How Kwanda works
-
Join the village
£5 a month is the minimum. Your contribution goes into one pool with everyone else's, and that pool is what we use to collectively fund projects.
Start contributing -
Vote on what we fund
Every proposal comes to the village before any money moves: what it costs, who is building it, what it should produce. You read it, and you vote.

Watch it get built
Every transaction sits on the open ledger, and every project reports as it goes. You can check any of it, any day, without asking us.
