We are a global community with the purpose of creating support and coordination within agroforest stewards. We want to allow members to build lifelong reputation and credentials while creating content and context for Food Forest Commons education and enterpreneuship.In between the seasonal events one of the ways to follow the evolution of descentralized agroecosystems will be to create a Learn2Earn environment where apprentices are incentivized to level up while accessing land to produce food, steward seeds &amp; create content through monthly journals. We want to onboard the new generation of land stewards, initially with shared learning and soon with enterpreneurship and collective stewardship of a global network of food forest commons.

Our Mission Is Transformative Art!The Mystic Arts Foundation (“MAF”) is an organizational platform established to support and develop artistic works and pieces which provide experiences and environments that are conducive to personal transformation.&nbsp;&nbsp;MAF, a California corporation, is an IRS qualified 501c(3) non-profit organization, which offers legal organization, structure, full service turn-key administrative services, and financial support for transformative artists and their projects.&nbsp;A primary purpose of MAF is to allow artists to play in their zone of genius and do what they do best – which is to create art … without being encumbered by many of the organizational, administrative, and fund raising hurdles of executing on such important projects.&nbsp;The MAF structure also provides contributors and grant providers full transparency, governance, and reporting to support their contribution/grant mission and serves to match benefactors of such art works to well vetted, managed, and operating artists and their projects.MAF, born out of its inaugural project – the Mystic Flyer Art Car, has been established and formed as a tax deductible non-profit organization in order to effectively and efficiently solicit contributions and grants, creating a vibrant hub of creativity for transformative and immersive art experiences.&nbsp;At first, it was named Mystic Flyer Arts Foundation, however, within a few months it became clear that our mission was much larger than the mutant vehicle project that inspired its formation and “Flyer” was dropped from public-facing written materials.The Board of Directors will primarily focus on selecting and supporting best in class artists that have the drive and vision for creating works with the ability to transform an individual’s experience and consciousness.&nbsp;MAF will support a diverse group of artists and art projects including the development of artistic emerging technologies, art cars, and other portable immersive exhibits which can be displayed and experienced in various formats.&nbsp;Artists that are supported by MAF will have access to an extended network of constituents, supporters, and thought leaders as resources for both developing and then displaying their art.MissionIt is the mission, duty and purpose of The Mystic Arts Foundation (MAF) to bring interactive and immersive art experiences to the public in the United States and Globally.MAF provides mobile and portable art platforms as an educational showcase for graphic artists, LED lighting artists, technology artists, music/sound artists and more. We provide opportunities for learning about the arts and the creation of new art in all settings through workshops…whether we are working on new technologies or art in our warehouse facilities between events or at events open to the general public.EducationMAF provides education in the arts as they relate to the current artists we are working with. Artists are invited to participate with the understanding that they will also provide live, interactive or recorded education in how the particular art is conceived and developed from the inception of the idea to the completion of the art for display and interaction with the general public.Programs for VolunteersAt times, per the discretion of the board of directors, we may provide internships or volunteer opportunities which will provide a pathway for involvement in art development and outreach activities and programs in order to have a greater impact for educating the public and introducing new art, artists and technologies. Some of the activities that volunteers may be involved in are basic education on topics such as graphic design, painting, lighting design, visual perspectives, sound technologies, digital music creation, etc. . Such activities shall always be free of charge to participants.MultimediaIt is our goal to bring awareness to interactive and immersive art from every medium possible and this does not exclude documentaries and photos of our activities, projects, programs and expeditions. All programs and art projects will be available to the public through displays at festivals, events, and other public venues.&nbsp;Our FutureAs our organization grows and attracts donations and support, it is our intention to create one or more "Artology" campuses which will serve as dynamic locations within communities for the development, creation and support of our art and artists. Artology campuses will be public facing with classes, workshops, and DIY facilities serving the community as "Maker Space" with support and artists "in residence." Our goal is transformation of individuals and communities through Art and hands-on experience.

REFI IN THE CLASSROOMAn educational project for an approach to ReFi and DeFi in the context of the Brazilian public school.&nbsp;FOUR GOALS Criarte is to become a part, not the owner.Practical approach to Blockchain technology within the reality of students.Introduction to the social and environmental uses of blockchain technology.Development of a ReFi-DeFi project from the community to the community.Production of teaching material, in Brazilian Portuguese, on DeFi-ReFi for high school.&nbsp;WHY HERE?The abundance of natural resources, ethnic and cultural mix and the progressive reduction of poverty made it seem that Brazil was approaching full development.However, a sequence of events in the last five years severely reversed this expectation and today Brazil returned to the UN map of countries devastated by hunger and to list of countries in debt with the IMF.Within this reality, those who suffer the most are young people, especially the poor. Unemployment, school dropout and the precariousness of public education have generated a lack of perspective that rips off the greatest strength of the youth: their ability to dream.Brazilians are famous for never giving up and for what we call “jeitinho”, that is, the ability to innovate in a disruptive way, out of nowhere.The meeting of the urgent demand for expectation, and the innovation capacity of these young people, gave birth to our proposal for an introductory course to Blockchain, ReFi and DeFi.The course will be placed in partnership with a public school located in a ghetto of an industrial city on the Brazilian coast. The city of Serra, in the state of Espirito Santo.&nbsp;THE CITY OF SERRA - ESThe city of Serra, in Espirito Santo, is a good summary of Brazil, with an estimated population of 536,765 people and located between mountains, plains and the sea.The population of Serra is diverse, among descendants of blacks, Italians, indigenous and Pomeranians, cultural diversity gives way to a colorful city.Urban violence is an old challenge for the city, and in 2011 it was the most violent city in Brazil with 97.62 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants.Although the per capita income is U$ 9.608,42, the average income of the population is only U$ 582,50. In other words, deep inequality.Between luxury condos like Alphaville, beautiful beaches and favelas, Serra represents the soul of Brazil with strong industrial activity, Atlantic forest and sea.In addition to all the social and economic challenges, Serra continues to be a beautiful city, which deserves our attention and affection. It's not the data who says that, it's me, who's spent the entire childhood running on the unpaved streets of neighborhoods like Serra Dourada.Source: Censo 2020THE COURSEOver the 12 weeks of the course, students will learn the basics of blockchain technology and then dive into the solutions that DeFi and ReFi offer to typically Brazilian challenges such as deforestation and the difficulty in retaining, within communities, the value which they produce.The course will be coordinated by professors Marcelo Silva (PhD in Practical Philosophy, Specialist in Business Law and JS Developer by Moralis Academy) and André Donadia (Master in Philosophy and holder of a degree in Philosophy and in English).We aim to partner with people, institutions, ReFi and DeFi protocols so we'll be able to bring to the students the opportunity to have direct live contact with experts, developers and managers who are making a difference in the world of blockchain technology.Throughout the course, students will master technologies and concepts associated to ReFi and DeFi to create a project aimed to face the challenge of making the city of Serra, smarter and more sustainable.&nbsp;THE PHASESThe course will be divided into three thematic modules in order to guide students through a teaching-learning process during which they must master the basic concepts of blockchain technology, precautions, understanding of the economic and social dynamics within DeFi and ReFi. At the end they’ll be faced with the challenge of developing, designing and enabling a project with social and environmental impact.&nbsp;FIRST07/02- Lesson 01 - The emergence of Blockchain technology in finance, geopolitics and the career opportunities.14/02/- Lesson 02 - Differences between money and value. Role of the Central Bank. Economic dynamics. Assets.07/03- Lesson 03 - Technology and Economics. Rothschild Family vs British Treasure.

To keep the resources separated from the personal finances of coordinators and people involved.2. As the company is fully registered before the federal, state level and municipal authorities, the level of transparency is higher than a personal account.3. The school itself can't receive or manage resources in the form of blockchain assets like tokens, nfts, etc.There will be a four step process to the expending of the resources: 1. The resources will be sending from the Crypto Wallet to our wallet at Binance (Because we can withdraw R$ directly from Binance).2. The resources will be converted into Brazilian reals and use to supply one of the requirements described above.3. The receipt and a picture of the object or contract (with all the infos about the expenditure) will be annexed to a memo at the crypto wallet.4. After every expenditure the contributors will receive an email with our thanks, the description of the expense and the link to the receipt.&nbsp;WHO WE ARE?Marcelo Silvahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/marcelo-de-a-silva-0581b9216/https://www.instagram.com/marceloalt.s/https://twitter.com/MarceloAlt5lattes.cnpq.br/3349089601661862André Donadiahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/andre-donadia-13282634/https://www.instagram.com/andredonadia/https://twitter.com/andre_donadialattes.cnpq.br/5711020068767978Mariana N Motahttps://www.instagram.com/mariana.nmota/https://twitter.com/eumarianamotaaVerber Alveshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/verber-s-095a17145/https://www.instagram.com/verb4l/https://twitter.com/_verb4l_Lucas Pachecohttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lucas-ferreira-pacheco-59275932/https://www.instagram.com/lucas.f.pacheco/ThanksPS: the next update will be writted by Mariana.You can follow our updates on our Notion page:https://refazbrasil.notion.site/refazbrasil/Blockchain-na-Sala-de-Aula-fe0a649780eb4f598dfd4e14ec311fb5And you can also follow us in our social media:Twitter: https://twitter.com/Blck_SaladeAulainstagram: https://www.instagram.com/blck_na_sala_de_aula/Link to the full project: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FP62H3rpQvgUHdyyoTiVawmU7WwyoGL2/view?usp=sharingOur twitter: @ReFazBrasil2k22

ReFi In The Classroom

Music Hive is a collaborative community made up of artists, producers, communicators and ordinary people who love music and want to be connected to what's happening in the world of web 3.0 music.The group emerged from the need to share information about the advances of web 3.0 and its applications, seen as an opportunity for everyone who works in the field of music to produce their art or tell their experiences. The blockchain universe is still something very far from the reality of many musicians, producers and technicians who work in the music market in the world. Many are still looking for visibility within web2.0 so that they can get some kind of recognition and maybe funding for their work.This project aims to inform, train and accompany music artists in their various sectors of activity in a journey of learning and empowerment of web 3.0 tools and platforms. Enabling the understanding of the new models of digital creative economy that decentralized platforms offer, guaranteeing autonomy and autonomy for all.To achieve our goals, we count on your help to fund the community.Meet our communityDiscord: https://discord.gg/6wFREGWNTelegram: https://t.me/music_hiveListen to our Radio and meet some artists who are on web 3.0!https://odysee.com/@musichive:3/radiofoundationONAIR:0

Elephant in the Room is a nonprofit decentralized think tank that creates, implements and analyzes strategic multimedia campaigns to move the needle on climate change. You can think of us as the opposite of the Koch Brothers. As opposed to spreading misinformation, FUD and campaigns to maintain the status quo (and their profits) we are spreading positive memes and ideas that help people understand and get involved in positive solutions to the climate crisis.Strategic messaging about the climate crisis needs to be around every corner including the corners of Web3 and yet, they are oddly absent.&nbsp;Even with a worsening situation every day, well under 1 percent of overall broadcast news coverage was devoted to climate change last year and a majority of people still report that they rarely talk about climate change with their friends and family.While the majority of people understand that climate change is real, there is still no feeling of urgency and rarely are people aware of the solutions available to us…our mission is to change that. making the solutions real and tangible for people. We need a major shift in our approach to communications around the climate crisis. In order to do that we connect the dots for people on the things that motivate them to act; finding the inroads in specific communities around urgency, step-by-step solutions, and alternatives.We “fill the gaps” by organizing and implementing the type of strategic campaigns that no one else is doing. Working both independently as well as with other nonprofits, First Nations/Native Americans, governments of all sizes and other partners to spread awareness, motivate change, find common ground and make solutions a reality.Our campaigns are local, involve existing networks and grassroots organizations and both air and ground games. We utilize digital platforms as well as traditional and in person methods to create a sense of community involvement as well as political mandate. We also work to incorporate important messaging into existing media (TV, Film, radio, podcasts etc.)What's next?We will run a Green Pill campaign in the "Web3" space focusing on converting people into solarpunks working together for a better future. This campaign will also help people understand how web3 can play a key role in making this transition possible.We will run targeted climate solutions campaigns in various locations in North America and internationally as well as producing reports outlining their impacts.We will work collaboratively with others to continue to refine best practices and resources available to help any group or individual more clearly communicate about climate change and climate solutions related to their community/Examples of Past Work:We have worked on hundreds of campaigns over the past 25 years ranging from stopping destructive mega projects at the community level to actively participating in and speaking at world summits; always with the goal of changing the conversation especially with those not already in the conversation.What problem do we address? We address the elephant in the room. Looking for ways to communicate and dialog with people about climate solutions that are usually left out of the conversation. We work with indigenous groups, immigrants, farmers and those about to be sunset out of energy jobs. We work with diversity, equity and inclusion groups as well as social and climate justice organizations. We are constantly testing what works and what doesn’t work; where the polarity lies and how to stop the divisiveness that has infiltrated every conversation.&nbsp;How we address it?Our goal through each of our campaigns is to turn apathy, fear, and discord into action, cooperation and ultimately, heroism.&nbsp;A few of our work includes;The Great Climate RaceA 10, and 2k virtual race and road race on the Vancouver waterfront and peer to peer crowdfunding web app to raise funds per mile for renewable energy projectsConversations for Responsible Economic DevelopmentBringing businesses into the climate conversation.

Overview: Building an on-chain contribution based community to incentivize participation in open-source cannabis research.Why Cannabis Genome DAO?We believe all cannabis is medicine and therefore the genetic data useful for breeding and development of new therapeutic applications should be incentivized to be available for public use.What Are We Doing?We’re building a community organized around a regenerative crypto-economic system designed to align incentives between public and private interests related to scientific cannabis research. Our plan to do this is by using a combination of well-known tools to track and reward contributions of individuals toward collectively agreed-upon goals. Our first products will be a community owned open-source data marketplace, open-access publishing server and decentralized seed bank.How Are We Accomplishing This?Platforms like SourceCred, Coordinape and DeWork can allow us to track the efforts of our community members from the very beginning; then, provide retroactive remuneration after work is completed and people have formed social trust networks that lead to fair allocation and recognition.Our partner laboratory, Delta Leaf, has an existing community of thousands of data generating cannabis cultivators who have been asking for a way to publish their data without compromising self-sovereignty.&nbsp;By establishing robust contribution tracking mechanisms for the DAO we can incentivize the creation of a community owned data marketplace, which will act as a core component in the regenerative crypto-economic platform we are working to deliver. The marketplace will subsidize the cost of fees for new users to upload and store data on-chain by charging a commission on subsequent transactions to sell or “rent” that same data. All revenue generated by commissions will go back to the DAO treasury and community to incentivize further adoption of the marketplace.&nbsp;We are currently working to establish a detailed technical roadmap for deploying our planned implementation of Ocean Market through hands-on experimentation using the Aurora testnet development environment. Additional funding will be required to continue this work and subsidize data upload/storage fees during the early stages of the marketplace. Eventually, commissions on marketplace transactions paid to the DAO treasury will regenerate and support financial reserves for ongoing maintenance of the platform and community growth.The long term goals of this project are currently identified as:Technical integration roadmap and timeline for deploying Ocean Protocol on NearOutline of onboarding experience for genetic and genomic data typesEngage our community through educational content about Ocean Protocol and how we plan to implement it.Deploy a fork of Ocean Market on the NEAR Aurora EVMDeploy Ocean smart contracts on the NEAR Aurora EVMGet $OCEAN listed on the Trisolaris DEX and Aurora websiteUse Ocean Protocol to build a data marketplace for Cannabis Genome DAO (CGD)Integrate with DAO tooling to enable community governance of key marketplace parameters such as commission ratesMerge the Ocean Market front-end with an NFT marketplace-like mobile app for CGD (e.g. Mintbase and Alga Wallet)Overall Project RoadmapCompleteLaunch Discord server: https://discord.gg/6Y6EMaQJAQ 10/8/21Launch website and email list https://cannabisgeno.me October 2021SputnikDAO launch on NEAR: October 2021Near Foundation grant award: November 2021AstroDAO frontend: November 2021Documentation on Notion and Github: December 2021Membership app and Coordinape circle launch: January 2022Ocean Market implementation on local server: February 2022Present/Interviews at EthDenver: February 2022Automated Contribution/Reputation scoring system: SourceCred March 2022Self-hosted Discourse forum: March 2022Bounty board on DeWork: March 2022In ProgressPublish formal whitepaperDeploy smart contracts on NEAR testnetRole-based governance weighting system (mechanism TBD but could include conviction/quadratic/role-boost)Reserve pool (to bootstrap marketplace)AstroDAO custom contract callsPublish blog article report on Ocean Protocol technical implementation planUpcomingDeploy Ocean Market, smart contracts and middleware on the NEAR Aurora EVM (testnet)Deploy appchain on Octopus Network (testnet)Full mainnet launch (Near, Ocean, Arweave, Octopus, mobile front-end)Merge the Ocean Market front-end with an NFT marketplace-like mobile appSubgraph for Astro DAODecentralized identity solutions (Ontology Network, BrightID, Magic)

A documentary series to mobilize for the climate emergency, produced by Frédéric Laloux (author of the bestseller book “Reinventing Organizations” that is inspiring many DAOs today) and Hélène Gérin.Who we areWe are a growing community of active citizens that take initiatives in our communities to transition to a more sustainable world. Some of us organize&nbsp;marches for the climate, others&nbsp;start community gardens, reclaim the public space,&nbsp;make movies, make art. Some create mutual aid funds to help their community after a natural disaster, others build software, ... We are all hummingbirds doing our part and we are coming together here to support each other.See also&nbsp;our shared values and principles.What we are working onA crypto climate newsletter&nbsp;to help people follow what’s happening at the intersection of climate and crypto: new projects, new job opportunities.

