Financing projects are always to eradicate poverty because money is greatly inflated and the poor do not have sufficient financial tools to cope with the effects of this inflation. Therefore, if it is possible to make a decentralized currency with little volatility with sufficient liquidity, it will be suitable for them or at least pegged.
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.

To me I would health and poverty relief project, the most important thing in life is being healthy before you can consider accumulating of wealth,  alleviating poverty is also important because we have too many poor people around the world, I don't know but maybe there will be support for this type of project.

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.

@Mulann2
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.

I’m compiling a funding list for fund managers with an interest in ESG crypto/blockchain projects and I’m interested to learn of the projects/coins you feel deserve the most support and access to funding in the following categories.

Health projects
Green projects
Poverty relief projects
Child welfare projects
Disability projects
Gender equality projects
Shariah compliant projects
Animal welfare projects
Privacy rights projects
Community support projects
AI projects
Cybersecurity projects

Which projects do you feel are the best in any of these categories?
