Projects must be at least 3 months old. We use Twitter, web domain registration date, and other public info to determine this. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
The provided information does not include specific dates to confirm the project's age. Additional verification using Twitter activity, web domain registration date, or other public information is required.
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. - Examples include: Renewable Energy, Oracles & DMRV, Supply Chain Analysis, Carbon Accounting, climate activists / collectives, Natural Systems CO2 Sequestration
ReFi Colombia's activities such as expanding community support, developing branded platforms, organizing a hackathon focused on ReFi solutions for environmental sustainability, and fostering local ReFi nodes align with the reduction of GHGs and support of core infrastructure for web3 climate solutions.
Grantees who received funding in a previous round(s) **must provide a new update on their progress and impact.** You can also include the challenges you've faced. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing. - We encourage grantees to mint Hypercerts for the work and the impact they have accomplished. Priority review will be given to grantees who have minted a Hypercert.
There is no information provided on whether ReFi Colombia has received previous funding through Gitcoin and if they have provided updates on their progress, impact, or any challenges faced. Additionally, it is not stated whether they have minted Hypercerts for accountability.
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.
Insufficient information is provided to evaluate whether ReFi Colombia has had previous grants, and if they have updated their proposal to reflect lessons learned, planned use of additional funding, and roadmap with timelines.
There is a general expectation that projects are within the **“realm of viability”**. - Even if a project is very early, it must still seem credible to the average person with an understanding of web3 technology and climate solutions. Including information about the team's expertise, qualifications and skills will help us review your grant. - Grantee founders must genuinely intend to build the project, and the project must not broadly be considered an impossibility.
ReFi Colombia appears to have a credible plan with a specific focus on developing ReFi solutions. The background information on team members, such as their association with ReFi nodes and the activities planned, suggest a genuine intent and a project within 'realm of viability'.
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.
No information is provided to assess whether ReFi Colombia has engaged in or encouraged malicious behavior such as Sybil attacks. Additional investigation would be needed to determine this.