It is not sustainable to create a non profit entity with a bank account for every single initiative. That’s why we created a shared non profit “All for Climate” that all of us can use to raise money, get our expenses reimbursed, apply for funding, etc. Today there are more than&nbsp;130 collectives hosted by All for Climate.ContributeHave a look at the&nbsp;open roles&nbsp;or&nbsp;join us on Discord&nbsp;to share your idea or project.

The Citizen Water Observatories are the best setting of citizen participation in the water resources oversight, and therefore, the enforcement of an approach seeking the highest community commitment in the preservation and safeguard of their water sources, promoting the sense of appropriation of their rivers and brooks.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Observatories carry out the following actions:The invigoration of the National Ecological Blue Flag Program- Category V: Micro-watersheds.The mud spheres festivals for the bioremediation of polluted water bodies.The regeneration of degraded ecosystems through reforestation programs.The participatory water quality&nbsp;monitoring campaigns.Cartographic analysis at the Citizen Water Observatories’ influence areas.Oversight and safeguard of National Water Bodies’ buffer zones.Community empowerment and training in the proper use of tools for the prevention and management of climate change related effects.1. The invigoration of the National Ecological Blue Flag Program- Category V: Micro-watershedsIt is an incentive for the improvement of the micro basins' health conditions focused on those located along streams, rivers and lakes, in order to raise awareness on the avoidance and mitigation of pollution through the establishment of civil society’s local committees.It enhances the organization and empowerment of communities settled on margins of rivers, brooks and lakes for the execution of safeguard activities, identification of contamination sources and clean up tasks oriented to water quality improvement.&nbsp;It encourages better health conditions and improved public health of Costa Rica’s inhabitants.&nbsp;2. The mud spheres festivalsIt is a program aimed at Costa Rican communities in the use of bioremediation techniques as an additional tool to revert river contamination in their vicinity.Aimed at the gradual reversal of pollution in selected rivers. Each river must be assessed separately.It is oriented to accomplish the bioremediation process learning in school 's children.3. Regeneration of Degraded EcosystemsThe preservation of forest coverage benefits those who participate in the program and their communities as follows:Protects water replenishment areas in the high reaches&nbsp;Watersheds provide water for different domestic, farming and industrial uses, etc.Adds up to forested areas that strengthen biological corridors and the settlement of native forest vegetation.Improves water quality and modifies the flux time.Stabilizes soil due to the forests.Prevents floods and erosion processes along the river marginsMitigates high temperatures and CC related extreme climate events.Carbon sequestration.Biodiversity growth.Generates knowledge, raises awareness and commitment in communities towards their brooks, rivulets, rivers and water sources overall, thus promoting changes in the existing legislation.Enhances a new environmental culture through which inhabitants appropriate and compromise in the protection and management of the resources they depend on.Replication of forest coverage recovery plans to 70+ communities and 200 or more by 2025.Scientific knowledge&nbsp;and technical assistance that contributes to the development of new strategies for water bodies protection.The presence of trees along river margins have a vital effect on the running water’s temperature, and subsequently, on the reproduction and survival of fish and other species that dwell in these ecosystems.4. Participatory water quality monitoring activities&nbsp;Creates a communitarian participatory monitoring model.Resolves setbacks in human and material resources, as well as coverage problems related to monitoring sites in the country’s water bodies.Sets networks among Observatories with the purpose of generating representative and reliable water quality data in these communities.&nbsp;5. Cartographic survey in the Citizen Water Observatories’ buffer zonesGeneration of reliable, updated and standardized information on the river course and its adjacent areas.Provides input for better knowledge and decision making on rivers protection.Allows to verify whether protected areas law is enforced or not.Provides inputs for experts (Judicial Research Body (OIJ) or Municipalities)Allows the knowledge of river reaches for the protection group.&nbsp;Promotes the use of this tool for the rest of the country.6. Oversight and safeguard of protected areas in National Water BodiesLegal support to organized groups that contribute to the rivers preservation.Guarantees through formal complaints to the compliance of buffer zones boundaries or protection areas to avoid disruptions that seriously affect the biological function of the river.Legally protects water bodies as key elements for the ecosystem, thus guaranteeing the connectivity of biological corridors and the habitats it shelters.Law enforcement by administrative authorities responsible for the compliance of buffer zones and protection areas established in the legislation.Prevention of river related natural disasters (flash floods, overflows and others) from dragging along and destroying low resilience poor households.7. Empowerment and training to communities in the correct use of prevention and management tools of Climate Change related effects&nbsp;Understanding in an effective and intelligent way how weather conditions negatively or positively affect people, agriculture, water and our rivers in general.Contributing to the optimization of productive activities.Learn about the days of highest rainfall as well as wind and temperature forecasts to coordinate conservation and environmental education activities such as:Rivers cleaning campaigns.&nbsp;Bioremediation projects (Mud Spheres Festivals)River picnics&nbsp;Water Quality studies&nbsp;Fauna monitoring inventories (birds, mammals, fish, etc.)Preventing risks through better decision making at the time of executing an activity, to carry it out safely without risking people's lives exposed to natural disasters such as floods or accidents related to slippery terrains resulting from rains which could cause falls and injuries to the participants.

Trough the&nbsp;ChangemakerXchange Community&nbsp;we reach and work directly with ± 1000 changemakers across 130 countries globally, who work on a vast range of social and environmental issues, from human trafficking in the Maghreb, through eating disorders in Europe, to inter-faith dialogue in the Philippines. New members join via our flagship summits, a unique experience of connecting, co-learning and collaboration with other social innovators from around the world. This is followed by ongoing, and life-long, community engagement, capacity building and support for their work.Through our&nbsp;Facilitators for Change&nbsp;program we trained over 60 members of the community to be world-class facilitators. They now facilitate our summits and accompany other networks of changemakers in their work. Building on our learnings from working with hundreds of social innovators we also equipped over 150 civil society leaders in the facilitation skills needed to create spaces for collective impact.And last, but not least through&nbsp;The Possibilists&nbsp;we gather scientific data about the needs and challenges of young changemakers. We then collaborate towards addressing them and aim to improve the conditions for social innovators together. Collectively the Alliance reaches hundreds of thousands of young social innovators globally.

Tulum is growing at a dangerous pace. This sacred land faces irreversible damage and the threat of ecosystem collapse if business as usual continues. Unfortunately, the sustainability movement is deeply fragmented. It’s difficult to know which projects, businesses and organizations in Tulum have sustainable and regenerative values and are making a conscious attempt to embody these.Regen Tulum isa decentralized movement to support projects that restore and regenerate Tulum’s natural ecosystem, culture and economy. It serves as a platform for exposure and visibility, whilst connecting members with funding and expert help as needed.Tulumcoin is the proposal for this integration; a community DAO and cryptocurrency powered by DeFi, ReFi and human actions. Community members receive Tulumcoin for restorative and regenerative actions. These include beach clean ups, recycling, composting, community gardens, merchant onboarding. Community members also recieve Tulumcoin for supporting the DAO via tasks such as technology development, marketing, social media, content creation and others. The Tulum Coin economy will generate a revenue stream for a Tulum-focused regenerative projects fund.Regen Tulum is an impact-driven community of passionate and committed local and international individuals, creators, entrepreneurs, freethinkers, tourists, expats, natives, businesses, developers, government and other organizations. We are working together to protect Tulum´s natural resources, cultural heritage, economy and community.These projects unite all those who love and respect this bioregion connected through a common purpose, unified to protect Tulum and its surrounding areas, hence protecting ourselves. We aim for this to be a model for replication and adaptation to other locales.

Center for Effective Philanthropy

Philanthropy Together is on a mission to diversify and democratize philanthropy through the power of giving circles.What Is A Giving Circle?It's a group of people with shared values come together to make change. They pool their time and money, and decide as a circle where it should go. Their efforts, discussion, and collective gift transforms into community power, proactive change, and civic action.We are a global initiative to help start new giving circles and help existing giving circles thrive. Giving circles bring many more — and widely representative — everyday donors to the table to create equitable communities: people of color, women, LGBTQIA2S+ people, different giving capacities, youth, people in rural communities, religious minorities, and the list keeps going.Our Bold GoalsBy 2025, we aim to:Build 3,000 strong giving circlesInvolve 350,000 individualsWhat We DoPhilanthropy Together provides programs, training, resources, and mainstream attention to giving circles through a number of initiatives:Launchpad - 5-week giving circle incubator and training program to launch new giving circlesResource Library, webinars and education materials - On key topics (power sharing, evaluating impact, trust-based philanthropy &amp; grantmaking) to help strengthen the fieldGlobal Giving Circle Directory - A new tool used to help find a giving circle to joinCommunity Forum - Global hub for any leader, member, or host of a giving circle to learn together, share ideas and challenges, and ask questionsCommunities of Practice - Topical learning community for giving circle leaders (e.g. racial equity or storytelling)Showcasing and marketing to the mainstream - Elevating stories of collective giving in the news, podcasts, social media, conferences, and everywhere in betweenOur belief is that everyone can be a philanthropist.We all have something to give, whether that is time, talent, treasure, testimony, or ties. Giving circles ignite groups of people to use their resources and act generously, together. The model is growing in popularity and Philanthropy Together is proud to serve as a connector for this budding field.Importantly, our collaborative work across the field of collective giving is rooted in diversity, equity, inclusion and justice. We have built innovative programs have allowed us to scale quickly, and we are on track to meet our goals. See our Impact Report for our latest progress.

Super Typhoon Rai (locally named Odette) made landfall on 16 December 2021 in Surigao del Norte Province before crossing the central-southern Philippines, specifically the Visayas and Mindanao Islands, with maximum sustained winds of 195km/h and gustiness of 260km/h. Intensifying from a tropical storm to a super typhoon within hours, Rai brought torrential rains, violent winds, landslides and storm surges, making nine landfalls in seven provinces.The entire province of Cebu has been placed under a state of calamity due to the damage caused by Super Typhoon Rai. Thousands of people have been displaced and the entire province is facing shortages of water, with several people reported to have died from dehydration. Almost all gas stations are closed or empty, with people waiting over 48 hours to get fuel. Power has been cut and early estimates say power (and sustainable clean drinking water) won't return until February 2022 for the communities FundLife is seeking to reach.The FundLife relief and recovery fund will initially prioritise getting clean water and food to communities hardest. The most urgent need is providing communities with access to essential goods and restoring access to clean drinking water. The fund will also support keeping children safe and protected as many are displaced or without adequate shelter. The recovery will focus on restoring access to learning, education and sustainable livelihood studies to ensure children are not being exploited.

In a lot of countries educational success and career opportunities depend heavily on one’s socio-economic background. Young people from educationally disadvantaged families or with a migrational background are particularly disadvantaged. Furthermore, many educational systems (e.g. in Germany and other European countries) are very selective, allowing little educational and social mobility.At ROCK YOUR LIFE! we have been successfully working with children from underprivileged families since 2008. Helping kids to obtain proper education, finishing school and finding their first job is a major factor in tackling social inequality. We empower kids to find out who they really are and to unfold their true potential.&nbsp;We help them understand what self-efficacy really means and how they can take responsibility for their lives. To this end we establish 1-on-1 mentoring relationships between university students (mentors) and teenagers struggling to make their way (mentees).&nbsp;Our local chapters in over 52 German, Dutch, Spanish, Austrian and Swiss cities have already supported more than 9.000 children. More than 11.000 volunteers have contributed to ROCK YOUR LIFE!, making it one of Europe's largest mentoring networks. Our impact has been scientifically proved by the renowned German ifo Institute, which proved that ROCK YOUR LIFE! greatly helps its participants to unleash their potential.

Sea Of Hertz Radio is a web3 public good that brings independent music &amp; news to LatAm and Hispanic communities.Our mission is to reach a diverse spanish-speaking audience and bring independent music to web3 - SOH Radio brings new users into web3 using music as a bridge.The music industry has always been hierarchical with minimal benefits for independent musicians, because of that they struggle to get the recognition and compensation they deserve. Web3 space also has a constant need to diversify language and create spanish content for the LatAm and Hispanic communities.&nbsp;Sea Of Hertz Radio exists to satisfy two specific needs in all DAOs: education and community building. The show is broken into segments that address these needs; the first portion features a guest from a partner project’s LatAm community to share information about their work and goals. The second segment features an independent musician or band partnership, where their music is played for the audience to enjoy and engage with one another in chat. In the process, SOH Radio helps to educate and entertain web3 natives, as well as onboard new artists to the space.The funds will go to support the operations of the SOH team.Sea Of Hertz Radio es un bien publico web3 que lleva música independiente y noticias a las comunidades latinas e hispanas.Nuestra misión es diversificar el idioma español y llevar música independiente a la web3 - SOH Radio usa la música como puente para atraer a nuevos usuarios a la web3.La industria de la música siempre ha sido jerárquica y no beneficiosa para los músicos independientes, por esa razón no reciben el reconocimiento y mucho menos compensación que se merecen. A su vez hay una constante necesidad de diversificar el idioma y crear contenido en español para comunidades latinas e hispanas en web3 para que estas puedan aprender.SOH Radio satisface esas dos necesidades: educación y comunidad.El show consiste en dos segmentos: la primera parte del show consiste en traer invitados de alguna DAO u organización latina a compartir en que están trabajando, desarrollando y cuales son sus metas. En la segunda parte de este show traemos a músicos independientes a compartir su música con la audiencia. SOH Radio ayuda a educar y entretener a los usuarios y les presenta a los artistas el espacio web3.Las donaciones se utilizaran para soportar las operaciones del equipo de SOH.https://twitter.com/1HiveOrg

EVMcrispr is a tool that simplifies interacting with smart contracts on EVM-compatible chains. It allows users to send transactions using intuitive, UNIX-like commands, making it easier to write complete scripts that encode complex transactions. This comprehensive tool can be used to improve almost all day-to-day blockchain operations, such as:Creating more efficient Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) votes.Launching DAOs and managing their configuration.Performing DeFi strategies.Running simulations on drafted on-chain actions.Creating, sending and managing tokens.EVMcrispr effectively reduces the technical hurdles for web3 users to engage and carry out complex tasks using smart contracts. For instance, our domain-specific language is handy for expressing and transforming transaction data. In addition, we can combine different commands, so we can insert the command for managing Superfluid flows within the command to make an Aragon DAO vote or the command of sending a Giveth donation within the command to bridge tokens to the Gnosis Chain.It feels like modifying DNA when changing many parameters of a DAO all at once or when performing complex deployments that we must do in one transaction. EVMcrispr is the smart-contract gene-editing tool that has reduced the cost of operating DAOs and other blockchain protocols by orders of magnitude.It has been used by organizations such as Curve, Aragon, NFTX, 1Hive, Giveth, TECommons, BrightId and Agave to conduct complex votes within their DAOs.The tool has a terminal-like interface but clear documentation with many examples, making it easy to start.By supporting the ongoing development and maintenance of EVMcrispr, Giveth donors can help to advance cutting edge blockchain technology and to enable the creation of more powerful and practical applications on EVM-based networks, such as Ethereum Mainnet and Gnosis Chain.You can find the source code in this 1hive repository under the GPLv3 license.

EN: Civichub is a pre-acceleration program which has taken place twice so far. The first iteration in 2018 consisted of 6 in-person weekend sprints in the volcanic region of La Garrotxa (Girona, Catalonia), the second version of the course took place in 2020-21 online. During these two sessions, more than 40 startups, social movements, cyber activists, corporate and government teams came together to boost and cross-pollinate their civic innovation, distributed governance and decentralized technology projects. We learned about facilitation, open source hardware and software, how to decentralise organisations, how to create platform cooperatives, community resilience, the philosophical implications of AI, blockchain and Holochain, and much more. The participants were exposed to many ideas and technologies that they would probably not have encountered otherwise.These initial two iterations of Civichub were sponsored by the Catalan and local governments. Now we want to become more autonomous as a project, reduce the bureaucracy, and make the content more accessible to everyone. To do this, our plan is to put the recordings of the previous course on Udemy or a similar learning platform and make it available online for a low price. With the funds generated we hope to repeat the full course again in-person with new teachers. Your contribution will allow us to spend time editing and preparing the video course, and any surplus will go towards the next in-person version of Civichub.More details on the official website here.Videos from past editions are on the Pandorahub YouTube channel.Preview of the 2018 edition is here:ES: Civichub es un programa de preaceleración que ha tenido lugar dos veces hasta ahora. La primera iteración en 2018 consistió en 6 sprints presenciales de fin de semana en la comarca volcánica de La Garrotxa (Girona, Cataluña), la segunda versión del curso tuvo lugar en 2020-21 online. Durante estas dos sesiones, más de 40 startups, movimientos sociales, ciberactivistas, equipos corporativos y gubernamentales se reunieron para impulsar y cruzar sus proyectos de innovación cívica, gobernanza distribuida y tecnología descentralizada. Aprendimos sobre facilitación, hardware y software de código abierto, cómo descentralizar organizaciones, cómo crear cooperativas de plataforma, resiliencia comunitaria, las implicaciones filosóficas de la IA, blockchain y Holochain, y mucho más. Los participantes estuvieron expuestos a muchas ideas y tecnologías que probablemente no habrían conocido de otro modo.Estas dos iteraciones iniciales de Civichub fueron patrocinadas por los gobiernos catalán y local. Ahora queremos ser más autónom@s como proyecto, reducir la burocracia y hacer que el contenido sea más accesible para todos. Para ello, nuestro plan es poner las grabaciones del curso anterior en Udemy o en una plataforma de aprendizaje similar y hacerlo disponible en línea por un precio bajo. Con los fondos generados esperamos repetir el curso completo de nuevo en persona con nuevos profesores. Tu aportación nos permitirá dedicar tiempo a la edición y preparación del curso en vídeo, y el excedente se destinará a la próxima versión presencial de Civichub.Más detalles en la web oficial aquí.Los vídeos de las ediciones anteriores están en el canal de YouTube de Pandorahub.Un vídeo sobre la edición de 2018 está aquí:

