### ReFi Mexico's Utilization and Support of the Celo Ecosystem

We have been working on an NFT minter that will evolve into a marketplace, with thoughtful documentation that contributes to the state of the art in tokenomics and framework design. We are developing and adapting a template for the regenerative community marketplace.

So far, we have onboarded several stakeholders, such as greenhouses, farmers, artists, and more, and we are mapping a network state of impact in Mexico. This will eventually become a full-fledged marketplace (e-commerce) for regenerative products and services. We are building and experimenting with concepts, actions, connecting channels, and regenerative literature to create a comprehensive platform for the community.

**Utilizing the Celo Ecosystem:**

- **NFT Minter and Marketplace:** Our evolving NFT minter and marketplace will be built on the Celo platform, leveraging its blockchain technology to ensure transparency, security, and scalability.

- **Tokenomics and Framework Design:** By contributing to the state of the art in tokenomics and framework design, we aim to set new standards for regenerative finance within the Celo ecosystem.

- **Stakeholder Onboarding:** We have successfully onboarded various stakeholders, including greenhouses, farmers, and artists, to our community, and they are ready to dive into the Celo ecosystem, facilitating their transition to blockchain-based solutions. We have also hosted 3 events featuring the Celo logo as a Quadratic Funding (QF) sponsor for previous Gitcoin rounds. We have experimented with organizing an IRL Marketplace that aligns with our project development and successfully collaborated with over 13 impact communities from different parts of Mexico and the world.

**Future Roadmap:**
- **Integration with Celo's DeFi Tools:** We plan to integrate Celo's decentralized finance (DeFi) tools to provide alternative funding mechanisms for local projects, enhancing financial inclusion and economic resilience.
- **Educational Initiatives:** Organizing workshops and events to educate the community about the benefits of Celo's blockchain technology and its applications in regenerative finance.
- **Collaboration and Partnerships:** Forming strategic partnerships within the Celo ecosystem to foster innovation and share resources, amplifying our impact on climate solutions.
- **Pilot Projects:** Implementing pilot projects that utilize Celo's blockchain for specific use cases, such as water harvesting systems and sustainable agriculture practices.
- **Grant Applications:** Actively seeking grants and funding opportunities within the Celo ecosystem to support the development and scaling of our initiatives.

By integrating with the Celo ecosystem, we aim to enhance our technological capabilities and increase community engagement, driving sustainable development through innovative and decentralized solutions.
