Dadiva aims to expand the connections between the tragedy of the commons problem in public goods funding in Brazil and new onchain capital allocation mechanisms.
In Brazil, social and environmental impact projects face funding challenges. Most initiatives depend exclusively on seasonal public grants or sponsorship from private sectors.
The lack of funding mechanisms results in an unequal distribution, favoring those projects with greater institutional connections or capacity in bureaucratic processes. Onchain capital allocation ecosystem has developed novel tools, such as quadratic funding and coordination protocols.
However, these mechanisms remain inaccessible to most Brazilian entrepreneurs due to knowledge, technology, and infrastructure barriers.
A metaphor which goes: in the olden days, there is a commons which is owned by everyone, but the problem is that if everyone uses it, the commons will become completely unusable due to overuse. Zoë Hitzig says:
Why are these public goods so important? Well, let’s think about what sorts of things satisfy these definitions. Some of them are pieces of infrastructure that we really couldn’t live without. Everyone needs a lighthouse in the harbour to signal to the boats finding their way back, but, at the same time, no one wants to take responsibility for building the lighthouse.
What if we could educate the public about a new capital allocation mechanism? A system where the value of a contribution is not determined by its amount, but by the supporters and community.
We want Dádiva to be a bridge between: Brazil's socio-environmental impact communities and onchain capital allocation mechanisms.
Access to Quadratic Funding: Deploy a capital allocation mechanism, such as Simple Grants, in the Allo v2 Protocol to Onboard Brazilian projects into funding.
Onchain Capital Allocation Mechanisms: Provide support and education for Brazilian projects in the ecosystem through the community treasury.
Coordination: Build new capital allocation and coordination mechanisms for public goods projects.
"A Flexible Design for Funding Public Goods": Contextualize quadratic funding as a mechanism for funding public goods for public policies at municipal, state and national levels.
"Quadratic Funding and Pluralist Economics in Brazil": Produce a academic paper that connects development challenges and the tragedy of the commons to quadratic funding as a mathematically optimal solution for allocating public goods in a democratic way.
"Onchain Capital Allocation Docs": to learn, build and implement a protocol that uses quadratic funding as a capital allocation mechanism. Bring together experiences of protocols in Portuguese, such as clr.fund, Gitcoin, Giveth, Allo.capital for researchers and builders new to the ecosystem.
Initial implementation of the Dádiva platform.
Mapping impact projects (cultural, environmental, educational areas).
Gathering onchain capital allocation and coordination mechanisms to present to projects.
Documentation of results and learnings from the concept phase.
Development of articles in Portuguese about quadratic funding mechanisms and onchain allocation.
Conducting in-person and virtual workshops throughout Brazil to train communities and local initiatives.
Acceleration of socio-environmental entrepreneurship projects with the Ethereum ecosystem.
Initial formation of Dádiva DAO.
Development and implementation of onchain governance mechanisms adapted to the Brazilian context.
Establishment of institutional partnerships with universities, research institutes, and local governments.
Development of the Grants platform.
Expansion of the platform to other regions of Brazil and Latin America, with customized solutions for regional challenges.
Integration with traditional financial systems to facilitate access and financial inclusion (Web 2.5).
Consolidation of Dádiva as essential and sustainable infrastructure for continuous funding of public goods in Brazil.
