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 project has an established Twitter presence and a website indicating it has been in existence for at least 3 months.
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
The project's focus on regenerative land acquisition and stewardship aligns with the criteria as it contributes to natural systems CO2 sequestration and sustainable community development.
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.
The information provided does not specify if the project received funding in a previous round or if any updates on progress and impact have been provided. Additionally, there is no mention of Hypercerts being minted.
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 description includes some hints at past activities and focuses, but it's unclear if this is an update from a previously funded proposal or what specific lessons have been learned. There is no detailed information on the use of additional funding or a rough timeline.
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.
The project appears credible with a well-defined goal related to climate solutions and land stewardship, suggesting it is within the 'realm of viability'. However, specific expertise, qualifications, and skills of the team have not been detailed.
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 available information to assess whether the project has been involved in any form of manipulation or misconduct. It is presumed innocent unless such evidence is provided.
