Solution

Research, analysis, and evaluation of the Catalyst ecosystem, develop bespoke, custom dedicated strategies ready for implementation

Problem

The proposal ecosystem is vast and no one strategy fits all, especially for evolving tech like Cardano

Addresses Challenge
Feasibility
Auditability
Strategy Framework - AIM

(https://cardano.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Proposals-Mentors-Marketplace-Cont/382926-48088)) as well as external accelerators

2. Database implementation with UI/UX

6 months: Strategy Frameworks being used to successfully help and facilitating the match up of 10 funded proposers with accelerators external to Catalyst

12 months: Strategy Frameworks being used to successfully help and facilitating the match up of 25 funded proposers with accelerators external to Catalyst

Deliverables and KPIs 3 months:

- Database with all funded proposals (approximately 500 proposals), tagged and filter options

- Strategy documents

- Presentation of results and strategy at community events (ie. Town Hall, Swarm…)

- Funded proposal form - we will design a form that we will recommend to the Catalyst team be sent to funded proposals after each fund and that will continue and populate/update the database

The impact will be ongoing as it will be a supporting tool for decision-making and partnerships. We might need in the future to improve & maintain the database as well as promote it regularly to funded proposals, mainly through the multiple communities and community channels.

Team:

The proposal team has already experienced working together from Fund 6.

This proposal is part of the Cardano AIM (Assembly Inspiring Masses) umbrella, which brings together active Catalyst Community members to design and build tools that support the community. Some examples: include the popular voter-tool (https://cardanocataly.st/voter-tool/#/), the Community Advisor Tools (CA and vCA-tools) (https://cardanocataly.st/ca-tool/#/ & https://cardanocataly.st/vca-tool/#/)))) as well as the Community Landing Page (https://cardanocataly.st/). AIM continues to focus on developing the best services and tools for the benefit of the Cardano community.

Budget:

Collection of data = $2500

Analysis of data = $1500

Database & UI/UX = $1500

Strategy research and report/ external and internal opportunities = $1500

Database management $500/month for 6 month: $3000

Total budget = $10,000

The requested budget is about 2% of the total challenge and it will support the overall activities of funded proposals in this challenge and help them be more effective.

Affiliate proposals:

Here are our two affiliated funded proposals for Fund 6:

Research in Applying Frameworks-AIM <https://cardano.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Research-in-Applying-Frameworks-AIM/369294-48088>

Add SDG ratings to proposals - AIM

<https://cardano.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Add-SDG-ratings-to-proposals-AIM/367569-48088>

The analysis of the proposals shows a vast relationship to SDGs. 27% of Fund 6 funded proposals are directly related to SDGs and 69% are indirect. The reason is that Blockchain technology in general and the objective of Cardano, in particular, is making the world more transparent, traceable, and accessible which all support SDGs objectives.

The information was already useful to share with external and internal sources

- The results were already presented at the Catalyst Sustainability Goals meetup <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAPUIlLFYio> hosted by Cardano4Climate

- Results communicated to IOG impact team

- Discussion for collaboration with <https://positiveblockchain.io/>

- In talks with Frontiers Journal (Blockchain for Sustainable Development Goals Journal)

- Seedstars.com have 7 proposals for fund 7

We will be developing the database and UI so relevant stakeholders can filter the information as a support tool for media, decision-making, and collaborations.

The information from these proposals will be added to the database as well.

SDG goals alignment (based on AIM Proposer SDG tool - https://cardanocataly.st/proposer-tool-sdg):**:)

Goal 17. Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development

SDG subgoals:

17.16 Enhance the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development, complemented by multi-stakeholder partnerships that mobilize and share knowledge, expertise, technology and financial resources, to support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals in all countries, in particular developing countries

17.6 Enhance North-South, South-South and triangular regional and international cooperation on and access to science, technology and innovation and enhance knowledge-sharing on mutually agreed terms, including through improved coordination among existing mechanisms, in particular at the United Nations level, and through a global technology facilitation mechanism

17.9 Enhance international support for implementing effective and targeted capacity-building in developing countries to support national plans to implement all the Sustainable Development Goals, including through North-South, South-South and triangular cooperation

Key Performance Indicator (KPI):

17.16.1 Number of countries reporting progress in multi-stakeholder development effectiveness monitoring frameworks that support the achievement of the sustainable development goals
