On VoiceDeck, organizations cannot raise more money than the impact they have created.\n\n* Since launching on October 18 2024, we have had $138 in purchases from 16 donors to support civic activists in India with a history of outcomes\n\n* We have had a significant [fork](https://github.com/VoiceDeck) of our approach, with GainForest.Earth launching [‘Ecocertain’](https://www.ecocertain.xyz/) (a marketplace to fund environmental impact) & hosting their own community round this GG ‘23 cycle\n\n* VoiceDeck’s work has been documented as a [peer reviewed paper](https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3678884.3687146) at ACM CSCW and a [blog post](https://nxbn.ethereum.foundation/fellowship/Devansh) on the Ethereum website\n\n**What’s Next?**\n\n* In partnership with [Normie Tech](https://normie.tech/), as of March 30 2025, the option to pay with fiat (credit/debit cards/Paypal) is enabled, allowing donors beyond web3 to donate seamlessly\n\n* The Organized Crime & Corruption Reporting Project ([OCCRP](https://www.occrp.org/en)) has reached out to have their key stories, including reporting on the Panama papers, listed & evaluated on VoiceDeck as impact certificates for purchase\n\n* Multiple donors have said they prefer donating to an ongoing cause rather than one already achieved, so we are working to integrate a prospective funding mechanism with retroactive impact certificates, wherein:\n\n* We list stories that haven't yet converted to an impact for donors to fund\n\nExample: an investigative report exposing the deplorable & unusable state of roads in a neighbourhood in Bombay\n\n* We use the money raised to pay an action team that works on ground to ensure the story creates an impact\n\nExample: the action team pressures the local government & associated bodies & takes all measures necessary to get the road fixed & resolve the issue raised in the story within a timeframe\n\n* Once an investigation causes some tangible outcome it gets listed as an impact certificate to close the loop for donors\n\n* We know from our experience working with the citizen journalism outlet CGNet Swara in Central India that currently only 10% of stories result in impact. Our main KPI with this approach is increasing the conversion rate propelling information reports on civic problems to concrete solutions impacting communities", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectGithub": "VoiceDeck", "projectTwitter": "VoiceDeckDAO"}, "recipient": "0x1Bbb050ed5C075d9933164a33e6f56034bcA667A"}}
