Gitcoin quadratic funding is Open for contributors to donate to impactful communities and solutions. Gitcoin will match contributions from individual donors with funds from the matching pools. Projects with a larger number of individual donors receive a higher proportion of matching funds compared to those with fewer donors.

Gitcoin is a platform that organizes funding for open-source projects and public goods in the blockchain and Web3 ecosystem each quarter of the year.

We will be spotlighting a few web3 organizations in Africa that are listed for Gitcoin grants.

1) DeSci Africa: In Africa, where the scarcity of scientists and operational laboratories poses significant challenges to scientific progress, DeSci Africa's initiatives hold particular promise. By promoting decentralized scientific methodologies and providing accessible educational resources, they aim to overcome barriers and provide support and opportunities for scientific advancement in the region.
