**Current/Previous Work**

- We currently aggregate Web3 grant program news in two places: our ReFi news feed and our weekly ReFi recaps. 

- For the GG20 climate round, we did [an analysis](https://carboncopy.news/features/breaking-down-gg20-climate-round-ccn/) of the results and hosted an X Space with Coleen Chase and Jon Ruth of Climate Coordination Network to discuss the round in more detail.

- We covered the launch of the Gitcoin Grants Canvas launch with [an article](https://carboncopy.news/features/painting-ecosystem-success-gitcoin-launches-grants-program-canvas/) by Tereza Bizkova.

- In February, we published the [State of ReFi Report](https://carboncopy.news/reports/The%20State%20of%20ReFi%20Report%202024.pdf). In it, we highlighted public goods funding through Web3 grant programs as a core component of ReFi.

- A feature of our recently launched ReFi project database is that each project gets its own profile page. We're in the process of integrating fundraising data from Web3 grant programs. So far, we've added climate round data from GG17 through GG20 and Celo H1 data. An example can be found here: [Kokonut Network](https://carboncopy.news/project/kokonut-network/).


**Plans**

- After publishing [an article](https://carboncopy.news/features/nigerian-ngo-funding-dilemma-web3-grants-traditional-donors/) about Web3 grant funding for grassroots NGOs in Nigeria, we received requests for a guide on how to get started in Web3 grants. We also plan to set up a small community to gather Nigerian NGOs together. We are currently in the process of completing these two things. If they work, we can look to expand to other parts of Africa and beyond.

- We plan to continue posting Web3 grant news on our channels and provide analysis of the climate round for GG21.

- In the 2025 edition of the State of ReFi report, we will create a dedicated section for Web3 grants with data-driven insights and statistics. The model we really want to highlight is the idea that Web3 grant mechanisms are the solution to taking the $10+ million that large donors want to give and distributing it across hundreds and thousands of grassroots projects.

- We will continue adding more Web3 grant fundraising data to our database, including Octant, PotLock, Optimism, Arbitrum, and other Gitcoin Grant rounds.

- We would also like to host Cartographer Syndicate content on CARBON Copy, especially analysis about the Web3 grant ecosystem.
