerative agriculture in coffee farming. No evidence suggests that it is broadly considered an impossibility.
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.
Based on the provided information, there is no evidence or mention of the Coffee Impact Collective encouraging or enabling Sybil attacks or other forms of malicious manipulation.
