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 project 'Web3 Deliberative Governance - Decision Legos' explicitly aims to address challenges in decentralized governance using the framework of deliberative governance and by analyzing case studies including Arbitrum and Uniswap governance, which aligns with the specified criteria.
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.

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 states that it aims to publish an article and reflects on a pilot in the Web3 ecosystem, indicating that the research is currently ongoing and has not been completed, thus meeting the criteria for not being retrospectively funded.
