> There are a few ways that ZuForever measures the impact of this project. First, through its monetary criteria. By allowing us to utilize economies of scale and ample time, we offer Zuzalians accessibility to top-tier accommodation offers. Money saved is a core metric for this.

In addition, by allowing these economies of scale to work in our favor, we also provide additional, and much needed, accessibility to underprivileged members of the community through ecosystem funded scholarships. Through our partner dVillage, we have proven that we can support underprivileged members of the broader Ethereum community by facilitating sponsorship and scholarships covered by partner DAOs and Protocols, providing such community members ZuForever accommodation options for free! Scholarships, therefore, are a key impact metric for us.

Furthermore, we seek to ensure that long lasting relationships are built, and that our community members participate in conference-associated hackathons, and push to continue moving their projects forward, especially for teams that have gained hackathon awards and recognition. Post-hackathon metrics are also important metrics for us.  

Lastly, ZuForever will be hosting tailored workshops for team participants within their living stations, and we will be calculating attendance as a metric of success. Getting our community members the access they need is important to ZuForever’s mission, and, as such, workshop attendance is also an important metric for us to track.  

Ultimately, some of our impact will be immeasurable, yet important. Recruitment of new community members into the Web3 and Ethereum ecosystems is hard to measure, as are jobs and hiring opportunities that get covered through ZuForever’s activities. We will continue to hone into our preferred metrics, seeking to find the most effective truth for the long term success of the ZuForever DAO.

In short, our metrics are: 

- Money Saved
- Community Members 
- Requests for Accomodations
- Hackathon Teams
- Hackathon Team Winnings
- Hackathon Team - Post Event Tractions (Fundraising, TVL, Number of Contributors)
- Attendees to ZuForever Workshops and Gatherings
- Non-Web3 Community Members recruited.