🐙 MetaGame tl;drAt MetaGame, we believe things like Ethereum &amp; DAOs are some of the basic infrastructure pieces for socioeconomic systems of the future.We are bringing together people, knowledge, tools, building blocks &amp; DAOs to build a new kind of society.You can think of it as a real-life MMORPG with the goal of finding different ways to play life on a collective as well as personal level.MetaGame is a massive online coordination game, in its baby form.🤨 Why are we asking for funding?Right now, pretty much everyone considers MetaGame as a hobby. It's hard to retain people for long when they’re being underpaid &amp; it's hard to build anything fast if everyone is treating it as a side project. We are asking for funding to be able to guarantee paychecks to enable existing contributors to jump in full-time, hook in a bunch of new contributors and continue working on:✅ Our first product: MyMeta &amp; the minimum viable platform and make it adaptable and customizable for other projects as well (what is MyMeta)✅ Publish more educational content &amp; podcast episodes✅ Organize more events like this conference, hackathon &amp; festival✅ Continue pioneering a DAO bootstrapping/accounting/payroll system✅ Foster an awesome community &amp; a small network of projects✅ Help more people level up &amp; break into the DAO ecosystemComparison of MyMeta profile in MetaGame and customized MyMeta profile for xzyDAO🚨 What problems are we solving by doing all these?- coordination failures between people/projects/DAOs- tracking and rewarding everyone's contribution in a non-extractive way- overwhelming and complex onboarding processes in the DAO space- for people is difficult to get involved in web3🌄 Our goals, in short:- Put our &amp; other building blocks together into a coherent coordination-enabling UI- Help people solve problems &amp; build a model of what crypto societies could be like 🙃- Make it as easy and enjoyable as possible for people to get involved in the DAO spaceOur roadmap️ ﻿MetaGame for Patrons in under 5min🔗 Moar links🌱 Read all about Seeds💬 Join the Telegram group🗞️ Subscribe to the newsletter

Dappnode is a free and open source platform that allows anyone to easily deploy and run decentralized applications (DApps) and validators. By donating to Dappnode, you are supporting the development of a better user experience for the web3 ecosystem and helping to decentralize networks.The dappnode software is completely free, and more than 4000 validators in Ethereum use it to maintain their nodes running and up-to-date. Dappnode doesn't, and can't, charge anything for it because it's built with self-sovereignty and privacy by design.Currently, our focus is in lowering the capital requirement for validating PoS networks and Ethereum in particular so we bridge not only the technical gap, but also the economic gap to participate in the ownership and upside of decentralized tech.Your donations will directly impact the continued development and improvement of Dappnode, allowing us to create new features and enhancements that make it easier for users to access and use DApps. This in turn will help to further decentralize the Ethereum network and promote the use of decentralized technologies.In our quest for better User Experience in the web3 ecosystem, we've created a wealth of Open Source tools that any project can use.Keymanger API: We coordinated client implementers and stakeholders to standardize the way keys are managed between different pieces of software.Keymanager UI - a front-end that uses the Keymanager API to connect to any validator implementation and web3signer.And of course, Dappnode is completely open source too! Here's a demonstration of how easy it is to deploy all the software for running a validator:

Iran is in turmoil.Protests are breaking out all over the country, despite the fact that protesters are regularly arrested, tortured and too often die while in custody. There are so many arrests by plainclothes police officers that kidnappings are starting to happen in daylight and people simply assume it is the police. It is frankly unsafe to be in Iran right now, especially if you are in web3.Iranian tech leaders are routinely arrested and jailedThe internet has been heavily censored. Iran is using a system similar to what China uses to censor the internet, except they are being much more brutal with the enforcement related to maintaining it.Most developers working in the web3 space must use a VPN, ssh tunneling or Starlink to access the international services they need to do their job, and in doing so they are breaking laws and are at risk of being arrested. Activists in the space are especially at risk, Hossein Ronagi and Amir Emad Mirmirani (Jadi) can be mentioned as examples.Hossein RonaghiㅡA young engineer in charge of the anti-censorship committee in Iran (IranProxy) has been arrested and jailed several times. He recently escaped the clutches of plainclothes agents who broke into his home. Unfortunately, he was later arrested and unjustly imprisoned.Amir Emad Mirmirani aka Jadiㅡ A programmer and technology promoter in Iran, as well as the founder of Radio Gig Podcast has prepared thousands of hours of free online training courses for anyone interested in programming and free open-source software. He has also been one of the opponents of censorship and internet restrictions in Iran and has informed people about the issue. Jadi was abducted from his home by plainclothes agents on October 5 of this year.Zia Sadrㅡ An Iranian blockchain evangelist and lecturer was arrested and jailed late this summer.UPDATE (Dec 19, 2022)All three of the above tech leaders have been recently released. ﻿🎉﻿  International relations are getting worse.The US President, Joe Biden said, “Don’t worry, we’re gonna free Iran, they're going to free themselves pretty soon.” These are worrying times.With the general distaste for the Iranian government growing within and external to Iran, the chances of a violent revolution / civil war erupting are rising every day. This could lead to the boarders being closed and our web3 colleagues being trapped in a bad situation.It is difficult for Iranians to travel. Not only are there visa issues, but also there are social and economic issues to be considered as well.This grant hopes to alleviate the economic burden and create a supportive social network of web3 Iranians in Istanbul.We will reimburse the flights and lodging for them and their immediate family to encourage them to flee for safety before it is too late. We will also help them book accommodation their access to international banking infrastructure is obviously limited.We have helped 2 web3 community members escape Iran already and they are currently searching for a nice neighborhood in Istanbul. When they have chosen on one, we will bring as many people as possible to stay close together, so they can have regular gatherings and build strong relationships in these troubling times.Turkey only offers Iranians 90 day visas. After our community members have been there 2 months, if the situation does not seem to be getting better, we will help them find another country to go to.Maybe nothing will happen and things will calm down. This is our hope, we would excitedly take down this project, and the web3 community members that left for Turkey could return home to their local community with new friends. If this happens unused donations will be sent to donation.eth (Giveth Matching Pool).All expenditures will be documented in the updates of this project.We will make every effort to protect the identity of the web3 community members that are in Iran, many are pseudonymous and could lose their jobs if their employers find out where they live. We appreciate this and will use an encrypted form to take applications and while doing our due diligence to confirm that applicants for this subsidy work in web3 we will in no way hint to their employers that they are from Iran. We will also make sure we send reimbursement funds to a fresh Ethereum address as opposed to their public/ens address.If you are a web3 community member currently in Iran, please stay safe and consider if you can do more to support the people of Iran outside the country, than you can do protesting inside the country. If you would appreciate support in leaving the country, we are here to help! Please use this encrypted form to apply.https://form.jotform.com/223058111377047

Relocating Web3 Iranians

This project will provide basic school supplies to out-of-school children in various public schools in Oji-River. 18.5 children are out of school in Nigeria and 10.5 million children are girls. Supporting this initiative will help close the gap by helping more underprivileged children to stay in school. There will be relief on the burden of parents, who are unemployed to provide these basic essentials for underprivileged children.Helpers Social Development Foundation was established to make a difference in Nigeria. We believed that lasting change happened when children, youths and women have access to social amenities. We have touched more than 3.700 lives from different initiatives since our inception in 2016. We recently established a nursery and primary school in the Oji-River area of Enugu State with a population of 30 pupils. Helpers Foundation nursery and primary offer free education to underprivileged children. We have grown to include working with the parents of the children and the community leaders of the villages in which we operate.Why We Are Working Hard We distribute free school supplies to underprivileged children in 20 public schools in Enugu state to keep them in school. We attack are the root cause of factors that stand as barriers to underprivileged children's education so that underprivileged children can access free and quality education and realize their full potential.Where And Challenges This is truly a trying time for underprivileged Nigerians as many people have lost their jobs due to the Covid-19 pandemic. 18.5 million children dropped out of school, and 10.5 million are girls, they struggle daily for not having the stools needed to help them in school. Poverty regardless of level is linked to reduced academic achievement. Students who live in poverty come to school every day without the proper tools for success, as a result, they are commonly behind their classmates physically, socially, and emotionally. Help us to reach out to millions of out-of-school children.SolutionHow can we use crypto to narrow the performance gap in children's education?

The Giveth Matching Pool is raising funds for future donation matching to verified projects on Giveth! It is a one-stop-shop for donors who want to ensure their donation has a broad impact.Our vision for the Future of Giving is a world in which giving is effortless and people are rewarded for making positive change. Give to donation.eth, make a difference for public goods, and get rewarded with GIVbacks.Donations to this project as well as funds sent directly to the donation.eth multisig on Mainnet or Gnosis Chain are eligible for GIVbacks. In both cases, 100% of the funds collected will be distributed to verified projects on Giveth. Note: only donations in tokens on the GIVbacks token list are eligible for GIVbacks.The donation.eth multisig is a 7/15 multisig managed by core Giveth team members. Once we have reached our goal of $500,000 we will begin to distribute the funds to verified projects on Giveth at the end of each 2-week donation round.The intention of the raise goal is to ensure we have enough funds to provide significant matching ($10-20k) every 2 weeks for a full year (26 total rounds). The exact details of how the donations will be distributed are to-be-determined.&nbsp;If you want to help us design the system for allocating these matching funds, please weigh-in with your comments in our forum. We’ll keep you posted with the results in project updates!Note: We are not matching funds to this project, we are using these funds to provide additional funding to other verified projects.

The Crypto Commons Association (CCA) is a non-profit organization founded in early 2021 to facilitate the development of digital common goods and infrastructure in the context of DLTs, their academic reception and analysis, their public accessibility as well as their broad social application. It strives to reach its aims through the organization of events, the production of a full feature documentary and the operation of a permanent physical Hub-as-a-Commons.Your support at this stage is crucial! We got plenty of plans for next year, we know that there‘s interest in what we want to provide, but we need a little more runway before things really kick off and the CCA becomes self-sustainable.Hub-as-a-CommonsWe cannot stress enough the importance of informal conversations in the in-betweens, the deep feeling of community birthed by temporary living-as-a-commons, and the serendipity that only emerges over time in physical proximity. For this reason we think it’s fundamental to have a physical place in which to make people interact in real life. From next spring on, the diverse decentral communities populating our field will have a temporary home in the Austrian Alps, co-created and -governed by its tenants in the spirit of commoning.In other words: We are building the first explicit Crypto Commons Hub in the world!Crypto Commons DocumentaryHeaded by Filmmaker Oliviero Di Lanzo and podcast host The Blockchain Socialist, the CCA is producing a full feature documentary on Crypto in a quest to highlight the post-capitalist potential germinating in its long tail. Starting from the Crypto Commons Gathering, our team visits people, projects and events all over the globe in a process of weaving individual stories into an emerging narrative, displayed in the first full feature Crypto Commons Documentary ever filmed!EventsWithout going much into detail, a few of the events we are planning for next year:ReFi Unconference: Unfucking the planet, one tx at a time. 60 participants, 7 days, end of AprilOURverse Hackathon: Geeking around with ~40 nerds, VR glasses, a 3D model of the house and lots of hardware to build interfaces. 10 days, date TBA.La Moneta del Comune: 8 years after CommonCoin: revisiting early attempts at creating common money. 5 days, ~50 participants, beginning of JulyCrypto Commons Gathering '22: Reunion of the family! 60 Commoners, 7 days, #RealValue end of AugustContacts and groupsMail : cryptocommonshub@protonmail.comTelegram : t.me/joinchat/Vcg9sAXnJ1XY5BBnTwitter : https://twitter.com/CCommonsHub Website : https://www.crypto-commons.org/

Commons Stack is raising funds to cover the costs of launching new Commons, continuing to evolve our Technical and Cultural Builds, developing protocols that can be open-sourced so any community can deploy a Commons using our design patterns, and our general operational costs.What is Commons Stack?We, Commons Stack, started as a think-tank primarily focused on crypto-economic primitives to underpin a design framework for a Commons, a tokenized community with a mission benefitting a public good. We aspired to scale commons as a way to realign incentives with public goods. To achieve this, we needed to elaborate cultural designs that reinforce commoning principles and create novel tools such as the Augmented Bonding Curve (ABC), Conviction Voting and the Praise reward and reputation system.&nbsp;Our Commons design pattern is a curated library of tools and processes for governance, funding, proposal, analytics and initialization of a Commons. Some have come straight out of our research collaborations -&nbsp; such as the ABC, CV and the Praise reward system - while others were chosen from those available in the web3 tooling marketplace. To&nbsp;really understand what we are trying to build, try out the Commons Simulator: https://sim.commonsstack.org/We see the work of Elinor Ostrom as our North Star and set out to weave her principles of governing commons into the cultural fabric of a Commons. Our Cultural Build defines practices for clear boundaries, conflict resolution, monitoring, participatory decision-making, as well as others.&nbsp;Among our milestones are supporting BlockScience in open-sourcing cadCAD, developing the edutainment program Commons Simulator, launching the Trusted Seed, developing a collaborative economics method, deploying the Token Engineering Commons (TEC) - the first field test for our Commons design patterns, launching the Commons Prize and starting our commons collaboration with Grassroots Economics, the winner of the prize.While we have already had some success, we have only just begun. Our research continues. The lessons learned from a first field test, the Token Engineering Commons (TEC), are being rolled into new deployment protocols and our curated commons library of tools and processes continues to evolve.&nbsp;We did not get this far alone. We have collaborated with BlockScience, Blossom Labs, Metagov, Curve Labs, PrimeDAO, Giveth, 1Hive, Aragon, Token Engineering Academy, Token Engineering Commons, and many others.

The StoryTrusted Seed is a global network of trusted actors who apply wisdom, expertise, and capital to early-stage web3 Commons committed to creating regenerative economies for public goods.In September 2022, we joined researchers, community stewards, and web3 founders at Crypto Commons Hub and discussed the future of commons. Our vision, Protopia, was based on two key trends: our ability to organize inside and to connect outside. We used Burning Man’s Playa as an example of interactions we want to build and Metamodern as a guiding philosophy.We believe that stewards (servant leaders, community managers, HR personnel, coaches, and facilitators) are the key to turning our vision into reality. Given this, we sense that now is the moment for the leadership development of Web3 stewards, with help from the angels (founders, sponsors) in our ecosystem.Thus, we’ve created the Trusted Seed Unconference as a space to bring us together and support our growth as future leaders of a protopian world.ExperienceWhat is an Unconference?Unconference is a non-traditional event that has an open agenda and allows participants to co-create its format. The agenda is created by the attendees at the beginning of the program. Anyone who wants to initiate a discussion on a topic or any activity can claim a time and a space.Example of the unconference organization✍ Understand the theme: ProtopiaIn its original, minimalist — and admittedly rather lacking — formulation by Kevin Kelly, Protopia is simply a term that denotes the gradual improvement of society over time, without claiming either perfection or the reaching of a point of stability.If we cannot allow ourselves to believe in a future paradise that has stabilized around a blissful state of affairs (Utopia), and we find it insufficient to look for those beautiful little exceptions of what life and society can be in certain regards under specific circumstances (Eutopia), perhaps we can more cautiously and realistically allow hope and faith in gradual but over time substantial improvements of society. As mentioned earlier, Kelly views such a capacity to improve as the true opposite of Dystopia.Some inspiration from Monika Bielskyte about Protopia and its framework:PLURALITY — BEYOND BINARIESCOMMUNITY — BEYOND BORDERSCELEBRATION OF PRESENCEREGENERATIVE ACTION &amp; LIFE AS TECHNOLOGYSYMBIOTIC SPIRITUALITYCREATIVITY &amp; EMERGENT SUBCULTURESEVOLUTION OF VALUES — CULTURE OF CONTRIBUTIONWhat are the goals?Build connections and partnerships between stewards and organizations in our ecosystemHelp stewards learn new tools and build or improve their skillsNurture a sense of belonging and form a shared identity in our communityProvide inspiration and emotional supportWhat’s on the agenda?Webinars and workshops –&nbsp;propose a session and activity you’d like to organize through the formNetworking – we’ll have some mixers and activities to boost connectionsProject Showcase –&nbsp;pitch your project and get feedbackReading sessions –&nbsp;read and discuss relevant books or articles with a groupWho’s invited?Public good foundations (e.g. Wikimedia, Ethereum, P2P Foundation)Communities &amp; hubs (e.g. CryptoCommons, AKASHA, Decentralized Science)ReFi (e.g. VitaDAO, grassroots economics, ReFi Summer)Academia (e.g ETH Zurich, Stanford, RadicalxChange)Web3 service providers (e.g. Opolis, BrightID, Aragon Network)Web3 developers (e.g. BlockScience, Curve Labs, General Magic)How do we do it?Registration is now OPEN to Stewards and Angels. You can propose and lead an activity/event, or register yourself as a participant or sponsor/donor. We will contact you with the next steps after you register. The earlier you register, the sooner we can begin launching your proposed activity or event.We will collaboratively build the curriculum/agenda based on the registration results (e.g. skills gaps, shared topics and proposed activities) as we receive the forms.The Gardeners will help in organizing, coordinating and promoting each activity or event. Individual invitations will be sent to those who signed up for the Unconference.Activities, events and sessions can be held from October until mid-December. These sessions may be recorded and documented.After the last event/activity of the Unconference is completed, we will gather the documentation and prepare them for distribution. We will also do a retrospective to assess your experience and what we may improve in the future.How to contribute?✅ Engage as you like – there would be a bunch of different events and opportunities with recaps and reminders for your comfort🎁 Give first – let’s practice gift economy, propose the agenda (registration is here), coach and support your peers👩🏽‍🏫 Be open – there’s an abundance of good ideas if you’re ready to take or give🙏 Praise - Acknowledge all kinds of contributions to this program and our community🤣 Have fun – always important, let’s play and take it easy💭 Provide your thoughts – we are open to feedback and suggestionsWhat do I get?Access to inspirational and smartest people in the space during the programSkills development and new tools (even toolboxes)Better working opportunities (there’s always demand for great talent)A feature and feedback on your work, project and ideasEmotional and intellectual support with your challengesPotential access to funding opportunities in selected Impact DAOs

