Green projects will gain adequate financing, especially with the increasing awareness of the importance of the Paris Agreement, so you will find liquidity easily.
Health projects, artificial intelligence, and community service will come finally.
I think the OP is asking for names/links/etc of specific projects in each category.
Given the proliferation of scams here I doubt there is anything legitimate that hasn't been already funded up the wazoo but I wouldn't mind to be proved wrong on this.
That's right so my interest is measuring and therefore identifying legitimate projects. I'm looking at this from the perspective of traditional markets, how to filter out the noise and provide a list of projects that wouldn't look out of place on an ESG list.
There's an interesting shift happening on traditional markets where companies as well as being listed by their financial scores are listed by their ESG scores. Funds are increasingly looking at both rankings and choosing investments not only based on financial performance but also on their ESG performance. Why? Well for many reasons including an increasing trend for investors placing money into funds seeking out funds with a social conscience and so its in the interest of large funds to show the ESG rankings of their investments. Also, family offices are also developing a social conscience and seeking out "good" projects.
Bu there's a risk that the crypto space falling far behind the social good of traditional markets which is madness when the heart of Bitcoin originally was to build a better system. When you have banks and equity funds protecting small investors and doing social good while the crypto and defi space just rips people off for quick returns its undermines the good that many hoped for.
So I came into this to look at how we can look beyond lambo's and the Moon and get rich quick schemes that get granny to invest her savings in the latest scam ICO.
If we were to build an ESG index or a set of ESG indexes that ranked quality projects not only by the percentage return but by ESG metrics then what metrics would we use and what projects today would be good contenders?

I'm not sure it's true that green projects will always get funding, there's plenty of green startups fighting over startup grants, incubator spaces and seed funding.

I think you're right, health and financial security are very important for everyone. There are subgroups such as disabled people with additional challenges but your two identified areas would apply to everyone.
