Excellent reflection. I fully agree that one of the biggest challenges in humanitarian response is the lack of real, verifiable transparency. Information is often fragmented, processes are slow, and donors rarely have clear visibility into the true impact of their contributions.
This is where Web3 offers a structural shift: automated traceability, community-driven governance, and real-time public auditing. It’s not just technological innovation — it’s a new way to build trust and decentralize humanitarian support.
From our experience, today’s main barrier is the gap between intention and verification: organizations want to be transparent, but they lack accessible tools to clearly demonstrate every action taken on the ground. Web3 — combined with AI and MRV — can finally close that gap.
That’s why we celebrate initiatives like Petition.io, and at the same time we are building a complementary project: Peru’s first Web3 + AI + MRV transparency platform for reforestation, developed by our NGO. We are looking for collaboration from the Web3 community to continue developing open standards for environmental and social transparency.
If anyone would like to learn more or get involved, here is our proposal on Gitcoin Governance:
[Seeking Support] Peru’s First Web3 + AI + MRV Reforestation Transparency Platform — REFOREST TREES (NGO) Requesting Funding, Collaboration & Support
We’d be glad to connect with other projects that believe, like we do, that transparency is not a luxury — it’s the foundation for transforming humanitarian and climate impact.