Trusted Seed Unconference

Contribute towards legal efforts that will outline how to best navigate US sanctions against Iran to include Iranians in Web3. Iran is going through a critical time: the current mass movement and the violent response by the government in power makes the population increasingly vulnerable and in need of access to blockchain native tools. Who in crypto hasn't heard of, or been concerned about, sanctions violations? The aversion to this risk is so high, that instead of applying the law, the crypto space became a victim of overcompliance (all while remaining a grey legal area), resulting in the unfair discrimination of Iranian users. Popular Web3 platforms and services have poorly rejected and banned Iranian users citing US sanctions as a reason. In an effort to avoid this risk, the crypto space is now trending towards overcompliance to the extent of racism. This is unfortunate since Iranian users have always been a part of the crypto communities, experience ongoing internet shut-downs, and are geo-blocked from accessing basic crypto tools like digital non-custodial wallets. But excluding Iranians from tools that are in existence to exactly alleviate repression and censorship is counter productive to the mission of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and crypto in general. Yet, no formal legal guidelines exist regarding Iranians and their possible relationship to educational and web3 projects (for more information on this see: https://techcrunch.com/2021/12/21/borderless-crypto-networks-wrestle-with-state-sanction-compliance/) Help us fund and draft guidelines with experts in the field of sanctions on the scope of economic sanctions against Iran and how best to navigate them within the crypto decentralized space. Let’s collectively understand the risks, the scope and the requirements for compliance to US economic sanctions against Iran in order to surgically address compliance needs instead of implementing unreasonable and discriminative blanket bans based on nationality, language, etc. Understanding the regulatory ever-evolving landscape is no easy task. The latest positive development in the field is the September 2022 US Treasury Issued a General License to Increase Support for Internet Freedom for Iranian users (https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy0974), which broadened up possibilities related to Iran but which was not studied nor implemented in Web3 to our understanding. We are seeking funding and all other forms of support to create clear guidelines on what tools and services are possible to offer to Iranians. We hope to cover the question of sanctions with regards to the following fields within Web3: educational content in Farsiprovision and usage of communication and collaboration toolsservices offered at no-cost (no monetary transactions involved, “no-cost services”)“Provides additional authorization for the services that support the communication tools to assist ordinary Iranians in resisting repressive internet censorship and surveillance tools deployed by the Iranian regime.”decentralized services (such as; digital identity, DeFi, NFT, wallets, miners/validators, etc) We are looking for crypto lawyers, regulators and whomever else can assist us in creating rules that safeguard Iranian users from risk aversion discrimination. If you or someone you know is committed to making the vision of a decentralized and inclusive web a reality and want to support this cause, please get in touch with us in the comments here or email us at lets@disobey.monster. We will regularly update you on the project, and share a draft for iterations. The ‘Collective for Freedom and Decentralisation’ is a group of cypherpunk crypto OGs, partnered with ‘Women in Blockchain Farsi’, a group that successfully works on inclusivity and education in the space.

Public Nouns (https://publicnouns.wtf/) exists to promote, fund, and proliferate aligned projects that focus on serving our public.Inspired greatly by Nouns DAO and the mechanisms it’s pushed forward, Public Nouns is a project that leverages these awesome mechanisms to help fund Public Goods and experimentation thereof.Borrowing from the Charity:Water model, Public Nouns has a goal to fund any operational expenses separate from the funds that go into the Public Nouns DAO treasury.&nbsp;&nbsp;By supporting Public Nouns Operations, you help allow 100% of funds that go into the Public Nouns DAO treasury via sales of Public Nouns to be used towards Public Goods and experimentation thereof.Public Nouns launched at the end of September, and has raised over 165 ETH in its first 70 sales of Public Nouns.&nbsp;&nbsp;Docs: https://docs.publicnouns.wtf/Manifesto: https://docs.publicnouns.wtf/manifestoFunding OperationsThe Public Nouns Operations will be funded out of pNounders.eth multisig.&nbsp;Funding into pNounders.eth would planned to be used for things like:Kickstarting some early experimentationBots set-upStarting iteration on governance and research (interested in exploring things like RageQuit into Public Nouns)Proliferating the Public Noun meme from the start, for Public Goods sake of courseRetroactive to contributorsHosting and ongoing maintenanceEnsure Public Nouns is well supported to startSuccessThere are varying degrees of success when it comes to deploying a new project. While success could be as minimal as being net positive $1 in favor of Public Goods versus what it cost to launch, we’re setting our sights much higher. We’re setting out to gamify the funding of Public Goods using the proven flywheel mechanism of Nouns, and then iterate beyond on creative ways to continue funding Public Goods.

Cryptomurals is a blockchain-based platform focused on promoting and preserving the best street art worldwide, making it accessible as a public good.Our mission is to preserve the cultural heritage with interactive web3 dApps and bring artists and active citizens together to build inclusive environments in public spaces.The project was started as an EthGlobal finalist at the Web3Jam Hackathon in November 2021 and since then it has been iterating a lot always in head of Nats Giraldo a.k.a @0xnats and recently joined Joanna Caraballo a.k.a @jojoliciosa&nbsp;1. CryptomuralsCryptomurals aims to be a living archive in the Ethereum blockchain that allows navigating the history of all the layers of murals painted over the years on the same wall - we call it "The Wallchain".&nbsp;Cryptomurals public gallery will be the digital home to curated geolocated murals, with a dynamic map that allows exploring cities in gamified street-art huntings.2. Collaborative experiencesWe believe that art is for everyone.&nbsp;Cryptomurals run local initiatives to support artists to create murals and tokenize their artworks in cities around ETH community events.&nbsp;3. Street art hunters communityOur platform will allow a collaborative process where individuals provide insights on the state of the artworks by city, securing the preservation of the heritage and keeping the archives updated.&nbsp;The community will collaborate asynchronously in challenges around inclusion, culture promotion, and web3 adoption initiatives to fund street art as a public good while playing around.It's a tool that can be used by anyone who wants to make their city a more beautiful place.A geolocation-based scan system will allow participants to claim new murals and unlock exclusive content such as animations, AR experiences, or soul-bonds NFTs.&nbsp;4. The future of CryptomuralsCities and art festivals can integrate Cryptomurals as the leading platform to archive the cultural heritage of the murals in their location. We want to make it easy for anyone to use web3 tools to share their local murals with others worldwide.&nbsp;Insights in the Cryptomurals platform will nurture the community's collective intelligence and the decision-making around local-run initiatives. Opportunities can include quadratic voting to promote new murals geolocations or support the renovation of existing spots.We are a group of street artists and tech enthusiasts from Latin America who believe in inclusion thanks to art workshops and renovation of public spaces such as basketball yards, Sk8 parks, etc.&nbsp;We believe in street art as a public good.&nbsp;5. ContributionsWe're thrilled to share that we're making progress with our mission.&nbsp;Along with Devcon and the ETH Colombia community, we had built Cryptomurals graffiti tours with the Cryptomurals Street Art Hunt experience for #DevconVI visitors. Participants can discover Bogotá and unlock exclusive content in our genesis. The experience is created by us and developed thanks to the support of Doingud.&nbsp;We're excited to continue on this journey with the progressive support of our community, and we hope you will join us in our quest to extend the values of decentralization to fund public goods.Please contact us and jump into our Twitter and Instagram @cryptomurals to see the murals we started geolocating in Bogotá for DEVCON VI and Medellin during EthMedellin !See you on the streets,Your CM crew

Hi there!We are a small team of developers that put an aim of creating a next gen giving platform that will be at least 99% effective, 100% transparent and will save lives for real. It means that donations must go directly on saving lives and not on administrative costs. It also means that everything we do must be open to public, including money movements.We decided to start with undeveloped counties without free healthcare from the government. Right now we work in Senegal, Guinea and Guinea-Bissau in West Africa. In the future we plan to operate in Cambodia, Kenya, Nigeria &amp; Liberia.&nbsp;This is how it works now:1. We connect volunteers, charities and hospitals We target a poor region and work on building a local network. Every member is being verified and thus can be trusted.&nbsp;2. Find kids who need urgent medical helpVolunteers meet those who are in need of urgent medical help but can’t afford it. They check their background to make sure that this is a case for the Helpster program. Depending on what medical help is needed they put the kid in the list and send to a hospital.3. Hospitals treat the kids&nbsp;for freeHospitals have the real-time Helpster waiting list. Kid in the list receive all the necessary medical help, including urgent surgeries. When a life is saved hospitals put all the reports and bills in our system and donors receive a report with all the evidence.4. We send 100% of donations to pay those billsHospitals have a special Helpster deposit account from which they cover the bills. We make sure that everything is transparent and double checked.For now we have 7 kids from West Africa that were approved for a waiting list with approx costs of 10 000 $. Doctors decided in which order help should be given, not us. Every life is sacred. Kids move up automatically in the list depending on how fast we donate.Please more details and our waiting list at our website: https://helpster.charityWe would be very happy if you supported the kids because they deserve it.Please take a note that we are still in a testing mode but we will provide all the reports in due time on your email. As said, we will not hold any donations for operations. We work for free to make the world a better place.With love,your Helpster team.

We operate in the space where public goods and private ownership meet personal responsibility and collective power.The DBC is a nested set of entities both public and private that work together as a whole to advance our capacity for coordination toward creating a vibrant and resilient network of local economies.We are so grateful for every giver and everything given that has allowed us to be in service to this mission! Your donations to the DBC in 2023 support regenerative livelihoods for our stewards, provide materials for restorative earthworks projects, and fund scholarships for participants who would not otherwise have access to the transformative experiences and education programs offered.The DBC hosted our network partner Bloom International's 2022 retreat, and organized a tour of the many initiatives, lands and people that have been incubated through the Collective.For greater transparency and accountability with our donations as well as to show and tell of our accomplishments more regularly, we recently released a YouTube channel filled with impactful and educational content, and a public website to demonstrate our decentralized governance practices for approving activities and allocating resources.Check out our Forum and Calendar for more details!  We prioritize the transcendence of land “ownership” and actively transform our contractual agreements toward land "donorship", choosing instead to be stewards of nature and the gifts bestowed unto us for future generations. This dream was made real in 2022, with the Diamante Luz Regenerative Living Center being donated by the title holder into a private perpetual Land Trust! Several land nodes are ready to follow suit using our 7 Stages of Stewardship model of acquiring beneficial interest. First order of business in 2023 is the receiving of land use rights by the DBC for establishing a public intercultural commons.Our self-organizing collective of radically responsible individuals has actualized in the past 2 years an intentional community, an activation hub, a non-profit association, a public commons, a landing pad, a leaping point, and given hundreds of people big warm welcome home to heaven on earth hugs!We govern ourselves using Sociocracy as a tool, honoring the diversity of perspectives within our collective and ensuring space for all voices during decision making processes. In late 2021 the DBC spun up a Costa Rica-registered social impact organization, el Asociacion Puente Diamante, with 26 founding members. Our 2022 Annual Membership Meeting brought official membership to 45 including new talent on the Board!The Diamante Bridge Collective is a decentralized village, with many permaculture and agricultural farms, intentional communities and retreat centers, shared homes and private casitas, co-working hubs and collaborative spaces at various stages of development.We are all bridges to what we are becoming, and we each bring valuable wisdom, experience and gifts to share with the world.. and we do that one relationship at a time by both reaching out and welcoming in. We invite you to reach out, explore what opportunity the collective may hold for you in the fulfillment of your own destiny.. receive the offerings shared already, and consider giving back to those here now building forward, for those who will come after.

🧐 What is Urbánika?Urbánika teaches about the intersection of Web 3.0 and regenerative urban governance. Our immersive approach focuses on turning the learning experience from a passive video course watching to gamifying impact-making in both local and digital communities.🤔Why?Three reasons.The mainstream education and media have convinced people all around the world that capitalism is the only way forward! However, the truth is that There Are Many Alternatives!! (TAMA)Humans are lacking inspiration and knowledge on alternative ways of governance, management, and relating.Traditional education systems are B O R I N G.💡Solution			PLUS Connecting them all with funding mechanisms, such as Giveth, Gitcoin, and Urbánika's own fund distribution system* 🛠️What are we working on?Three things.1. Commons 101 with David Bollier. This is the basic course on the Commons.This course covers:What are the commonsThe patterns of the commons (Social life, P2P governance, and Provisioning for the commons)Web3, Wallets, DAOs, and dAppsFunding the commonsWhen? End of November.2. Specialized courses for activists, entrepreneurs, and policymakers (accessible only after graduating from the "Commons 101" course)3. Mini-educational videos posted on Twitter.🧑🏾‍🤝‍🧑🏻How is this immersive?Apprentices get a Skill badge when they test their understanding of each module with 101.xyz quizzesApprentices take both in real-life and virtual challenges through QuestChains so to get a PostCapitalist adventurer collectible. These challenges require the apprentice to generate a tangible impact in its community. Some examples of challenges are: Record yourself teaching two friends about the Commons, Research an urban commons in your region and post a half-page of it at your nearest bus stop, and plant a native fruit tree at your closes park. Apprentices and social media followers get Eureka moments through watching our mini videos that show the consequences of choosing capitalism or postcapitalism as ways of living.Context:We believe that urban commons combined with the power of cyber-physical organizations such as DAOs and the proper token engineering will efficiently run cities. A very early empiric experiment about this was run in 2018-2019 in the city of Chetumal. The result was getting 23 people from across the government, universities, NGOs, business chambers, and citizens coming up with projects to regenerate their city. However, coordination failed due to starting from a city perspective when neighborhoods had different interests, tech interfaces were difficult to use, and the team didn't have the proper knowledge, just the will.The lesson was learned and these people have gathered again, now with a greater understanding of urban commons, human coordination technologies, and matured networks of public good and crypto-commoning activists.🧠 Tell me more about the training contentThe training's content is based on the book "Free, Fair, and Alive" by David Bollier and Silke Helfrich, and on personal experience engaging in DAOs and using blockchain4good dApps.The challenges within the episode start in the realm of understanding, reflecting, and becoming aware of the commoner inside each of us, then they advance into claiming, regenerating, and maintaining local public spaces as local urban DAOs that bootstrap local regenerative initiatives with the neighborhood and other local agents' support.As we are covering three niches (Policy makers, Entrepreneurs, and Urban activists) the challenges in each module will be several so apprentices can choose which one to solve based on their skills and interests. They will require to pass only one challenge per module, and one final graduation challenge. We believe in Open Knowledge. Thus, all the content created is being done using Creative Commons 4.0, meaning is free and for public access. The course will be available in the original language of the speaker with subtitles in English and Spanish.A SolarPunk styleInitially, Kin, the main SolarPunk character, will be focusing on Latin America and the Caribbean, however, the storyline will show in shadows other unrevealed characters that are doing the same in other parts of the world. The idea is that Urbánika's story and challenges call people to form a fandom. Social movements based on shared interests and fun have the power to quickly adopt new trends, which in this case is adopting regenerative and post-capitalistic lifestyles. We hope, that others can join us, create new characters, and spread the word of the commons!Kin, the SolarPunk agent sent by the Galactic Federation to accelerate the transition to a regenerative and post-capitalist society.🏆TeamThe team members are passionate activists from Mexico and Europe, with a digital and physical reputation track that has enabled them to have leading roles in innovative communities globally.Anna Kaic: Creative, storyteller, and marketeer.

Project manager, community teacher, virtual producer, and futuristic solarpunk.Pedro Mendoza: Animation engineer taking care of the 1st episode.David Bollier: Mentor and instructor of the Commons 101 course.💸 Budget&nbsp;Up to now, we have received around $10,000 in Gitcoin and $3,000 in Giveth. Additionally, we have put around $4,000 in cash from our budget, plus the work the team has provided without payment for already two months. The team has proven to be completely committed to propagating an alternative way of living, but we are running very low on our savings. Here is where you can make a huge difference. If you have arrived at this point, we ask you three simple things:Give a heart to our project. It makes our project go higher on the discovery page.Donate whatever you can. We are a verified project, and we are invested in turning your financial support into high impact.Share about Urbánika. Even a tweet saying: "Do you know about the immersive activism school of Urbánika? Check them out in @Givethio!" It makes a huge difference!!Complementarily we are putting in place an economic model to sustain our efforts.Our goal is to make the most impact possible, therefore Urbánika will invite those people that have the biggest potential to successfully apply the knowledge learned in our course to shape their local context.

Our limited attention is given to cohorts of 30 people. This is to ensure that the treatment and accompanying are extraordinary.

