Quadratic Funding is the mechanism we use to distribute funds based on community participation! With Quadratic Funding, the number of contributors matters more than the amount funded by each contributor, which pushes power (and responsibility!) to the edges.When you pair QF with matching pool funds, you can get some pretty amazing results: the financial impact of your donation can be far higher than your individual donation! We’ve heard quite a few gasps of skepticism….is this too good to be true? At times, we see matching funds as high as 20-50x! This is not a bug!

Hey @everyone! Cohere has been accepted into Gitcoin‘s Grant Round 14, in the Climate Solutions category! :tada:
Gitcoin is the leading web3 crowdfunding platform that supports the democratic funding of public goods. Gitcoin's Climate Solutions funding round (which will take place from **June 8th-June 23rd**) is all about impact; the kind of impact that Cohere wants to make through on-site regenerative practices and economic/governance structure powered by web3.
Gitcoin works like other crowdfunding platforms you might be familiar with (think Kickstarter and Indiegogo), but uses a fund matching mechanism based on community participation. This model places **more** precedence on the diversity of contributors rather than the amount funded by each contributor; many hands makes light work! Add Gitcoin's matched funding to the mix, and we can see matches up to **20-50x** what we raise on our own!

(OPTIONAL) Background on Cohere (two sentences): Cohere is a community-owned network of regenerative innovation hubs that combine the value of owning a home, the freedom of renting and a sense of belonging wherever you go. Cohere provides spaces that empower innovators to create regenerative solutions that enable a new way of living.
climate solutions round GR14):
The Climate Solutions round is an opportunity to support projects from around the world at the cutting edge of innovative climate solutions.
Gitcoin works like crowdfunding you might be familiar with already (think Kickstarter and Indiegogo), but it uses a funding mechanism based on community participation. In their funding model, the number of contributors matters more than the amount funded by each contributor; many hands makes light work!

Copy from Josh:
Gitcoin's Climate Solutions funding round is all about impact; the kind of impact that Cohere wants to make through on-site regenerative practices and governance structure empowered by Web3 technology. Shared ownership and governance is attractive to both experts in the field of climate science, and the people on the ground doing the work to protect and restore our world.
Cohere is seeking to acquire, protect, and develop land in tandem with the stewards who live and operate there. Importantly, developing the cohere governance DAO will allow the community of owners to make and promote proposals on how to best affect change. The world is full of people looking to help bring or earth back into balance, and Cohere wants to bring them all together under one roof.
Favors a diverse subset of contributions and helps balance large capital influence and collusion.
