ReFi Costa Rica Regenerating our Optimism

Rifai  Sicilia

We are a community of regenerators bringing the Mediterranean back to life. Members host frequent workshops about permaculture, syntropic agroforestry, blockchain education, bioregionalism, and much more using the website mego.cx Balancing traditional customs, and modern digital technology, we are forging a unique path in how we design and grow a sovereign regenerative economy. Sicily is a top international tourist destination, so providing regenerative travel and work opportunities for visitors is a big part of the transition. Financial support received from Giveth will go directly to supporting the on-the-ground projects to bootstrap and kickstart their enterprise such as seed harvesting, building nursery, beach cleanups, and other initiatives. What We Do The previous round of doonations helped us host a weeklong ReFi event where we-Planted 400 moringa trees that will provide super nutritious food for humans, biomass for soil, and habitat for animals and insects. -Kickstarted the foundation of a syntropic Agroforestry food forest and incepted it's title, "Butterfly Hill". -Made over 500 seed balls with native species -Held activities at 6 different locations around the bioregion. -Used dMRV platform Silvi Protocol to log the planted trees using smart phones and drone imagery. -Created an agroforestry ecocredit with Sunflower Ecotech -Writing a library of Italian language regenerative finance and permaculture educational content. In the past 6 months, we have onboarded over 60 people with wallets and have issued over 120 NFT tickets on Mego.cx for participating in mutual aid events from tree plantings to beach cleanups. See the onchain community activity here <a href="https://dune.com/turinglabsorg/rifai-sicilia" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://dune.com/turinglabsorg/rifai-sicilia</a> Your donations will help -Support the growth of the syntropic agroforestry school at Butterfly Hill to restore 3 hectares of degraded land into a thriving food forest through continued education for local farmers. -Seed the bioregional regeneration fund to support local projects in more parts of the island. -Continued online and offline events and education for web3 onboarding in Italian and English. -Improve the rifaisicilia.com website to add more features to serve the community better.Online Events- Bioregional Mapping Session <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKcCon6PPAg" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKcCon6PPAg</a> Participant Testimonials “Rifai Sicilia balanced the real life intersection of agroecological practise and ReFi onboarding and dMRV use into an awesome, wholesome and spirited event.” Hereward McGillivray "We came together and did the thing!

Together, they form a cosmo-local fabric: decentralized, diverse, and yet united by a shared mission of regeneration through Web3.<blockquote>“Local action, global coordination. That’s the power of the ReFi DAO Network.”</blockquote><img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmZxiLQehbp48qRQC4E5mNvQ6zKX7MXW1YbuVFdtst4JKD"><h2>🔗 ReFi DAO Network Initiatives</h2>This Cause also sustains core ReFi DAO Network Initiatives.
