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.
The project team includes postdoctoral, doctoral researchers, and practitioners with affiliations to reputable institutions such as Harvard Berkman Klein Center and CNRS which indicates 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 project's objectives include analyzing emergent forms of network sovereignties heavily tied to digital technologies and exploring their impact on global governance, which aligns with decentralized governance.
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.
The project description does not provide information regarding their funding sources, so it is unclear if they have received for-profit funding.
No retrospective funding. The research must either be launched soon or currently ongoing. Completed projects are not eligible for funding in this round.
As the project description talks about future outputs and ongoing research activities, it seems that the research is currently ongoing and has not been completed, fulfilling the no retrospective funding requirement.