The cost of creating the course and providing so close attention is $15,000 in total or $500 per person (30 students).
🌻 So, what about the business model? Experimenting with regenerative and post-capitalistic ones!As we are focusing on creating open, free, and engaging educational content that accelerates societal’s transition to post-capitalism. We have been tinkering with potential ways to fund Urbánika's development. We have come up with the following:1️⃣ Value-aligned sponsorship. Urbánika will look for organizations or collectives that are willing to sponsor the student’s cost. The student can also decide to pay for its own cost.2️⃣ Value-aligned service offerings. From scripting to animating and video editing, we can help other mission-driven orgs narrate stories and educational content that helps in reaching a brighter, fairer, and safer future.3️⃣ Gift economy-based consultation hours. Our team's knowledge and experience are extended to support others.Our income surplus...&nbsp;Students, professors, and the Urbánika team will have governance rights on deciding where to allocate the following funds:   *Urban Commons funding (40%). Financially support the emergence and consolidation of urban regenerative initiatives from the graduates of the course series.*Common-good emergence and consolidation (25%). Financially support common-good initiatives such as universal basic income, universal basic services, and others through Gitcoin, Giveth, and Goteo.&nbsp;*Workers' benefits (25%). Experiment with a post-capitalist economic model to sustain its purpose while taking care of its workers and supporting complementary value-aligned efforts.&nbsp;*Research, Development, and Knowledge Propagation (10%). Urbanika's purpose is to disseminate the knowledge and tools that facilitate our transition into a regenerative interplanetary species, for that we need to research, upskill, and experiment.Additionally, the students, professors, and the team will have governance rights on curating which content should be added or modified in the curricula, as well as in the creation of new courses.The funds coming from crypto are publicly available through analyzing the Urbanika.eth wallet. The funds coming in fiat are openly available through the Open Collective's report.Once we have a steady income, we will issue a consolidated report on how the funds are being managed.✅ Monitoring and Metrics:-Monitoring-Weekly Twitter threads on our progress so far.Monthly Twitter Spaces with the Crypto Commons Association where progress is shared in a Ask Me Anything (AMA) style.-Metrics-Main success indicator: Number of urban commons created across Latin America coming from the graduated apprentices.Secondary success indicators: Video content's number of views; Number of people finishing the 101.xyz exams; Number of people finishing the QuestChains' immersive challenges.⚖️ Legal setup &amp; considerations for the projectThe equipment owned and content generated will be governed by its workers aka The Team through a legally recognized cyber physical org (Production Cooperative legally constituted in Chetumal, México with a digital twin as a DAO. The guild will be the main operator of the funds).The content will be created through Creative Commons 4.0.💖 Please support us with three quick things:A heart ♥ on the project,Donating to it,and sharing it wherever you can.These things will already be doing world-impact.

Welcome to the Giveth House! ﻿🦄﻿A beautiful home, office, and community space located in Barcelona. The Giveth House has been available since 2017 to accommodate the greater Giveth community. When Giveth was founded in 2016, we knew it would be important to have a physical space to help facilitate the growth of Giveth. We also wanted the Giveth house&nbsp;to give the greater Web3 community a real location for events, gatherings, coworking, hack sessions and just a place to rest your weary head.Why Barcelona? Impassioned by first hand experiences of the Catalan struggle for independence, Giveth founders wanted to establish a local haven that represents freedom of thought and choice, and serve as a physical space to exercise that freedom. We are open to and inclusive of all walks of life that have equality, safety, comradery, freedom from tyranny, hierarchy and subservience in their philosophy.&nbsp;Until now we have sustained the Giveth House successfully through a revenue stream that has unfortunately recently diminished due to changes in the Ethereum network and market. We are asking for the support of the community at large to keep this wonderful IRL solar punk nexus alive!Centrally located near Plaça d'Espanya with easy access throughout the city and beach, the Giveth House welcomes anyone in the blockchain4good ecosystem who needs a place to stay, work or just hang out while in town. We want the space eventually to grow into an increasingly dynamic and regenerative locale where we can hold events for the different projects and become a strategic point to exchange ideas,&nbsp;create, and contribute to the community.Please support the Giveth House and help us maintain this gentle and warm, and open-door safe haven for the solar punk community that connects&nbsp;the greater Giveth ecosystem!

Vivero is a participatory giving trust and functional concept application developed in collaboration with the Earth Regenerators, Possible Planet, and Serve.You can join the app and participate at https://app.vivero.co.comIn daily life, a Vivero is a tree or plant nursery where fragile seedlings and cuttings are propagated, protected, and nurtured until they are ready to be planted in their final habitat.In the Earth Regenerators network, Vivero serves as a community-funded treasury, enabling participatory budgeting and community-led giving and grantmaking toward individuals, fellowships, projects, and social enterprises.In 2021, the Earth Regenerators Fund was formed to do fundraising, participatory budgeting, and allocate grants. It's led us to understand what works, partner with a non-profit organization, Possible Planet, and resulted in the co-creation of Vivero – a new app to enable collective fund accounting and some social features to support and direct regenerative projects.What is the Earth Regenerators network?The Earth Regenerators network is an online community, rooted in the care and stewardship of Earth, working toward a global network of bioregional learning centers - what we lovingly call Ecoversities.How is it operating?As a legal structure and a fund, Vivero is a fiscal sponsorship of Possible Planet, a New Jersey registered 501(c)(3) organization focused on ecological stewardship and community resilience building, offering fiat donors in the United States potential tax deductions.How is it constructed?Vivero was built in collaboration with Serve Commons PBC, a public benefit company based in North Carolina, focused on trust technologies for community finance. Similar to a DAO, but built with "Web2" technologies, Serve helped construct Vivero as a desktop and mobile app (built with Glide) to organize the community around focus areas, nominate potential beneficiaries, and keep track of accounting for the fund. Contributions to the shared treasury are facilitated by Stripe and OpenCollective and integrated into the application for transparency. As fiscal host, Possible Planet acts as trustee, managing funds on behalf of the Earth Regenerators network.How is Vivero a cryptobridge?What makes Vivero unique is its relationship to digital tokens (also called cryptocurrencies). By leveraging a community investment (staking) position as a ground layer for our grantmaking pool and community treasury, we are able to recreate the dynamics of an endowment fund, which typically relies on public market investments to grow capital. It is this dynamic that allows Vivero to be regenerative - growing within and alongside the crypto-economic systems through reciprocity and the creation of mutual benefits.By offering a fiat onboarding via Stripe, and directing contributions (in part) to a crypto-backed treasury, we are able to expand web3 benefits to an audience that may have otherwise never heard of crypto, opening the door to curiosity.As a crypto-native treasury, Vivero grows through the collection, re-stake, and eventual gift of tokens. Currently, we are using the $REGEN token, on the Cosmos network, and of course $GIV.Learn more about Vivero from the Earth Regenerators at https://earthregenerators.org/vivero/

Taking a comprehensive approach to women-led initiatives: inspiring women to enter our world and making space for what they bring! A public good. We are seeking 10 partners at $100,000 each to form a $1M fund. Smaller donations are also welcome. We can begin formative work on the project with as a little as $25,000.Meta Gamma Delta has a track record of giving grants to women-led projects in Web3 since its summoning at ETHDenver in 2019. This is a $1M fund to expand that effort: at the heart of it, if we want to empower women by supporting their initiatives, we're going to need to open the door to more women. We propose to create an end-to-end solution that attracts more women into the space, creates opportunities for them to succeed and opens the way for the blossoming of the ecosystem. We see this as an essential public good. After all, the best solutions to the widest problem set will come from diverse people and perspectives. It's not only how you coordinate, but who's in the room when you do.We believe that to really move the needle, we need an end-to-end solution:Find potential new talent, and knock down their barriers to entryProvide robust educational opportunities through scholarships with major educational partners. (In 2021, Consensys provided scholarships for 10 Meta Gamma Delta members to Consensys Developer Bootcamp, an inspiring model.)Create or partner on a basic income program that supports women while they are gaining skills and onboarding (3-6 months for women who are accepted into the program).Provide mentorship and other resources from Meta Gamma Delta and partners.Through these partnerships and our network, help with job placement upon completion of the program.Continue to support women-led initiatives and startups, creating a wider footprint by actively sourcing more projects through hackathons and by other means.MGD has been an all-volunteer operation. To deliver on a project of this magnitude, we will need to conduct a discovery phase, create paid workstreams, recruit skilled workers and create a pilot program to test the concept:Create a pilot program for 3-5 women for the first round of the programPartnership developmentProgram development: develop structure around the path from onboarding through education to job placement or startup initiative, and create paths for developers as well as some specific non-technical paths in areas of need for the ecosystem: marketing, project management, business development, etc.Recruiting program including incentives and bounties, actively identifying good candidates from traditional companies, educational institutions, or related fields, and attracting them to apply.Documentation of all of the above, with detailed milestones and budget for successive phases.Success metrics and questionnaires for an ongoing assessment of the program.Evaluate and apply innovative compensation models and universal basic income programsWe expect to spend about $25,000 to create a roadmap, including detailed budget and milestones, and also to set up key partnerships in this phase. Based on that, we can run a pilot program onboarding 3-5 women. We expect to produce results from that program that can be further iterated by others, and we would use that information to inform the further expansion of the program to more women. This will be the most comprehensive diversity initiative we know of to date in Ethereum and the DAO space.About the TeamThough we are seeking funds to build a new program, this may partially be considered retroactive public goods funding. We have a track record as an early, inclusive and well-regarded Moloch DAO supporting women. We hold monthly calls that cover a wide range of topics from learning about DeFi protocols such as Aave, to discussing legal issues in the DAO space, and even sharing PR tips to get more awareness for your project. We’ve provided grants to DeFi dapps such as Good Ghosting, publications like The Defiant, and art initiatives like DADA collective.We currently have about 80 members: web3 entrepreneurs, developers, experts, and educators. We have the capacity to provide meaningful mentorship in various aspects of Ethereum. Meta Gamma Delta members are accomplished in their areas of expertise.Partnerships are essential to this initiative, gathering assistance from all quarters, but also - importantly - enabling other DAOs, companies, and entities to collaborate on this major public good. In particular, we propose to partner with other DAOs to fill out the workstreams. We will need a variety of people to design and implement this ambitious program. We may look to Raid Guild cohorts, Metagame, Padawan DAO, and others - and create not only workstreams for their members but also a meaningful trade of value in terms of mentorship and opportunity.If funded for a minimum of $25,000, our first task will be to convene a working group of 5-10 MGD members to jumpstart this initiative. We will engage with other diversity initiatives such as Panvala’s Women-Led Coalition and Jovian to inform the development of this work.The timeline should be about a year, with the first three months dedicated to mapping out the rest. We will make all of our work products public and accessible so others may track our progress and copy our models as desired.We made a proposal to MolochDAO to be a cornerstone partner in this major initiative. Have questions? Want to partner? We'd love to chat with you.TwitterDiscord

Global sanctions and internet censorship for Persian-speaking blockchain activists.The Persian blockchain and crypto community has been going through difficult times lately.Persian-speaking blockchain activists haven’t accessed training courses, the community is now in dire straits, along with disruptions to global networks and strict internet censorship in Iran.Global sanctions and internet censorship in countries such as Iran and Afghanistan have not only deprived activists of up-to-date blockchain and Web3 knowledge in these countries, but have further isolated them and prevented them from communicating with global experts.The risk of being arrested and imprisoned Persian-speaking activists in this field. They have been repeatedly accused of conducting dubious economic activities due to the Iranian government's ignorance of cryptocurrencies, so the risk of being arrested and imprisoned also threatens them.Such a circumstance has constrained active members of the community to emigrate or cease their activities. Also, it must be noted that immigration is a very complicated task for most individuals, due to the low monetary value and low validity of the passport.What had we done? CoinIran is the first Persian blockchain and crypto website which launched as a non-profit group in 2014 to empower the Persian-speaking community. Over the past few years, we have been translating, writing, and publishing thousands of articles, creating hundreds of videos and podcasts, and conducting numerous research and training projects to achieve this goal, and this path will go on.What do we need to do? According to the portrayed conditions, CoinIran will enlist your help to take effective measures in line with its main goals, overcome language barriers and technological obstacles, and support the activities and growth of the Persian-speaking community. We are seeking funding or other forms of support to successfully implement the program below. The most important measures we want to take:Providing dedicated VPNs to bypass filtering and censorship.Educating the strategies for keeping up the security of assets.Making instructional videos on safe and secure internet usagePrivacy oriented educational materialWe are also open to suggestions and intellectual assistance of any kind. Do not hesitate to send us your ideas to improve the situation of the Persian-speaking community.We will regularly update you on the project, and share a draft for iterations.Some update On 07-Mar-2023We have been translating, writing, and publishing thousands of articles, creating hundreds of videos and podcasts, and conducting numerous research and training projects to achieve this goal, and this path will go on.Such as:1-For anyone who needed it, we provided trusted VPNs to bypass filtering and censorship.2-Hold workshops on “layer two platforms” and introduced “Metaverse and NFT” in the first Iran Mobile Congress.3-Translating and publishing books:The bullish case for BitcoinThe little Bitcoin bookInventing BitcoinBitcoin money: a tale of Bitville discovering good money4-Research about Iranian cryptocurrency Exchange Benchmark in order to choose the best and safest exchange:https://coiniran.com/iranian-cryptocurrency-exchange-benchmark/Full English Report: https://coiniran.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/English_report.pdf5-Preparing texts about blockchain solutions that can be used in Iran into Persian (such as blockchain applications in healthcare, education, the oil and gas industry, banking, intellectual property protection, financial services, voting elections, agriculture and logistics).https://coiniran.com/blockchain-in-healthcare/https://coiniran.com/blockchain-in-education-industry/https://coiniran.com/blockchain-in-oil-and-gas-industry/https://coiniran.com/blockchain-in-banking-2/https://coiniran.com/blockchain-in-protecting-intellectual-property/https://coiniran.com/blockchain-technology-in-agriculture/&nbsp;https://coiniran.com/blockchain-in-insurance-industry/https://coiniran.com/blockchain-cybersecurity/&nbsp;https://coiniran.com/blockchain-in-payment-systems/&nbsp;7-Research about the blockchain ecosystem and Coinmap in Iran (the network of all the participants in the blockchain network that share the business process and business objectives) that will be published in a month.

The Revillaging Mutual Mentorships Program is one of the many projects within the Diamante Bridge Collective. ﻿Designed by Dani Bellavita to further the work of “ReInhabiting the Village” book project, the mentorship program provides an environment in which individuals can openly support each other in re-creating themselves within a village context. We can only truly reinhabit the village once we have revillaged the inhabitants!'This is not your typical “Master/Apprentice” dynamic.We are connecting young minds and talent with opportunities to intimately study community life by taking on new roles and responsibilities where there is an experienced mentor to coach and review their work in a new area, and! The mentor is also here to learn new tools, gain fresh insights, and receive feedback from alternate perspectives, honoring that everyone has a gift to share and a voice in choosing their path.&nbsp;As ReVillagers we are all mentors, learning together in mutual respect about both new and ancient tools that may be implemented to help those who come after us.Our collective attracts individuals who both have mastery in their own field and seek mastery in another. These individuals would normally find their current skills used within existing extractive systems, limiting their potential for self-discovery and growth while becoming part of a machine which has proven to cause harm to our planet and imbalance within our society. The aim of the Mutual Mentorship program is to liberate willing souls from that reality and harness their skills for the good of all: to practice and share the wisdom and tools necessary for living in community and raising a village.&nbsp;We offer multiple mentorship opportunities: each program led by a different mentor, each sharing their own unique skill sets. Our programs cover the key skill sets that are necessary for life in a thriving village community.&nbsp;Returning to the Village is about creating healthy regenerative systems on all levels of life, from the smallest microorganisms in the soil, to the roadways and waterways, to the youth and the elders and people within our local community and amongst our vast global community network. It is about the inner work, knowing thyself, as much as it is about “all our relations”, plant, animal, and human.The Revillaging Mutual Mentorship Program is a holistic approach to all aspects of a healthy life and community, and its intention is to train 3 community members for 3 roles necessary for the next phase of our evolution. In the process, we create regenerative livelihoods that value the wisdom, experience and contributions of those holding stewardship positions with the DBC.All donations to this project are used to pay housing and living expenses for the mutual mentorship participants and recipients of scholarships to this program.﻿🎊﻿ 2023 Cohort B Mentors&nbsp;﻿🎉﻿Cohort A (completed 2022):This pilot of the program was a 3 month long Mutual Mentorship journey led by one of the DBC co-founders Dani Bellavita. The journey focused on training Cohort participants (Krista, Lala &amp; Nikola) to fulfill specific roles newly created and very much needed within the ever-expanding Diamante Bridge Collective community. Please check out past updates on the project listing at Giveth.io for a record of the experience.Program Structure:Our Mentorship programs start at 3 months and can last up to 12 months and include room and board. The first phase of the program is a one-month orientation period. Upon successful completion of the orientation phase, the participant will commence into the second phase, which is a 3-month internship (the first month having already been completed). Upon successful completion of the 3-month internship, we will celebrate as the participant graduates into entering the full Apprenticeship phase of the program, which means completing an additional 9 months.&nbsp;Upon successful completion of the 12-month program, the participant will be prepared and equipped to enter into long-term community life at one of the associated land nodes, should they wish to do so. As part of our program, they will have the opportunity to join our extensive network of communities affiliated with the Diamante Bridge Collective, located within Costa Rica and also internationally. Each community in our network offers a different flavor, style, and structure, and it’s important for individuals to find the place which is the best fit for their needs and values.From a perspective of growing community and roles to be taken, this mentorship program is focused on specific roles within the developing structure, and aims to establish functioning systems for our Collective. 12 months marks the completion of a natural solar cycle. Following this model, we see that 12 months is the necessary amount of time required for an individual to integrate deeply into a new way of living.&nbsp;Participants of the Program:Our mentorship program is aimed primarily at integrating individuals into community life and filling future roles that will be necessary for a healthy, fast-growing, and sustainable community. It also prepares individuals to bridge the world of Crypto Economies with life on the ground working in harmony with our Earth and teaches them how to use this resource to further restore and protect our land. The goal of the program is the transmission of knowledge and wisdom from senior members of the community to the youth. This allows us to bridge the generations and ensures that the wisdom gleaned from a lifetime of experience is passed down to ensure the success, health, and empowerment of future generations.Cohorts are selected based on their skills and ability to live in harmony, be diplomatic, open and who exhibit strong communication and connection skills. They are eager to learn, expand, and eventually, to also pass on their wisdom to the next Cohort. They also act as a learning tool for Elder members, allowing both to share their unique abilities with one another and to help the Mentor hone their teaching skills.&nbsp;Sponsoring Mentorship Program Participants:Those who choose to sponsor this program are helping to empower a group of community-oriented individuals who will then carry the wisdom and tools they need to create and connect communities wherever they are. Together, we can liberate a generation from life in individual-centric jobs which only succeed in further reducing our resources.&nbsp;Funding requested:US $3600 per person per 3 months (there are 3 spots/roles available)Funding will be used towards several aspects of the program:&nbsp;“For most of human history we have lived as Villagers… Yet, in a matter of a few generations, much of the world’s populace has become imbalanced and disconnected from our environment and from each other, and we are seeing the ramifications of this disconnection across all spectrums of life...We as a species live at a critical crossroads, a time in which the impacts of our past and the potential of our future intersect. A time in which the choices each one of us make every day, and the decisions we collectively agree to influence, create a legacy for future generations.”- Excerpt from ReInhabiting the Village: CoCreating our future, by Jamaica StevensYou can learn more about our collective here: https://giveth.io/project/diamante-bridge-collective-0linktr.ee/theDBCAnd don't forget to follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/DiamanteBridge

We’re testing universal basic income!More and more people feel that universal basic income could be really good for our society. We think so too. Universal basic income has been a hot topic recently. There are pilot experiments, trial models and field studies in model regions. Let’s finally give it a try – a scientifically sound and ambitious governmental universal basic income trial!We are a non-profit organization, founded by Joy and Laura in spring 2019, with a team of 16 people and a crowd of supporters all over Germany. We understand unconditional basic income as the basis for a new social contract for the 21st century.We are starting an attempt, which is unique in the world, to initiate a public experiment for an unconditional basic income with the help of a referendum (“Volksbegehren”) in Berlin.

