You are a researcher. To qualify for this round you need to have a track record of research. This can be as part of an academic affiliation or as an independent researcher. If you are applying for a grant for your first research project, email hello@metagov.org with more info on why you are the right person to conduct this research.
One of the project leaders, Noah Chon Lee, is indicated to have conducted research on social consensus mechanisms and governance structures, which suggests a track record of research.
Governance focus for the research. We will only accept grants that have a clear focus on governance. As noted in the description, you don’t necessarily need to focus exclusively on DAO or web3 governance, but your research needs to be applicable to decentralized governance broadly. A focus on Arbitrum or Uniswap is appreciated but not required.
The research aims to study democratic confederalism as a model for stateless governance, which is directly related to decentralized governance, fulfilling this criterion.
No for-profit funding. If you have received VC funding or any other kind of funding that requires a return on investment, then it will not qualify. It is ok if you’ve received other grants.
There is no clear indication whether the project has received for-profit funding or not. This would require further verification.
No retrospective funding. The research must either be launched soon or currently ongoing. Completed projects are not eligible for funding in this round.
The project description indicates plans to present findings and host governance simulations at the next Zuzalu event, and additional documentation to be created on the trip, suggesting that the research is ongoing.
