Web 3, Cardano4Good and Sustainability Impact Report 2024

Please describe your proposed solution.

Unique Impact: We have already carried out celebrated and unprecedented work:

“In an era where our world faces pressing challenges ranging from environmental degradation to social inequality, the search for innovative solutions has become more critical than ever. It is within this context that the intersection of values, blockchain technology, and positive impact emerges as a promising avenue for change.If you need a “potion” of hope and inspiration through "Proof of Real-Life Projects", I invite you to enjoy the Cardano Impact Report by the amazing Sustainable ADA”. - Dr Mihaela Ulieru, Blockchain Pioneer, President at IMPACT Institute, World Economic Forum Expert and Chief AI Alchemist at SingularityNet

“Get on the right side of history with Razali and read this book” - Jackie Driver OBE, Programmes Principal - Equality and Human Rights Commission

“Congratulations! This was a long time in the making and what you delivered is an outstanding achievement.” - Thorsten Pottebaum - Co-Founder of DLT 360

“This is a serious piece of work. Awesome work Sustainable ADA team. Crypto has a lot to learn from this.” - Sean Lynch, Founder - Open Litter Map, TEDX Speaker.

“Kudos and I commend you, Sustainable ADA, the barometer of Impact, for your work, and for really your efforts, which are titanic efforts in bringing this all together, to us, by studying, researching and collecting and organizing this collection of impact projects from the cardano community…this report showcases our values driven approach. The cardano community commitment to sustainability, social impact, governance and innovation. It exemplifies the potential of blockchain technology in fostering transparency , traceability and trust, ultimately leading to meaningful change” - Dr Mihaela Ulieru

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

With the idea taking shape since 2021, during 2022 and into part of 2023 Sustainable ADA undertook a great journey in creating the very first Cardano Impact Report 2023 “Recalibrating Value, Identity & Impact Through the Blockchain”.

We propose to create an edition with a wider scope. The Web3, Cardano and Sustainability Impact Report 2024. A comprehensive publication that aims to capture and showcase the positive impact generated by the Cardano community, and especially the unsung heroes who deserve a spotlight, and moreover to connect the dots with the wider blockchain4good and web3 ecosystem, in a research led and accessible publication, made available to the public at an affordable cost.

Who will benefit?

“For those who are not in the Cardano community, this report is not just about Cardano. This is about an awakening to the wider global issues we face today, and a clear call to action, that our time has come to address these issues, head on. The report offers a path forward towards a sustainable and equitable future. By engaging with the innovative projects and initiatives presented here, you can also contribute to positive change and find solutions to the complex issues that burden our world, and at a minimum get inspiration to create your own projects, wherever you are in the world, and you can count on our community to guide you.” - Dr Mihaela Ulieru, Blockchain Pioneer, President at IMPACT Institute, World Economic Forum Expert and Chief AI Alchemist at SingularityNet

We propose to create a publication that will enable diverse and multisectoral stakeholders to be armed with up-to-date knowledge and resources from the grassroots and the top down institutions around the world. This publication will be a valuable resource whether for a crypto veteran or a person new to the sector, but curious to understand how the dots connect between tech4good and real world impact, and for those looking for inspiration and a way to get involved with projects having a positive impact.

What is it?

The Web3, Cardano and Sustainability Impact Report will be a comprehensive publication that aims to capture and showcase the positive impact generated by the Cardano4Good and Web3 community at large. It will be designed as a book NFT (Non-Fungible Token) to leverage the unique features of the blockchain technology, ensuring authenticity, transparency, and immutability of the content. We will showcase art and original pieces from the Cardano4Good, web3 and impact community, and integrate the CIP-68 datum metadata standard to facilitate our plans to have dynamic NFTs.

Why it's important for Cardano, the community, and beyond?

Some may say that today, we live in both, the best of times and the worst of times.

With forest fires recently in Canada, protests against injustice in Paris, and the planet heating up to unprecedented levels…the world is on fire. Scientists have warned of worsening global warming. The Earth is getting so hot that temperatures in about a decade will probably blow past a level of warming that world leaders have sought to prevent.

According to the United Nations, we are in a “code red for humanity.

BUT, it’s not all doom and gloom, and there are solutions that exist today.

  • The Web3, Cardano4Good and Sustainability Impact Report 2024 will build upon the 2023 edition in playing a crucial role in highlighting and celebrating the social and environmental solutions and outcomes achieved by the Cardano community.

  • It serves as a testament to the transformative power of blockchain technology and its potential to drive positive change in various sectors, including finance, governance, sustainability, and social impact.

We believe that Cardano is making a step towards a world where new mechanisms of decentralized cooperation and consensus can start to replace the cheap-at-all-costs and business-as-usual structures that are degrading the world we live in.

The Web3, Cardano4Good and Sustainability Impact Report 2024 will play a crucial role in highlighting and celebrating not only the social and environmental impact and outcomes achieved by the Cardano community, but how in the wider blockchain4good and web3 ecosystem, this can be leveraged and synergized with allies and supporters to amplify and scale their respective impact. It shall serve as a testament to the transformative power of web3 and blockchain technologies and their potential to drive positive change in various sectors, including finance, governance, sustainability, and social impact.

Community Collaboration

The Web3, Cardano4Good and Sustainability Impact Report 2024 will be a collaborative effort involving active participation from various stakeholders within the Cardano4Good, Blockchain4Good, web3 and impact communities.

Sustainable ADA invites community members, project leaders, developers, researchers, and enthusiasts to contribute their insights, success stories, and expertise to make the Impact Report a comprehensive and inclusive representation of the wider community's and ecosystem achievements.

