This funding pool leverages conviction voting to allocate resources to the most impactful and community-supported contributions to our knowledge commons.\n\n### 🔹 **Local ReFi Toolkit**\n\nCreating and expanding practical toolkits, playbooks, and workshops that provide step-by-step guidance for communities to launch regenerative economies and initiatives using Web3 tools. These resources offer accessible frameworks for activities such as hosting empowering meetups, coordinating environmental projects, launching local credit pools, deploying regenerative digital infrastructure and more. Helping leaders turn Ethereum Localism into everyday action. The goal is to lower the barriers to entry, spread best practices, and empower a new generation of regenerative communities to build resilient local economies from the ground up.\n\n**Check more of the Local ReFi Toolkit** 👉 https://www.regencoordination.xyz/local-refi-toolkit\n\n### 🪙 $Regen Token\n\nWe’re adopting the $Regen token from [Regen Network](https://www.regen.network/) to connect our communities through **cross‑ecosystem stakes & participation**. [Now bridged to Celo, Base, and therefore the wider EVM via EcoBridge](https://bridge.eco/), $Regen lets members draft proposals and stake conviction. Voting follows a **one‑person‑one‑vote**: once you stake your $Regen, your wallet counts as a single voting unit — no extra weight for larger balances.\n\n### 🌱 Goals\n\n- **Coordinated‑decentralized knowledge commons** – Enable open contributions and transparent governance to grow a shared library of Local ReFi resources.\n- **Practical implementation & real‑world deployment of ReFi tools** – Fund and document case‑study pilots that test Toolkit components in real communities, deploying Web3 tools to drive place‑based regenerative action.\n- **Develop practical resources** – Support creation of clear toolkits, playbooks, and workshops for launching local regenerative economies.\n- **Foster knowledge sharing** – Spread best practices among contributors, local communities, and ReFi practitioners.\n- **Lower barriers to entry** – Produce accessible documentation, templates, and educational materials to onboard new communities.\n- **Resource compilation & network accessibility** – Aggregate guides and playbooks from Regen Coordination and aligned groups to drive cross‑pollination.\n\n### ✅ Eligibility Requirements\n\n- **Advance the Toolkit** – Clearly add, refine, or localize an open‑source resource (guide, playbook, code, or workshop) that communities can reuse.\n- **Documented impact** – Specify the tangible ecological, social, or economic outcome your activity aims to generate and outline how you will measure and share those results in your final deliverable.\n- **Collaboration focus (Optional)** – If it's a group initiative, highlight how it fosters synergy between multiple stakeholders - collaboration is promoted!\n- **Garden membership & allowlist** – The proposer’s wallet must be on the allowlist and have joined Regen Coordination’s Garden (thereby having staked the necessary amount of  $Regen tokens before).\n- **Maximum funding request:** Up to **2.5k USDGLO** (50% of the pool) per proposal - though proposals with higher funding requests require more (proportional) conviction to pass.\n- **Disputes:** Proposals that do not clearly demonstrate contribution to the Local ReFi Toolkit may be disputed and rejected by the Tribunal.\n", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "RegenCoordinate"}
