Deadline: 28 June 2024
The CeLatam is excited to announce a Research Open call aligned with the mission to deepen understanding and drive actionable insights within the Celo ecosystem.
CeLatam aims to establish itself as a leading Think Tank focused on Web3 innovations in Latin America. This initiative invites founders in the Celo community to collaborate on bespoke research projects that address key trends, challenges, and opportunities in Latin America.
They are calling on founders and project leaders within the Celo ecosystem to propose topics that they believe need in-depth exploration in Latam. This is a unique opportunity to co-create knowledge that not only informs the community but also guides strategic decisions and innovations.
Themes
- While they are open to a wide range of topics, they are particularly interested in research that delves into:
- Stablecoins: Analyzing the role and stability mechanisms of stablecoins in Latin American economies.
- Real World Assets (RWAs): How blockchain technology can bridge the gap between digital and physical assets, enhancing liquidity and accessibility.
- Regenerative Finance (ReFi): Researching models that leverage blockchain to support sustainability and environmental goals.
How does it work?
- About the Research Grant: Three projects built on or currently building on Celo will each receive up to 1000 cUSD to conduct research alongside CeLatam’s team.
- Research Duration: Projects should complete their research within a maximum of three months. This timeframe includes the publication and promotional activities associated with the findings.
- Deliverable: Each project is required to produce a detailed report outlining research findings and recommendations.
- Extras: In addition to the research grant, each selected project will receive an additional 500 cUSD to partner with CeLatam in organizing a meet-up. This event will serve to disseminate and discuss the research outcomes, fostering greater engagement and visibility within the community.
Why you should apply?
- Collaborative Research Development: The chosen project will work alongside CeLatam’s team of researchers and analysts to develop the research.
- Visibility: Findings will be published and promoted within and beyond the Celo community, providing significant exposure to the collaborative project.
- Impact: Contribute to a body of knowledge that could significantly influence policy-making, project development, and investment strategies in Web3 spaces.
- Connect: Access a vibrant community and unlock opportunities to collaborate and network with like-minded founders and innovators throughout the Celo ecosystem.
Who should apply?
- Founders and project leaders within the Celo ecosystem with a track record of research on the topic of Web3 & Stablecoins, Real World Assets, and (or) Regenerative Finance.