It is a movement that was born spontaneously through the union of skaters who were in the city center, mainly in Praça XV. Due to the repression of the municipal guard that limited the practice of skateboarding in public squares, there was a need to organize, question the ban and, above all, speak out in favor of freeing up the public spaces. Due to the need to communicate with the government in a formal and representative way, we founded the Associação Cultural do Skate. From then onwards, the activities unfolded into social actions, film screenings, musical presentations and art exhibitions related to skateboarding culture held at Praça XV, in cultural centers and museums. Nowadays, it is a cultural group that moves and forms partnerships with institutions, other collectives and brands.Coletivo XV is a non-profit organization that need funds to continue making the social difference through skateboarding culture.This was our last event funded by Skatehive  community on Hive and LBRY Blockchain:This is our website -&gt; https://ilovexv.com/dev (under construction)Reach us at -&gt; https://discord.gg/Pa4vpKCSbt

GRACEaid fundraising to support earthquake relief in Turkey &amp; Syria...Early Monday morning, on the 6th Feb, a 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck the region around Gaziantep, Turkey and north-west Syria. This was followed by an aftershock of 7.5 later in the day, causing further devastation. At the time of writing, the death toll is estimated at more than 15,000 and continues to rise.Rescuers dig through rubble in snow and freezing temperatures to search for survivors. In Syria, the situation is exacerbated by a lack of infrastructure and an ongoing cholera outbreak after more than a decade of uprising and conflict.In recent years, North-West Syria has become one of the hardest places to reach with only one aid corridor from Turkey. Gaziantep, at the quake’s epicentre, is an important UN aid hub for northern Syria and the earthquake has disrupted the vital flow of cross-border aid.GRACEaid is launching this appeal to support two established and experienced NGOs providing assistance in Turkey and Syria: Ahbap and Molham Team to provide immediate humanitarian needs and the necessities they lack to lessen suffering in aftermath.Photograph: Gaziantep, Turkey: Anadolu Agency/Getty ImagesAbout GRACEaidAlerted by the suffering of everyday people, arriving on the shores of Greece fleeing war and persecution and the terrible conditions in the infamous Calais Jungle, GRACEaid grew from a grassroots community effort in south-east London in 2015, providing basic daily necessities,such as clothing, food and shelter.GRACEaid has helped thousands of people get access to basic supplies when they need it most; both internationally and at the heart of the local community.GRACEaid now has an established presence in the local community running a community shop and warehouse to support people displaced by war, persecution and trafficking.Thanks to the Giveth platform, GRACEaid was an early adopter in the use of crypto for fundraising by humanitarian aid charities and NGOs.

Osmotic Funding is a protocol built on top of Conviction Voting to create and regulate project funding streams based on the interest a community has in them. Community preference is revealed continuously, since tokenholders are able to change their stake at any moment.It allocates funds to initiatives from a pool of tokens over time based on the votes they receive from a governance token holder community. This way the community can signal along all the time which are their preferences. The rate at which each project is funded is determined by the staked amount and the available funds. The rate variations are smoothed over time to avoid high rate variations and offer stability to the projects.It won two sponsor prices in ETHOnline 2021: MakerDAO - 1st Place and Superfluid - Best Coordination Mechanics. The current state of the project is a prototype, and we would like to develop an MVP to do our first pilot.Important: We prefer people to donate through the xdai chain, we will only be able to use the mainnet funds by deploying a gnosis safe there.

Update: Over 20 hours of our Solidity course is now online for free and has more than 30,000 views just on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDwI1rIhknpNyUWdFt_XD6rpTEjTkUcYoWe are working on the next cohort for Winter 2023. -------------------Dear Friends, in these past few months we have embarked on an unbelievable and extraordinary journey! Thanks to your support, we were able to educate over 500 Farsi speaking people about blockchain and smart contract coding (Solidity).&nbsp;Over a year ago, seven different women (now Women in Blockchain Farsi) living in different parts of the world heard about a scholarship for the ConsenSys Academy smart contract development course for Farsi-speaking women. This opportunity, organized by the non-profit educational organization “CoinIran”’s founder Bahar and Women in Blockchain’s Founder Thessy Mehrain (also ½ Iranian), was designed to teach all the fundamentals of smart contract development. All seven women who applied for this program successfully graduated the course.This indeed was huge for us. Participating in an international course, coming from Iran, enabled us to overcome some of the everyday challenges imposed on Iranian society. Words cannot describe how grateful we are for this opportunity! This opened new doors in the world of decentralized technology and blockchain. We were able to take on freelance coding projects and even participate in hackathons! Now we want to help others do the same and here is why:There is a general lack of resources and educational content in the native language of these regions, posing major obstacles to Farsi speaking communities when it comes to accessing finance and decentralized technology. The Farsi-speaking community has a population of more than 120 million, located in West Asia in Afghanistan, Tajikistan and Iran. Recently, the Taliban government in Afghanistan has banned all girls from schools and has even closed universities. Moreover, heavy sanctions imposed on Iranian citizens has limited them from accessing most social media platforms via geoblocking and even blocking educational platforms, in this way making it difficult to gain access to accurate and up to date education content.&nbsp;Last year, we created the smart contract development forum to share and build on the knowledge we acquired through this course and participating in hackathons. The forum grew fast and is now an active platform for Farsi speaking community consisting of over 550 members.&nbsp;We also taught a Smart Contract course in the summer of 2021. The request for participation in this course exceeded the capacity of the class with 150 applicants. However, given the limited volunteer labour and resources, we only accepted 35 eligible students. The course was co-founded and instructed by Women in Blockchain Farsi, and mentored by Shayan Eskandari. The course ran for 3 months and featured more than 40 hours of online classes and technical articles.&nbsp;In this course, students were first introduced to the basic concepts of blockchain and Ethereum, and were taught all the technical skills needed to develop smart contracts and decentralized applications.&nbsp;Thanks to the endless labour of our volunteers, the course was well received by students. We had a diverse range of students, even as young as 13 years old! Our graduates received their special POAP developer certification.A few testimonials from the graduates of the summer course:&nbsp;https://www.linkedin.com/posts/activity-6873020335860531200-u-3R/https://twitter.com/chichinaaa/status/1464862158773235721?s=20https://twitter.com/erfansafari14/status/1464935859657056263https://twitter.com/DibaMomeni/status/1464871828699205638?s=20​​https://twitter.com/amiralbertt/status/1464981792902074374?s=20Even though the course ended in September 2021, our work here isn’t done, we need your support!In this year’s ConsenSys Academy Ethereum developer bootcamp, we were able to sponsor 65 Farsi speaking individuals (45 from Iran and 20 from Afghanistan). Unfortunately, the course abruptly ended for most of our students due to unknown legal issues regarding their jurisdiction.&nbsp;Even though this was a hard blow for both our students and mentors, we managed to pick up the pieces and move forward. We are determined to continue spreading smart contract development education and teaching valuable skills to foster autonomy and grant access to decentralized finance.&nbsp;Latest update: Our Gitcoin grant also was suspended due to the "jurisdiction" of our students!!Please support us in our mission! Not only will your funds help ensure that our volunteers get fairly compensated for the hard labour they put into managing and maintaining this course, but it will also help ensure that the course content and materials stay accessible and free to everyone!Let’s build a more equitable future by ensuring that everyone - regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, and geographical location - can benefit from blockchain.&nbsp;----------Here's the Women in Blockchain Farsi team:

Mutual Aid and Civil Defense with Cut The Plastic EMS- stems from a series of groups that provide food, clothing and jobs for housing insecure people in the Denver Metropolitan area. We take food that would be destined for the landfill and divert it so that housed and unhoused members of the community have access to home cooked nutritional meals, clean drinking water, laundered clothing and personal hygiene needs. Residents volunteer at food banks; collect bruised, damaged or "expired' food from grocery stores; transfer it to people who cook meals in their homes and take it to public spaces to provide safe spaces for people to eat. We collect and purchase sustainable containers for storing drinking water reducing reliance of plasticized water, provide permanent (not disposable) plates and silverware that is washed after each meal and work with laundry services to ensure that people without housing have access to fresh laundry.Additionally we promote issues important to our communities like having access to water, affordable housing and fighting laws that criminalize people for being poor. These methods include providing potable water to people who live on the street, participating in the political sphere to fight efforts to criminalize poverty and assisting people in navigating the infrastructure of low income services to find solutions assisting people in receiving the dignity of stability in their lives.

Hey Hi, this feels super awkward. Here I am, just some relatively random person, about to represent the global grassroots community of Liberating Structures. Maybe that’s a bit presumptive, so let me describe the corner of the community I tend.But first a little context. Back in 2012 these dudes, Keith McCandless and Henri Lipmanowicz, published a book “The Surprising Power of Liberating Structures” under the Creative Commons Copyright (with attribution and non-commercial if you’re curious). The contents of that book are 33 tools for Shared Thinking, you can imagine them as facilitation techniques that are simple enough that no background or experience in facilitation is needed to use them. They are so simple in fact that you, yes you, can use them to organize any conversation you are having with any amount of people. What I mean to say is that no external facilitation is needed. Democratizing and distributing the ability to facilitate any conversation anywhere.Think about what that can do. Not only can everyone benefit when any one person in a group can offer ideas on how to enable the conversation, but everyone can also do so, opening up an new meta-conversation we call Process Mindfulness.This Toolkit of Liberating Structures is a Commons and it continues to be developed as an Open Source development project by users all over the planet. Go ahead and google whatever country/city you are in and “Liberating Structures User Group” and you will find folks self-organizing their practice sessions.My name is Jeremy Akers, and I am one of those people.Now this Process Mindfulness thing is pretty much the best platonic sensation I’ve ever experienced. It is extraordinarily generative and, my favorite part, it naturally leads to action: using the product of the meta-conversation on process to have the larger conversation on content. I work as a person who hosts a lot of meetings. I usually spend 3 hours of planning and preparation for every 1 hour of meeting. Unless I am working with another LS User, then we can shrink that planning and prep time down to 30 minutes.Like I said this feels extraordinary, and I want to spend more of my life with more people in this way. So I am hyper-active in the LS scene working towards these ends byGrowing the amount of people familiar with LSIncreasing the fluency of everyone with LSFor example, every Monday I host a Wise Crowds LS Design Call where a random group comes together to give and get help planning or designing meetings and workshops. One person takes on the role of client with a Design Brief consisting of:1. Place: context meeting is happening in2. Purpose: intended goal/outcome of the session3. Participants: who will be need in order to be successful4. Process: any ideas they have for how to go about it (or not) Tthen use the Liberating Structures Wise Crowds and Design Storyboard to Consult on the Client’s Design Brief. In about 30 minutes we prototype what we call a String of different LS they could use to meet the Design Brief. Oh yeah that’s one of the coolest things about LS, you can String them together like letters, words, sentences, paragraphs etc.https://docs.google.com/file/d/1_IkLF8sgh2UgisDx7efdd0scoxqSbezO/edit?usp=docslist_api&amp;filetype=mswordThe idea is that we’re engineering a win-win-win-win-winClients win consultation.Context of the client wins by the application of all this Shared ThinkingConsultants win learning from one another and practice designing StringsLearners win from practical examples of what specific LS are good forI win by getting to spend more time, with more people in this generative and creative wayClients are then more confident to use LS in their context, introducing them to more people. Grow the User base, check. Increase fluency, check. Clients come back and tell us how it went, what they learnt and the Liberating Structures Learning Journey never ends.You should come join us. I’m sure there is at least 1 meeting that could become more life affirming a s a resulthttps://www.meetup.com/changehackers/events/283176507/In addition to events like this, their are meetups happening almost every day that are more try-it-out practice sessions. A group of people will set a topic and then lead a group through a string of structures to explore the topic. They get to practice hosting and joiners get to experience how the structures work. I usually host one of these myself per month in one of 4 different groups.https://www.meetup.com/Liberating-Structures-go-online/https://www.meetup.com/liberatingstructures/https://www.meetup.com/changehackers/Whatever client I’m working with at the momentPlus all the action on the LS Learning Journey side there is the continued development in the community. New LS, new tools for using the old ones and guides for applying them to perennial problems. For example there is a Community of Practice around adaptive Strategy Knotworking, where we’re working to refine and explain the myriad of different ways we us LS to explore the unknown in order for us to act in it.In the lingo/jargon of the LS scene, I am what you would call a User Group Organizer. What I want to do is to pump as many resources as possible into the pool of User Group Organizers. Not only would I like to go pro in serving the community full-time but I want to enable ever other User Group Organizer to do the same.Grand Hypothesis:I believe that offering resources to those intrinsically motivated towards stewardship will encourage them to do more in the way of events, ambassadorship, and development of the commons.So I will create a DAO in order to bring these contributors together, make our coordination explicit and develop a web3 ledger of participation and proficiencyAnd measure worldwide LS users, level of proficiency on a per structure basis, overall levels of development, distribution of proficiency, duration of development arcI am right if the tooling becomes adopted, participation in the global community goes from 5k to 25k in 12 months, and all existing 5k take a step in their development, between 3 and 81 fulltime stewards

Minority communities are facing lethal levels of disinvestment within the "The Worlds richest country".The Problem:In light of recent flooding due to climate change and global warming, the water main that services Jackson, MS (a city that's 82% black) it has left a city of over 150,000 citizens without drinkable water. With no relief in sight this experience is just one of the many examples of those with power failing the people. Time is of the essence, but no amount of water bottles can solve the underlying issue of infrastructural racism and the lack of sustainable investment within Black and Brown communities, that is where blockchain comes in.The Solution:We are using blockchain technology as a coordination tool to not only gather critical resources but to develop internet native infrastructure to ensure this never happens again and to build community control of public goods. By investing in this project you are helping to fund the distribution of safe, drinkable water, testing &amp; purification kits for at home use &amp; research and development of open source tools for early detection and defense against water contamination.Supplemental Resources:Climate Crisis Impact Worse in Black CitiesProject Lead:Catalyst (Uhuru Force Steward)Contributors:Walthova (La Familia DAO)Key Local Stakeholders:Cooperation JacksonEleven86Water Distribution

The Unchained Index is a collection of tools that "scrape" EVM-based chains looking at every transaction/trace/log/block/receipt -- that is -- everything and builds an index of address appearances.With that index, which we publish in a novel way using IPFS, we can build unique and interesting applications. We recently completed this application, which demonstrates our stance vis-a-vis the Ethereum data: https://tokenomics.io/gitcoin.The Ethereum data is a public good, and it must remain so.In January, we published a Specification for the Unchained Index, which fully explains the process of building the index. We've begun writing various "mini-dapps" which will help to explain and showcase our tech stack.We seek funding to continue our work which would involve professionalizing, documenting, and getting the word out about our project. We've written extensively about our work here: https://trueblocks.io/blog and have an active community at our discord (accessible through our website).

