2025 Q2 Highlights: WakeUp Labs x Optimism
TL;DR:
We’ve wrapped up two core missions, updated major tools, launched new initiatives, and kept collaborating with the community.
Mission Completed: Impact Evaluation Framework
We’re proud to announce the successful delivery of the “Making Impact Evaluation Accessible” Mission. This mission centered on updating the existing Impact Evaluation Framework, making it easier for Badgeholders and applicants to evaluate, track, and understand retroactive public goods funding (RetroPGF).
