Revision 2: Addition of Regional Focus Section
Section Changed: After Self Protocol section (new section added)
Change:
Removed: “”
Added: “Regional Focus
We recognize the important role that Regional DAOs play in identifying local challenges and onboarding builders. We will work closely with Regional Councils, Celo EU, CeLatam, and Celo Colombia to leverage their networks and ensure a diverse and impactful cohort. This collaboration will help us identify and support projects addressing real-world challenges in various regions and strengthen the overall Celo ecosystem.”
Justification:
- Primary supporting feedback: Priority #1 from @Joan_DeRB (SimScore 51%): “Thank you for putting together this proposal and for your continued work in supporting builders within the Celo ecosystem. Celo Camp has been instrumental in fostering innovation, and it’s great to see plans for another strong cohort. I wanted to share a few thoughts on how this initiative could be further strengthened.”
Additional supporting feedback:
- Priority #5 from @celoColombiano (SimScore 44%): “At Celo Colombia, we fully support the continuation of Celo Camp and recognize its tremendous impact in fostering innovation within the ecosystem.”
- Priority #21 from @Joan_DeRB (SimScore 37%): “On the focus areas (Minipay, CxAI, and Divvi), as you have mentioned, I believe Regional DAOs can play a key role in onboarding builders, supporting projects, and identifying real-world challenges that these technologies can help solve by having some boots on the ground. Leveraging these communities could expand outreach and ensure a strong pipeline of participants. We look forward to connecting through the Regional Council and Celo EU to contribute to this effort and help strengthen the ecosystem and your initiative.”
The change addresses the recommendation for regional collaboration to strengthen the initiative, as suggested by one of the highest scoring feedback items.
