Projects must be at least 3 months old. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
Based on the information provided, AYOWECCA UGANDA has been actively involved in various community-based programs over a significant period and is not a new project.
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.
AYOWECCA UGANDA's grant proposal is centered around training in regenerative agriculture and planting fruit trees, both of which are climate solutions aimed at reducing GHG emissions.
Grantees who received funding in previous rounds should report on project progress since GR15 or the Alpha & Beta rounds. We understand that some projects may have less progress given the timing of Alpha & Beta round disbursements. This will ensure accountability to supporters and also help encourage contributors by showing what you’ve been accomplishing.
The update section of the proposal outlines the progress made since receiving previous funding, including the number of farmers trained, trees planted, and other project milestones.
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 provides an update on the use of previous funds and outlines how they plan to utilize additional funding for the establishment of a community training/skilling center and farm expansion, although a detailed timeline is not clearly provided.
There is a general expectation that projects are within the “realm of viability”. Even if a project may be at a very early stage, it still must seem credible to the average person with an understanding of web3 technology and climate solutions. Grantee founders must genuinely intend to build the project, and the project must not broadly be considered an impossibility.
The described activities, such as regenerative agriculture training and tree planting, are practical and credible approaches to climate solutions, signaling a viable and genuine intention to build the project.