An Annual Report/Book

The Impact Report is published annually as a book NFT, providing a consolidated account of the progress, milestones, and impact generated by the Cardano ecosystem throughout the year. By adopting an annual format, it ensures that the Impact Report remains up-to-date, relevant, and reflective of the community's continuous growth and evolution.

Project Highlights of the Cardano Impact Report 2023 First Edition:

Sustainable ADA completed an in-depth analysis of the Cardano4Good community. We highlight over 65+ projects building within the Cardano and Singularitynet ecosystems, and those working to create a more equitable world for all through blockchain.

We showcased the values-driven approach of Cardano and its community's commitment to sustainability, regeneration, social impact, governance, and innovation. We highlighted projects that exemplify the potential of blockchain technologies and their ability to foster transparency, traceability, and trust, ultimately leading to meaningful change.

We featured artist and permaculture educator and activist Brenna Quinlan with cover art as part of our Legacy Edition Collection, and art within the report as part of our general collection. We also featured limited edition photography from our Sustainable ADA team to form part of the limited edition Legacy Collection (Cole, Affendi and Razali).

How does your proposed solution address the challenge and what benefits will this bring to the Cardano ecosystem?

Impact for Cardano:

Bring new people to the community and activate current community members through engagement, education, and awareness raising and grassroots community involvement.

Solve a key problem and issue of addressing the gap in knowledge and understanding of the use of Cardano for real world impact and evidence of use case application.

Awareness raising through education and prevention of FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt) by arming stakeholders with a researched and accessible document.

Advocacy and Policy (holding companies and stakeholders accountable, lobbying for pro dlt/blockchain/crypto friendly laws and regulation to support innovation for positive social and environmental impact etc).

Direct Services with the use of this report as a resource (eg: education, consulting, advice, community support, networking, future utility and rewards for holders of the report as a NFT).

What are the main goals for the project and how will you validate if your approach is feasible?

The Goal of the Web3, Cardano4Good and Sustainability Impact Report

The primary goal of the Impact Report is to provide a comprehensive overview of the value, identity, and impact created by not just the Cardano ecosystem. We aim to illustrate how it all connects to a bigger picture as part of a wider impact movement within web3 and beyond.

It aims to showcase the accomplishments, innovations, and initiatives undertaken by individuals, organizations, and projects within the Cardano community, the blockchain4good and web3 communities, highlighting their contributions to sustainable development and positive societal change.

Sustainable ADA’s long-term goals with the Impact Report

Impact Web3 and Sustainable ADA, as the social enterprises responsible for the Web3, Cardano4Good and Sustainability Impact Report, have several long-term goals associated with this initiative. These goals include:

1. Expanding our repository of success stories: The Impact Report aims to compile a collection of success stories, case studies, and best practices from within the Cardano community and wider blockchain4good and web3 communities. By sharing these experiences, it seeks to inspire and empower others to leverage blockchain technology for positive impact.

2. Building a comprehensive knowledge base: The Impact Report serves as a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and industry professionals interested in understanding the potential and impact of blockchain technology. It aims to foster knowledge exchange, collaboration, and innovation within the Cardano ecosystem and beyond!

Drive Cardano's Impact Ecosystem

The Impact Report aims to play a crucial role in driving the impact ecosystem of Cardano and attract purpose driven individuals, and positive environmental and social impact projects to collaborate for greater impact. By showcasing the positive outcomes and contributions of the community, it seeks to attract more stakeholders, investors, and collaborators to Cardano, fostering a vibrant and sustainable ecosystem that can address real-world challenges and create lasting change. The report aims to facilitate bridge building within the Cardano ecosystem and beyond.

Inspire and Onboard From Proof of Impact

Through the Impact Report, Sustainable ADA aims to inspire individuals, organizations, and projects to adopt a "Proof of Impact" mindset. By highlighting the measurable and meaningful impact achieved by the Cardano community, it seeks to onboard new participants who are motivated to create positive change and contribute to the sustainable development goals of Cardano and the “impact mob”.

Catalyst Journey:

We joined Project Catalyst, Cardano’s decentralized innovation fund, during fund 4. After applying and learning from both funds 4 and 5 along with lots of support from Cardano community members and teams, we were able to construct a strong proposal together that focused on our goals and ambitions for Sustainable ADA, and the Cardano community’s goals. We submitted a proposal focused on helping Grow Cardano, and Grow Africa.

With this funding, we had more capacity to focus on researching and sharing stories from change-makers in Africa and the diaspora, who are engaging with Cardano, creating a better tomorrow, today.

Thanks to the Cardano community and the use of their voting power from holding and staking ADA, we successfully secured the funding we were seeking. This helped us to take significant steps towards fulfilling our vision and mission having secured these crucial and helpful funds.

Through our time in the Project Catalyst ecosystem, we have been able to create a lot of strong and exciting partnerships with projects and businesses all across the world. This has led us to develop new ambitions for the work we do and to expand beyond education.

How does the cost of the project represent value for money for the Cardano ecosystem?

Given the first report we published was done voluntarily and unpaid, we are hoping with the support of the Catalyst community, we are enabled to continue our work with financial sustainability to spotlight the positive impact initiatives in the Cardano community and cardano4good ecosystem.

As we intend to sell the Web3 Impact Report as a NFT, we intend to reinvest the ADA into Sustainable ADA, pay for our overheads and incentivise further contributions and ecosystem collaboration and growth. This will lead to a positive return on intention, allowing us to continue our activities in awareness raising, advocating with research and evidence based decision making and impact monitoring, evaluation, verification and reporting.

The costs are justified and a modest ask given the average salaries for a graduate, and postgraduate researcher and Teacher in our sectors, and given our track record to date based out of the USA (Salt Lake City) and western Europe (London and Paris).
