The Grant must be in support of or directly advance the Asian public goods ecosystem; or at least one founder identifies him/herself as Asian. We will refer to the [public goods report](https://www.gccofficial.org/explore.html#report) released by GCC last December for the definition of public goods.
The founder, Akhil, identifies as Asian and the project aims to advance security education and collaboration within the Asian ecosystem.
The project must clearly articulate the problem it addresses, the solution, the implementation plan, the financial plan, and demonstrate there is an excellent team or community for execution
Although the project has a clear plan, it lacks an established team and only lists one individual working on it with no details about tangible progress or community support.
Project must be 3 months old and the project must demonstrate some tangible progress towards their stated goals, with a working MVP is available to the public. We will use Twitter, official website, github, and other public info to determine this. Newer projects should establish themselves and submit to the next round.
There is no evidence of a website, Twitter, Github, or any tangible progress towards their goals. The lack of public information makes it difficult to verify the project's age and progress.
Grantees can be eliminated from consideration in the round if they are found to be encouraging or enabling Sybil attacks or other forms of malicious manipulation of the grants platform or the Gitcoin community.
No information or evidence has been provided to either confirm or deny any involvement in malicious activities.
Projects must comply with Gitcoin core rules and [eligibility criteria](https://gov.gitcoin.co/t/gg21-community-round-eligibility-criteria/19003).
With the limited information provided and lack of public documentation or social media, it is difficult to verify compliance with Gitcoin core rules and eligibility criteria.
