The proposer outlines unique challenges that are faced by SPO's in Africa. The peer to peer knowledge sharing means that SPOs can support each other through the learning process through sharing of ideas and challenges

Although this proposal would fit into more than one challenge, it does support a group of SPO´s in learning how to avoid possible challenges in their role and provides support and empowers SPO´s to develop their skills. I would recommend that the proposers partner with a platform or group to provide the material that they researched to the general community and that they document possible threats that have been discussed to one of the groups that document in Catalyst in addition to having it on the WADA website.

I don't see the inherent limitations of operating SPOs in Africa as disasters but as recurrent conditions, largely due to local infrastructure. But regardless of whether this situation is commonplace or an eventual disaster, I believe the main idea is to ensure the resilience of the SPOs, so there is a relationship with the challenge.

The proposed solution is within the items established in the challenge brief.

I believe the number of 5 SPOs is a small sample to identify bottlenecks and problems on the African continent. If the idea is to carry out a comprehensive local assessment, I believe that the number of participating SPOs should be greater.

I understand that the stage of data collection and monitoring of SPOs specifically in Africa is desirable to understand local risks and particularities, but the results of this will be public and may benefit SPOs in situations analogous to the African continent, so I think it would be more advantageous to expand participation in the post-monitoring phases to enable a collaborative effort by the entire community. Several places around the world have infrastructure problems similar to those seen in Africa and I believe they could also benefit from this proposal. The tools, data and reports in this proposal could be used by SPOs in similar infrastructure conditions to that observed, both in Africa and on other continents with similar conditions. Limiting the proposal's scope in Africa decreases the proposal's potential impact on the community.

The goals established in the roadmap are relevant to the challenge and the metrics are good impact indicators. I would recommend including KPIs and considering that reports, tests and tools will be produced, these items could be used to estimate KPIs and improve the impact assessment.

The challenge is that stakepools in Africa are subject to outages and infrastructure issues on top of the general risks faced by SPOs. This proposal aims to design a support system specifically for the unique challenges of running a stakepool in Africa and create a learning hub for African SPOs. Given the proposal, it does credibly addresses the challenge.

Since the milestones are very step by step and the partnerships and team already work together successfully, it is going to be easy to audit via their website, the dashboards, the documentation and reports.

The proposer has clear goals and clear outcomes to measure success of the project. This includes the number of SPOs onboarded as well as rick scores.

The problem, solution indicates alignment with the challenge, but I see the proposal more as something related to improving the infrastructure than a disaster solution.

There is a roadmap with objective goals and several metrics relevant to auditability, but no KPIs were included.

Based on the proposal and the 3-month interval milestones implemented. The primary deliverable is that within the first three months that the SPOs have all completed their reporting and contributed significantly to the documentation. This project has sufficient information to audit the progress and ensure success.