Imagine if we can treat depression with an off-patent psychedelic-assisted therapy or cancer with a ketogenic diet?&nbsp;Crowd Funded Cures is a registered﻿ NZ charity (partnered with VitaDAO, Molecule, PsyDAO, &amp; LabDAO and receiving advisory support from Protocol Labs and the Health Impact Fund) whose mission is to create a financially innovative Impact Market to re-align private incentives in the medical industry away from monopoly-priced patented medicines and towards low-cost, open-source therapies that can treat and potentially cure millions of patients and improve global health and well-being.&nbsp;Currently, 1000s of otherwise viable unmonopolizable therapies are ignored by the pharmaceutical industry because a monopoly price cannot be enforced. We call them public good medicines because once the treatment protocol is published, it is not possible to stop people accessing the therapy from multiple sources (non-excludable) and use of the treatment protocol does not prevent others from using it (non-rivalrous).Unfortunately, this causes a tragedy of the commons which means that pharma companies will not fund the large clinical trials needed for them to be reimbursed by health insurers or obtain regulatory approval. Governments and health insurers also do not want to take on the political risk of paying for large clinical trials in case they fail, which means these treatments will typically not be accepted by the mainstream medical establishment. They include repurposed off-patent generic drugs, supplements, plant medicines, psychedelics, diets, and non-pharmaceutical / lifestyle interventions.We can solve this tragedy of the commons and provide a high impact use case for web3 that unlocks billions of dollars in social value for relatively low cost by establishing an Impact Market that incentivises impact investors to fund IP-NFTs representing public good medicines. Successful clinical trial data that validates the safety and efficacy of such public good medicines converts the IP-NFTs into Hypercerts eligible to receive outcome payments from a crowdfunded Open Source Medical Prize Fund proportional to improved patient outcomes validated in clinical trials (see Medical Prize fund figure below). The Impact Market also de-risks the funding of clinical trials for donors / public. The result would be that investors fund new public good medicines that are off-patent, unmonopolizable, and available to the entire global community at low cost, while obtaining a standard return on investment.However, in order to bring this open source business model to pharma, we need to crowdfund a source of retroactive (and quadratic) funding of the Impact Market through our Medical Prize Fund, which is governed by our Medical Impact DAO. Together, by supporting our Medical Impact DAO, the community can usher in a new era of medicine which does not ignore otherwise viable therapies because they are not profitable under the traditional patent system. Unlike donations to traditional charities (which often receive the majority of their funding from big pharma), through this novel “pay-for-success” mechanism, you can also be sure that your donations will only fund successful clinical trials.The following research seminar for Protocol Labs by founder Savva Kerdemelidis and CTO Cyrus of Eden explains the problem of this tragedy of the commons and how to solve it using crowdfunded Medical Impact NFT, a Medical Prize fund, Hypercerts x IP-NFTs to create an impact market for open source medicine:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQZlAtUx728Your Giveth donations will be used to:Build out the core infrastructure (frontend, backend and operations) for our Medical Impact DAO, which will govern our Medical Prize Fund, a source of retroactive funding for Phase 2 clinical trials of public good medicines.Support the establishment of an impact market for open source longevity medicines via a Longevity Prize pilot with VitaDAO and Hypercerts.xyz, and an Open Psychedelic Medicine Prize fund for treating depression (sign up to whitelist for initial Medical Impact NFT drop for Open Psychedelic Medicines here). Go-To-Market Plan &amp; Business ModelStage 1: Medical Impact DAO crowdfunds Medical “De-Risking” Prize Fund for Retrospective Funding of Phase 2 RCTs (see Figure 1 below)Step 1.The Medical Prize Fund will be crowdfunded via sales of Medical Impact NFTs (e.g. Open Psychedelic Medicine NFTs or Open Longevity NFTs for Longevity Prize pilot, noted above), with 5% platform fee to support DAO infrastructure &amp; operations, 5% royalty to support NFT artist and 90% allocated to the Medical Prize Fund.Step 2.IP-NFTs are then minted to secure funding from impact investors for Phase 2 RCTs that generate treatment protocols with the most impact, as measured by % improved clinical outcomes vs. standard of care, which will be allocated impact points that determine the right to receive outcome payments from the Medical Impact Fund, through a flexible prize mechanism (e.g. 50% improvement in clinical outcomes vs usual care provides 50 impact points).&nbsp;The higher the impact, the more impact points and more proportion of the annual 20% outcome payment received. This incentivizes incremental improvements and medical breakthroughs and “de-risks” Phase 2 RCTs and to determine the optimal treatment protocol for a public good medicine.It also means that the Medical Prize Fund is scalable - the larger it is the more RCTs are registered before “market equilibium” is reached. This also ensures the efficient pricing and delivery of impact by the markets.Treatment protocols that are less efficacious/safe than standard of care will not be rewarded.Step 3.Successful clinical trial data validating safety and efficacy of a certain treatment protocol converts IP-NFTs to Hypercerts which has the rights to register to the fund and receive outcome payments for a period of time (e.g 5 years), proportional to Impact Points generated, as validated by an independent contract research organization and multisig oracle. IP-NFTs owners receive exclusivity over their treatment protocol, as long as they are actively conducting the RCT.Figure 1. Our Medical Prize Fund acts as a retroactive (and quadratic) funding “pull” incentive to optimize treatment protocols in Phase 2 Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) for public good medicines that are off-patent, unmonopolizable, and potentially curative.Stage 2: Medical Impact DAO establishes Public Good Pharma Ltd to negotiate Advance Market Commitments (AMCs) for funding Phase 3 RCTs needed for Regulatory Approval of Public Good Medicines (see Figure 2 below)Once the optimal treatment protocol for Phase 2 RCTs is obtained by the Medical Impact DAO (see Stage 1 above), a Public Good Pharma company owned by the Medical Impact DAO will negotiate Advanced Market Commitments from Payers, e.g., healthcare payers - private and public - government, etc. ensure that funding the Phase 3 RCTs are rewarded with an exclusive commitment to purchase a “branded” therapy, e.g., $100m for OpenKetamine for treatment-resistant depression. The Public Good Pharma company can also leverage method of use / dosing regime patents and reformulations to strengthen its IP position although these would primarily be enforceable against payers but not against doctors and patients (hence the tragedy of the commons) - so open source is "baked-into" the model.AMCs provide financial incentives for Impact Investors to back a Phase 3 RCT which costs around $50m, and also conduct post marketing surveillance to check the therapy’s performance in real life scenarios, to study the long-term risks and benefits of using the therapy and to discover any rare side effects.The amount of the AMC will be less than the cost savings for Payers that successful treatment protocols derived from these clinical trials provide, which allows the business model to scale.&nbsp;As part of the Advanced Market Commitment, Phase 3 RCTs that fail to show efficacy/safety vs. standard of care will not receive a payout from the AMC.Figure 2. Our Medical Impact DAO will establish a Public Good Pharma Ltd to negotiate Advance Market Commitments for the funding of Phase 3 RCTs required for regulatory approval (e.g., FDA, EMA) of public good medicines.Explainer Video by Life Noggin showing for Advance Market Commitments or "Pay-For-Success" contracts work to incentivise generic drug repurposinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwAOJc_IsVkDAO Roadmap &amp; MilestonesOver the next two quarters, our DAO building efforts will focus on the following:Building community and forming Working GroupsCommunity &amp; PartnershipsDAO Governance (Discourse / Snapshot)Ethics&nbsp;Executive Team / OperationsLegal &amp; PolicyPublic Good Medicine DealflowPayer &amp; Donor EngagementTechnology / TokenomicsOKR developmentDAO &amp; FundWeekly town hallTo enable community members to create and contribute to proposals and have a voice in DAO governance.Onboarding a Core Partner NetworkIncluding payers, contract research organizations and other service providers, researchers, patient groups, policy makers, health care systems, generics manufacturers, healthcare practitioners, regulators, academia and non-profit, funders, health technology assessment organizations (e.g. ICER).EstablishingMedical Prize Criteria Committee&nbsp;Ethics Advisory BoardWritingWhite PaperSourcingPromising research projects (e.g. generic drug and nutraceutical repurposing use cases) that will advance public good medicine development Clinical Trial “Deal Flow” (on-going, includes OpenKetamine).PreparingToken Launch (Q1 2023)

What? Bloom Network is an international community of people and projects creating and nurturing regenerative cultures to permanence. Local Bloom hubs around the world grow participation in practices such as food security, local economies, celebrations of diversity, and art as cultural transformation. http://www.bloomnetwork.org Where and Who?There are 16 local Blooms in 7 countries on 4 continents, and we estimate there are approximately 30,000 people involved on the ground. Our participants include farmers, creatives, Indigenous leaders, and professionals who are working together in coalitions. Why?Why are we doing this? There are tens of thousands of initiatives solving major social and environmental problems, who are excluded from mainstream media and institutional finance because the way they work is naturally collaborative and polycentric. Now that Web3 is useable enough by a non-technical audience, we will implement a membership model to support grassroots organizing on an ongoing basis.MilestonesYour contributions to this project will go toward these milestones:+ Complete a "Regenerative Actions Ticker" on our homepage, to document and reward actions like planting food forests, hosting a CryptoParty, or teaching a class on restorative justice.+ Launch our "Call to Bloom" to help 100+ local Blooms get started as centers of regenerative action in their cities.+ Implement MyMeta, a profile system on Ceramic built by our friends at MetaGame, for an open, portable profiles system that can work across different websites. + Code DAO templates that local Bloom chapters can use to fund the coordination labor of actions such as regional food security, policy development, mutual aid, and startups that generate ongoing financial stability.

We are a project that through the use of easily accessible technology allows us to generate open data for the study of Solitaire Native Bees through research and citizen science. Bees take care of a large part of the important process of pollination. A Smart Bee Shelter helps ensure a nesting site and data collection for research and investigation.The Smart Bee Shelter has an interactive design component, with an acrylic wall on the sides of the shelter, and doors that allow the visualization of the nesting area. The shelter has laser sensors on the nest entrances, and a camera takes a picture of every action on the shelter and sends it to a database.Other sensors the shelter has are temperature, pressure, humidity, and UVs. This is an open-source and open design project. In our platform airbeenbee.io, you can get complete building and assembling instructions, the ISO file to connect your shelter to the worldwide network and share your data with the community, and education materials to use your shelter as a STEM teaching tool in school.We have more than 20 shelters in education institutions in more than 10 countries including Costa Rica, Canada, Mexico, Ecuador, El Salvador, and Spain, and we are constantly looking for funding to keep fabricating and delivering them to universities, animal sanctuaries, and schools.www.hoteldeabejas.org

Bail Reform is a racial justice issue!The ProblemNearly half a million people are behind bars in America (the largest carceral state in the world) and have yet to be convicted for a crime. In Texas specifically, the rate for detainees yet to be convicted makes up over half of the incarcerated population. This disproportionately impacts minority communities who lack the financial means to post bail without being forced to overcollateralize (putting up houses, cars, etc.) to simply be free as according to the constitution (innocent until proven guilty).With Mass overcrowding in local and state detention centers, crumbling infrastructure &amp; inmate violence on the rise, these facilities are proving not to be sufficient for rehabilitation. With nearly 1/3 of all people arrested being detained pretrail purely due to inability to pay we as a community MUST look to alternatives to ensure the safety and justice of our most vulnerable populations. The OpportunityThe legacy bail industry (in mass facilitated by insurance companies and conglomerates) facilitates racial prejudice and the prison industrial complex which is ripe for deconstruction. Freeing those in pretrail detention is a form of justice that contributes directly towards the ethos of web3 and contributes to the much needed decongestion of overcrowded facilities to promote higher quality care for those sentenced. We seek to leverage blockchain technology and artificial intelligence to automate, optimize and segment targeted populations that does weekly bail outs and provides custom built care during the length of the trial to ensure vulnerable populations are given access to much needed resources.Supplemental Resourceshttps://www.texasappleseed.org/sites/default/files/Bail%20Reform%20Makes%20Texas%20Safer.pdfhttps://www.tcjs.state.tx.us/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/2021AJR.pdfhttps://www.prisonpolicy.org/reports/incomejails.htmlhttps://www.prisonpolicy.org/reports/pie2022.htmlProject LeadCatalystContributorsWalthovaFree_DynastyLead PartnersLuke 4:18 Bail Fund

Njombe, located at the southwest of Tanzania, is the capital of Njombe region. Around 100,000 people live in this town and the number has been rapidly growing in the past years.As in many other places in Tanzania, solid waste management is a challenge in Njombe. 35 tons of solid waste are generated daily in the town: 28 tons are taken to a dumpsite, where the waste is usually burnt since the dumpsite is getting full faster than expected. The rest of the waste is burnt in pits at the backyards or it simply ends up in the environment. 10 % of the solid waste is plastic waste: 3,500 kg of per day, which is equal to 1000 tons of plastic waste every year.The SMART Centre approach (train and support local entrepreneurs in developing their businesses around simple and affordable technologies) has already proved to be successful for water technologies. Precious Plastic "gave" us the blueprints to replicate this approach with plastic recycling technologies and tackle the plastic waste problematic locally.Njombe Beyond´s objective is to reduce the plastic wasted in Njombe town and to raise awareness in the local community about the problems and opportunities around plastic.Our specific objectives are:- To establish a sustainable value chain for plastic recycling locally and at small scale- To collaborate with the different stakeholders of the chain and ensure fair working conditions- To involve the community, including schools, in Njombe Beyond to shed light on the problems and opportunities of plastic wasteThis is how we organiseYou are welcome to contribute and be part of Njombe Beyond network, wherever in the world you are!

ARTXV is the 1st Web3 org for the disabled community, starting off as the 1st NFT collective for neurodivergent artists (any condition or disability which involves brain function that differs from the 'norm', e.g. autism, ADHD, bipolar etc.)We have now expanded to provide support and opportunities for all disabled creatives across the globe ﻿🚀﻿What do we do?We give underrepresented and marginalised artists the exposure, financial independence and recognition they deserve through selling their work as NFTs, which they were previously denied by the traditional art world.We also provide a community and safe place for the wider disabled community to be onboarded onto Web3.How did ARTXV start?ARTXV was started by 2 sisters, Ava and Tara.Ava, a student from London, started ARTXV because of her big sister Tara, an autistic, non-verbal artist. Ava tried to get the traditional art world to recognise Tara's work but was continuously turned away and not taken seriously once people would realise she's autistic, something that all the neurodivergent artists in ARTXV have experienced.That all changed with NFTs, where our artists have been wholeheartedly embraced by the Web3 community &lt;3DID YOU KNOW: Leonardo DaVinci, Picasso and Andy Warhol were all thought to be neurodivergent? Their neurodivergence heavily influenced their work and made them the artists they are celebrated as today.The neurodivergent artists of today have the ability to be the next Picassos, DaVincis and Warhols of our time, they just need the opportunities to do so.ARTXV is preparing for its VERY FIRST DROP on 30th June. Help us grow our team and community of neurodivergent artists, art lovers and allies.What have we been up to?-We became the 1st NFT collective to partner with Google Arts &amp; Culture, following our artists and their stories. See the project here.-We've officially announced our 17 artists. Meet them here.-We were featured in Forbes!

Das Hallo Projekt is an initiative from Leb Bunt e.V. , a NPO based in Munich. It brings newcomers and seniors together in cultural events to combat social isolation and cultivate a more diverse and tolerant society.How do we do? We organize group activities, tandem partnerships and community events to bring our supported groups together to get to know each other, to exchange ideas and to break down prejudices.Our activities take place after office hours, as well as on weekends, which allows working immigrants to participate as well. The activities take place only in German, in a pleasant and trusting environment, so that immigrants can use their German skills without fear of making mistakes. Here all participants support and help each other.Through the tandem program, we connect immigrants who want to improve their German language skills with seniors, who want to meet new people and refresh their foreign language skills. For us it is very important to create sustainable, positive and personal relationships. That is why we organize a tandem program in which seniors and immigrants meet in pairs. These pairs are formed according to common interests, hobbies and place of residence.Last, but not least, we organize community events for our immigrants. The goal of this type of activity is to give an opportunity to immigrants to get to know each other better, exchange tips and information about life in Germany, help each other but also make new friends.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

We are hard at work regenerating an entire bioregional territory in Barichara, Colombia. Check out our website to get a better feel for how things have progressed so far. The project I share here is for one key piece of the bigger puzzle -- we want to raise $15,000 to set up a learning center that focuses on the transformation of food, healing of cultural traumas, and cultivation of leadership among women in the community.Some of you may know that we recently raised $120,000 equivalent in Ethereum to begin negotiations for the purchase of a strategic piece of land. The mission for that effort is to restore native forest, bring a dead river back to life, and do so by establishing it as the future home of Barichara Ecoversity. This project  is a key step in the process to establish the ecoversity.We have an amazing woman in our village named Margarita. For years now, she has been a weaver of community whose work has focused on cultural healing through the transformation of food. She is poised to establish a learning center that works with a diversity of campesino groups throughout the region with a special focus on the empowerment of women.We want to give her and her team the ability to devote a full year to the incubation of this new learning center that grows out of many years establishing trust and collaborating with a lot of diverse people. Can you help us make this a success?

