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.
Without specific information about the track record of research for individuals associated with the project, it is not possible to ascertain if they meet the requirement. An examination of academic publications, prior research projects, or equivalent evidence is necessary to determine eligibility.
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.
Based on the project's description as an interdisciplinary survey of open problems relevant to DAOs and digitally-constituted organizations, it clearly focuses on governance. This suggests the project’s goals are aligned with the governance research requirements of the round.
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 insufficient information regarding the project's funding sources to determine if they meet this criterion. Verification is needed to confirm that the project has not received for-profit funding or funding requiring ROI.
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 is described as an 'interdisciplinary survey paper and community site' which indicates that it is an ongoing effort rather than a completed project. This aligns with the requirement for the research to be launching soon or currently ongoing.