Territorial Regeneration in Barichara Colombia

Here at Rhiannon Community, our vision is to be sustainable and offer a place for people to heal and express themselves to their fullest capacity, while living in connection with Mother Earth. Every year, we plant around 1000 trees at Christmas time to reforest, regenerate and stimulate wildlife in Rhiannon. This Christmas, we are starting a 3-part project, which includes planting fruit trees, digging a reservoir to irrigate them, and using the clay from the reservoir to build an adobe accommodation for long-term volunteers. If you feel strongly about offsetting your carbon footprint, this could be a great reason to donate or offer a newly planted tree to a friend or family member as a Christmas present. We thank you in advance for supporting this project that will significantly impact our little community we call home.------------------------3 in 1 project, collective financing Christmas 2022.&nbsp;Rhiannon Community presents this dream to the online community!&nbsp;&nbsp;With great enthusiasm by the end of 2022 we are working hard on a triple project that tries to articulate activities in a multidisciplinary way: Agroforestry, water collection and natural construction are the keys. Education, sharing and caring of mother earth are our pillars, sustainability our desire.&nbsp;As you will have seen in our&nbsp;videos, we have plenty of reasons to&nbsp; start a project with this level&nbsp;of ambition. Our region has&nbsp;finally reached the implementation&nbsp;of the irrigation system,&nbsp;which allows us to initiate a different conservation commitment.&nbsp;So we can make a small change in our reforestation strategies towards a productive alternative. After more than 10 years of deforestation with timber trees and carbon fixers, a long time working the land to capture more moisture and give our trees a good future, we can finally have a controllable water source where it will allow us to care of trees with higher maintenance needs.How do we plan to achieve this goal?&nbsp;In the first third of funding, we plan to derive $3,000 from the purchase of mature, potentially fruit-bearing trees that come from a local production source. With this amount of money we calculate to buy approximately 300 trees that meet our design requirements. If you know Rhiannon, you know that the&nbsp;fundamental annual goal for this time of year is to&nbsp;plant 1000 trees and although we would love&nbsp; to achieve this goal, we are prepared to&nbsp; make a sacrifice and plant fewer trees but&nbsp;with a vision of fruit and&nbsp;vegetable production through an agroforestry design&nbsp;that we are working on at the moment. We plan to use the second third of financing, the next US$3,000, for the sustainable management of water resources. We are clear that when the irrigation water service begins (estimated February/March 2023), they will give us a maximum flow of 27000 liters/day, which gives us a quantifiable reference to plan a reservoir that would be maintained with a constant flow in order to design an new watering system. Our plan is to create a collection reservoir in the highest topographical area of ​​the land, this reservoir is our multidisciplinary link, this is where we find the sustainable cycle where, through excavating a reservoir, we will be able to harvest materials for a construction that we plan to execute from December to January/February.&nbsp;&nbsp;On our last third of our financing expectation is our "Guide House" a housing space for 2 people who assume the long-term commitment and have or have acquired the skills of facilitator / resident guide. We are very excited to use the last part of our financing plan in this construction, our intention is to buy materials, both wood to structure and cover the roof. The objective of this construction is to design with the vision of demonstrating different styles of structure, filling, insulation, where as an example we can mention “Bahareque” “Quincha Mejorada” “thermal barriers with clay/straw” “thermal masses with different soil mixtures” “use of glass bottles for filling” “use of eco-bricks”. So as a summary, we invite you to support us financially in this brave journey towards a space with productive infrastructure, with collection and conscious use of water and care of the beings who come to give their lives and their energies in these beautiful projects of conservation and commitment with the environment.&nbsp;What are we going to do with this money?&nbsp;Stage 1&nbsp;- Purchase fruit trees&nbsp;- Create a space for their environmental adaptation during a short-term period - Tools and materials for execution: wheelbarrows, shovels, soil, fertilizer.&nbsp;Stage 2&nbsp;- Execute the installation of an irrigation water reservoir.&nbsp;- Soil movement towards the new construction space.&nbsp;- Irrigation systems, pipes, connections and drip lines.&nbsp;Stage 3&nbsp;- Purchase of construction materials (structure wood, ecological roof, miscellaneous) - Execution of foundation, rental of machines, potential employment of local workers. - Fencing and finishes (guadúa, wood, glass) ideally recycled.---------------------------------------------------------

Rhiannon Community presenta este sueño ante la comunidad! 
Con mucha ilusión, les contamos que, para finales de 2022, estamos trabajando duro en un triple proyecto que intenta articular actividades de una manera multidisciplinaria: Agroforestería, colecta de agua y construcción natural son las claves. Educación, compartires y cuidados de la madre tierra son nuestros pilares. Sostenibilidad nuestro anhelo.
Como habrán visto en nuestros videos, nos sobran razones para iniciar un proyecto con este nivel de ambición, nuestra región ha llegado finalmente a la ejecución de las tuberías de agua de riego, lo que nos permite iniciar un compromiso de conservación diferente, vamos a hacer un pequeño cambio en nuestras estrategias de re-forestación hacia una alternativa productiva. Después de más de 10 años
de deforestación con árboles maderables y de inyección de carbono, de mucho tiempo trabajando la tierra para capturar mejor humedad y poder darles un buen porvenir a nuestros árboles, finalmente podremos tener una fuente de aguacontrolable donde nos va a permitir trabajar arboles con mayor necesidad de mantenimiento.¿Como pensamos lograr este objetivo? 
En el primer tercio de financiamiento, planeamos derivar 3000 u$d a compra de árboles maduros, que potencialmente presenten fruta y vengan de una fuente de producción local. Con esta cantidad de dinero calculamos comprar aproximadamente 300 árboles que cumplan con nuestros requisitos de diseño.Si conoces Rhiannon, sabes que el objetivo fundamental anual para esta época del año es plantar 1000 árboles y aunque nos encantaría lograr este objetivo, estamos preparados para hacer un sacrificio y plantar menos arboles pero con una visión de producción de frutas y hortalizas a través de un diseño de agroforestería en el que estamos trabajando&nbsp; en este momento.

El segundo tercio de financiamiento, los próximos 3000 u$d, tenemos planeado utilizarlos para lo que respecta a manejo sostenible de recursos hídricos, tenemos claro que cuando el servicio de agua de riego inicie (estimado febrero/marzo 2023) nos van a entregar un caudal máximo de 27000 lts/dia, lo que nos da una referencia cuantificable para planificar un reservorio que se mantendría con caudal constante para poder diseñar un plan de tuberías de riego. Nuestro plan es crear un reservorio de colección en la zona topográfica más alta del terreno, este reservorio es nuestro vinculo multidisciplinario, aquí es donde encontramos el ciclo sostenible donde a través de excavar un reservorio, podremos cosechar materiales para una construcción que tenemos planeada ejecutar desde diciembre hasta enero/febrero.
Lo que nos posiciona en el último tercio de nuestra expectativa de financiamiento, nuestra “Casa de guías” un espacio de vivienda para 2 personas que asuman el compromiso de largo plazo y tengan o hayan adquirido las capacidades de facilitador/guía residente. Nos emociona mucho utilizar la última parte de nuestro plan de financiamiento en esta construcción, nuestra intención es comprar materiales
tanto sea maderas para estructurar y la cobertura del techo. El objetivo de esta construcción es diseñar con la visión de demostrar diferentes estilos de estructura, relleno, insolaciones, donde como modo de ejemplo podemos mencionar “Bahareque” “Quincha Mejorada” “barreras térmicas con paja/arcilla” “masas térmicas con diferentes mezclas de tierra” “utilización de botellas de vidrio
para relleno” “utilización de eco-ladrillos”.Entonces como resumen, les invitamos a apoyarnos financieramente en este valiente viaje hacia un espacio con infraestructura productiva, con colección y utilización consciente del agua y cuidado de los seres que vienen a entregar sus vidas y sus energías en estos proyectos tan hermosos de conservación y compromiso con el medio ambiente.

¿Que vamos a hacer con este dinero?
Etapa 1
- Comprar árboles frutales- Crear un espacio para su adaptación ambiental durante un periodo de corto plazo- Herramientas y materiales para la ejecución: carretillas, palas, suelo, abono.
Etapa 2- Ejecutar la instalación de un reservorio de aguas de riego.- Movimiento de suelo hacia el nuevo espacio de construcción.- Sistemas de riego, tuberías, conexiones y líneas de goteo.
Etapa 3- Compra de materiales de construcción (maderas estructura, techo ecológico, miscelánea)- Ejecución de fundación, alquileres de máquinas, potencial empleo a trabajadores locales.- Cerramiento y finalizados (guadúa, maderas, vidrios) idealmente reciclados.

The idea of this project is to collect and manage resources using a multi-sig as a governance method between the leaders of the 3 active Ethereum communities in Colombia, to sustain and help to grow the efforts related to education and adoption of blockchain technologies in the Country.At this moment, there are few direct expenses related to hosting the Ethereum communities, as because of COVID-19 all events have been virtual and we only pay for subscriptions like zoom and meetups (Antioquia, Bogotá y Caribe).But we hope that things get better this year (looking forward DEVCON 6) and we want to be prepared to be able to host local events, organize and sustain workflows, design community projects, and make some merchandising for the ETH Colombia Community.For that, we are asking the Ethereum Broad Ecosystem funds to make the best possible community in Colombia, to promote the social impact of blockchain and keep incentivizing decentralized developments in LATAM and the Caribbean.Ethereum Antioquia: Youtube - TwitterEthereum Bogotá: Youtube - TwitterEthereum Caribe: Youtube - Twitter

AchievementsReturn to Green hosted one of the first metaverse events for the&nbsp;regenerative finance movement. This event brought in 5.3 eth to Giveth projects around the world focused on the environment through an NFT auction featuring art from 48 artists. The second event helped to bring in funds through a digital artist's first ever NFT exhibition and auction, with funds going to mental health organizations on Giveth. EthSantiago streamed their event into the metaverse and the community has grown to 159 Twitter followers and a 49 person Telegram. NowReturn to Green will move away from events being the only thing that the organization does. Now it is working on the creation of an NFT marketplace that'll give artists the ability to support public good projects on Giveth whenever they'd like.

Under the increasing climate emergency pressure, the regrò project aims to connect land owners, farmers and growers, interested in sharing resources to build resilient agro-ecologic systems through Regenerative and Conservation Agriculture, Permaculture and non-invasive practices.&nbsp;Our website: www.projectregro.comYour contribution will help fund:The expansion of Simon’s farm, his food forest and regeneration projects, including the re-introduction of native plants such as bambooPart of the materials needed for fencing the Assisted Natural Regeneration (ANR) area in Tuscany, and actively protecting its inhabitants and visitors from hunting and other destructive practices (per Italian law, every non-fenced territory is free hunting area even if privately owned, with the only restriction for active cultivations, and ecosystem restoration is not considered an agricultural practice)&nbsp;The materials to bring water to the ANR area: this will kick-start the Soil Regeneration program as well, with the installation of wooden slopes amended with humus and vermicompost, which in turn will allow a sensible increase of the local humidity.The research and sharing work that will keep benefiting both active regro projects and future onesProject Showcase 1: fencing in Kenya, recycling and protecting the land&nbsp;Why is fencing important?Simon raises free-range chickens and geese, so fencing is crucial to provide the birds with a predator-free environment and to prevent them to wander too far away from the farm.Pilot area: Simon bought fence poles from a local producer of recycled plastic objects, installed the poles and the net, and planted roses, durantas, some palms and Carissa edulis he gathered in the wild.Project Showcase 2: wildlife water station in Tuscany, a big help for small beingsWhy are water stations important?&nbsp;Drought and soil erosion are two important driving factors of ecosystem decline in the Maremma region in Southern Tuscany. Wildlife, from bees to foxes, are dependent on rainfall for their survival during the increasingly dry months: small water stations made of recycled containers can greatly benefit -even save- their lives.Pilot area:Under the oaks’ shade at the very beginning of the forest, we created the first pilot area of regro’ in Italy in 2019. The primary goal here is to augment the Soil Organic Matter since this plot was heavily roamed by domestic pigs for at least a decade before we started stewarding the land. In the very first season, we introduced aromatic plants: Thyme, Sage, Mint, Summer savory and Lavender, and tested agroforestry beds under the trees' canopy.During the second season we added a stable water supply that feeds the water station and, through a dropping system, the plants and moss at the edge of the forest: we hope in this way to re-connect the depleted mycorrhizae net and attract all the actors necessary to re-grow a healthy ecosystem.Next steps, how your contribution will help:&nbsp;More recycled, local materials containers will be installed for small animals such as insects, turtles and other reptiles, birds + water stations for bigger animals, such as boars and roe deer, and for endangered birds (European turtle dove) already nesting in the ANR area.Project Showcase 3: agroecology farm in Croatia, a place to grow and make artMarko has joined regro in 2022 with his land in Croatia. He is funding this project with his own finances and sharing his journey and art with the regrò community ever since.&nbsp;To increase wildlife and soil health, much work is in preparation to be ready to sow beneficial plants.&nbsp;Pilot area:On his land in Istria region, Marko and his family are working to re-introduce native herbs and bushes.Next steps, how your contribution will help:&nbsp;Marko wants to keep learning about agroecology within the regrò network and expand his artistic practice using the materials he's discovering on his land. Your contribution will fund the research and sharing benefiting Marko's practices, while we will all enjoy the new art he will create.Meet the farmers: Simon in Kenya&nbsp;- Serena in Italy&nbsp;- Marko in CroatiaFarmers on the blockchainWe met on dada.art, a collaborative art platform, and through drawing together we discovered our love for nature and the land. In the early crypto art movement, we found supporting friends who helped greatly the regrò project development.Thanks to this net of artists, gardeners and technicians we expanded our knowledge about regenerative practices in agriculture, the blockchain role in monitoring, verifying and reporting and regenerative finance.&nbsp;Meet the land: Nyandarua - KenyaMeet the land: Maremma - ItalyOur partnersSince regro’s first steps, many entities have been crucial in its development: the cryptoart community with prominent artists and thinkers, but also inspiring organizations such as dada.art, Open Forest Protocol and Blockchain for Social Impact.Our website: www.projectregro.com&nbsp;~ Free downloadable POAP Mantis papertoy ~&nbsp;Download it from the POAP: https://poap.gallery/event/73043~ new beehive in Nyandarua ~&nbsp;

Unleashing the potential of local youth to transform social challenges into social enterprises. Njombe Innovation Academy replicates the social innovation academy (SINA) model in Njombe (Tanzania).DescriptionNjombe region´s main economic activities are agriculture (76.3% of GDP) and livestock keeping. Local youth have few employment opportunities. Around 10% are unemployed and face unfavourable conditions to become entrepreneurs; hence, they usually engage in informal and unstable income-generating activities such as “mishe mishe” (daily small jobs) or seasonal farming. Youth who have not completed secondary or higher education (41% are out of school in secondary) are the most affected since they lack the skills and network to create or find decent income-generating activities. At the same time, Njombe faces social challenges such as malnutrition (levels of stunting are 49.4 %), HIV (11.4% prevalence) or poverty (GDP/capita 10% lower than the national level).Could we create an environment where local youth gain the tools and mindset to transform the challenges that surround them into social enterprises? SINA has the answer.&nbsp;The SINA model has proven that through a cost-effective and “freesponsible” community approach, marginalized youth can become self-reliant and can create a future for themselves through social enterprises, which in turn disrupt the root causes of social problems. Skills are gained by taking up responsibilities within self-organization in a SINA community. Youth grow personally and professionally while putting learned tools immediately into practice.Social enterprises which emerged range from organic mosquito repellant soap to construction out of plastic bottles or a flooring solution from plastic bags and eggshells. SINA scholars have gone as far as being recognized by the Queen of England, Obama or Ban Ki-moon as changemakers and social entrepreneurs.This model has already been replicated in countries other than its origin, Uganda; thus, planting a “SINA model seed” in Njombe will probably lead to additional self-organized spaces for social entrepreneurship across Tanzania.The ecosystem in Njombe is ready for SINA: there is political will, learning spaces and technologies, innovators and the interest of local youth who are already paying to attend training offered by Mzee Pwagu and SHIPO. A social innovation academy will be the space to bring together local (young) actors, provide them with additional skills and create a self-sustaining ecosystem that turns local challenges into social enterprises.&nbsp;&nbsp;Theory of ChangeThe desired impact is an increased number of social challenges tackled in Njombe by youth-led enterprises with locally available resources. In order to achieve that we will bootstrap a self-organised community of youth in Njombe who commonly owns and manages resources (material, knowledge, financial, social) to create social enterprises out of challenges (outcome). It is assumed that the potential and leadership to create positive social and environmental impact of local youth will be unleashed through the SINA model.Expected outputs after 2 years:10 local youth (scholars) are capacitated to become coaches and mentors of future cohorts (3 in Uganda and 7 in Njombe). It is assumed that scholars trained in Uganda have incentives to create a SINA community in Njombe.At least 20 scholars trained per year who create 5 social enterprises per year. It is assumed that successful scholars and enterprises have incentives to continue to contribute to the SINA community in Njombe.Mechanisms for the sustainability of the academy are in place. It is assumed that those mechanisms create the required culture (freedom and responsibility, knowledge sharing and mutual support, shared finances, shared materials and space, teamwork &amp; collaboration) for the sustainability of the community.Milestones&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3 young people from Njombe complete SINA´s 5 stage replication process in Uganda - 8,000 USDSpace and materials ready in Njombe, including water, food and electricity provision systems - 20,000 USD1st and 2nd cohorts of scholars in Njombe - 15,000 USD1st social enterprise registered in NjombeAn enterprise has a 2 million TZS turnover1st cohort of certified trainersSecured funding to run another yearStrategic approach &amp; sustainability2-3 youth (at least 1 woman) will stay at SINA in Uganda for 9 months to become equipped with all the skills and tools necessary to replicate the model in Njombe. In the meantime, in Njombe, the learning space will be arranged, materials will be procured, SINA Njombe will be registered, local mentors and coaches will be selected and a selection process will be carried out to select 20 participants of the first cohort in Njombe. At least 50% of the selected participants will be women, 15% will be people with disabilities and all of them will come from marginalised and/or poor backgrounds.Within NIA´s first 2 years, two cohorts of scholars will undergo SINA´s empowerment process (one cohort each year) while living together and co-creating a self-organised, commons-based, feminist and transparent community with open source principles, benefiting from the experience of those youth who stayed in Uganda. Their enterprises will then move into the incubation phase. Before the second cohort starts a “train-the-trainer” training will take place where scholars will get ready to become the life-coaches, mentors, training facilitators and self-management trainers of the second cohort.In the short term we will look for donations (e.g. local business people). In the medium term social enterprises "born" at NIA will be the main source of income, with donations matched by Panvala and we will experiment with tokenisation or community currencies.Implementation arrangementsLocal youth are the key project agents: they are not “passive beneficiaries” but active agents who lead the creation of a SINA community in Njombe. The other agents offer a conducive environment and provide support and expertise in required topics. This arrangement has already been successfully implemented to replicate SINA communities in Zimbabwe or DRC, to mention a few. It allows youth to gain skills by taking up responsibilities within self-organization in a SINA community and to grow personally and professionally while putting learned tools immediately into practice.All the agents will walk the talk and self-organise with Holacracy, a SHIPO representative filling the lead link role. All the agents will walk the talk and self-organise with Holacracy. Hence, decision-making (including the chanelling of funds) will be consent-based and transparent.Transparency Gnosis safe main multisig wallet: 0x308Fd8FB79379dEAD5A360FFb6Dd2D1AFf9F5EE4Wallet addres for Giveth: 0xAb2456B5758C0d7f4272151eFb56cb7643CA7E30Team:SHIPO: implementing agency, project coordination.
