In the wake of the historic protests against the killing of young Iranian women, Teia has set up a charity fundraiser in solidarity with the protests and to raise awareness for womens rights in Iran.

The Donation address

KT1KYfj97fpdomqyKsZSBdSVvh9afh93b4Ge view on tzkt.io Is the donation address for this event. (PLEASE don't sent NFTs to this address!)

This contract is the same type of contract that is also used for the SavePakistan Fundraiser: The Admin can only add/remove donation addresses if needed between which funds in the contract get split up once the "withdraw" function is called. anyone can call this withdraw function

Currently, there is only one donation address to wich the above mentioned donation address withdraws to (tz2XPwV4gWN5oereTidtqMvn9KDZtyph41WC). All funds sent to this address will be ramped off to Organisations that focus on supporting the iranian fight for freedom and documenting human rights issues in Iran.

The address is handled by Omar of Crypto for Charity

How to contribute

To join the Event, mint a fundraiser piece with either a split contract on Teia.art or any other Tezos Marketplace or use objktcoms "advanced listing" to set up a split swap of an already minted NFT to direct the sales directly and verifiably towards the donation Address (KT1KYfj97fpdomqyKsZSBdSVvh9afh93b4Ge).

you need to at least set a 50% split or more towards the donation address.

The Hashtag for this event is #Tezos4Iran Use this Hastag when tweeting out pieces, or other tweets around the event and in the tags when minting fundraiser pieces (preferably without the '#')

To tie the pieces together, we suggest to use the colours of the Iranian flag (green: #239f40, white: #FFFFFF, red: #da0000) but of course this is optional.

Please note that, as always, Teia will be enforcing the Code of Conduct and Terms & Conditions on any artworks minted on Teia. This explicitly includes any forms of harassment or discrimination of groups based on faith, gender, race, ethicity.

Where to find Fundraiser pieces to collect

Similar to the #SavePakistan Fundraiser we set up 2 places for showing #Tezos4Iran pieces:

  • The "Iran" feed on Teia - A feed of pieces minted with at least 50% of revenues going towards the donation address
  • tezos4Iran.teia.rocks - a event page powered by teztok that lists all pieces minted with the Hashtag #Tezos4Iran on all tezos marketplaces. Note that this page does not check for split % of the pieces.

Fund Distribution

Attention: Unfortunately the initially picked Organisazion "United 4 Iran" is no longer elligible to receive donations via our offramping partners of Crypto For Charity. Therefore, we had to change the Orgs that the raised Funds will be distributed to. You can read the details of this change on our Blog Annoncement

Currently the following orgs will be donated to in a 50/50 split:

  • Abdorrahman Boroumand Center for Human Rights in Iran (ABC): This organisation has been suggested to us by United 4 Iran. It has a long history in advocating for civil rights for Iranian people as well as documenting human rights violations by the Iranian regime and supporting protests. They maintain the Omid Memorial which documents info on over 25,000 prisoners and maintain databases of executions, assassinations and floggings.

  • Center For Human rights in Iran: (CHRI) is an independent, nonpartisan, nonprofit organisation working to protect and promote human rights in Iran. Headquartered in New York, CHRI is comprised of award-winning journalists, researchers, lawyers, activists, writers, multimedia specialists and advocates based around the world who work to support the basic rights and freedoms of the Iranian people.

going forward, more orgs and causes could be added to the fund/split. If you have ideas, questions or suggestions, or want to give your feedback, feel free to join the conversation there in the Thread “Solidarity with Iranian Artists” under the channel “Event-Planning”. You can also read up on all the previous convos that lead to this point. This is just the second fundraiser event Teias charity has set up thus far and having more people on the Team would help immensely to further improve our charity efforts and strategies.

Why a fundraiser?

We want to acknowledge the human rights crisis in Iran and try to do what we can to highlight the situation. However, due to sanctions in place against Iran it is exeptionally hard set up official, impactful fundraisers and finding legal ways for a marketplace to support the protests, especially as an aspiring non profit organistaion like Teia. Therefore the community is needed to amplify creative initiatives, set up decentralised efforts for highlighting these human rights issues.

After getting feedback from Iranian Artists on how to set up this event and given the risks these artists face, especially at the moment, the planning comittee decided against publishing any public lists of Iranian Artists and we want to ask the community to be aware of the risks of discosing Iranian identities online.

It also got clear that this event will be more about raising awareness than raising donations. The Team put a lot of time into to brainstorming ideas and see what we can do to help, what options we as Teia have to make any kind of impact. A "minting event" looked like one of the most promising options for an official event, because it can be set up in a timely manner and can help highlighting the issue and hopefully kick-start more decentralised, grass roots initiatives with more direct impact from the community as well as having impact on the ground.

And with an minting event for highlighting human rights issues, it would be strange to not at least suggest a donation address to donate to; the non-Iranian artists minting fundraiser pieces should be incentivised to create these pieces for a good cause and not for personal gain.

The Team has looked into a list of possible organisations under the following criteria: The orgs should be legal for a RMI non-profit LLC (the legal setup we plan to register Teia as soon) to work with, it should not work with extremist groups, they need to be willing to take crypto/Tezos donations and should actually have some kind of impact for Iranian protestors. We also consulted SimonSays who has a long history of charity work for Greenpeace and has good connections with various NGOs and was able to help us getting in touch with organisations as well as setting up crypto donation wallets for them.

We will provide more info on and keep the community posted as much as possible about their work.

Also: Since we are using a donation split smartcontract as donation address. This means we can add/remove addresses and organisations to the setup between which the donations will be split. This means feedback and suggestions for more ORGs to benefit from the fundraisers are very much appreciated.

2022年9月13日,一名年輕的伊朗女子瑪莎·阿米尼(Mahsa Amini)因爲沒有用頭巾遮蓋住頭髮,而被伊朗宗教警察逮捕——按照該國在1979年伊斯蘭革命之後頒行的律令,女性應當用頭巾遮住頭髮,胳膊和腿部也應當遮擋在寬鬆的衣服下。三天後,阿米尼的死訊傳出,一石捲起千層浪。國際不同地區和組織開始聲援伊朗。 Teia亦因此成立了一個慈善籌款活動,以聲援伊朗的抗議活動並希望能提高對伊朗婦女權利的關注。

Tezos捐贈地址

KT1KYfj97fpdomqyKsZSBdSVvh9afh93b4Ge 在tzkt.io上查看 是此活動的捐贈地址。(請不要將NFT發送到此地址!)

該合同與SavePakistan籌款活動使用的智能合約類型相同︰管理員只能添加/刪除捐贈地址(如果有此需要)。一旦調用“從合約提款”功能,智能合約中的資金就會按捐贈地址自動拆分。而任何人都可以調用此提款功能

Untitled 1

當前, Crypto for Charity 的SimonSays  提取上述捐贈地址 ( tz2XPwV4gWN5oereTidtqMvn9KDZtyph41WC )。發送到該地址的所有資金將流向那些致力於支持伊朗爭取自由並記錄伊朗人權問題的組織。

如何貢獻

要加入Tezos4Iran活動,請用 Teia.art的拆分式智能合約 或任何其他Tezos市場或使用 objkt.com 的 "高級列表” 用於設置已鑄造的NFT的售賣款項拆分 將銷售直接和可驗證地定向到上述捐贈地址 (KT1KYfj97fpdomqyKsZSBdSVvh9afh93b4Ge )。

您需要至少將50%的售賣NFT後的款項分配給捐贈地址。

此活動的標籤是 #Tezos4Iran 在Twitter發文時使用此Hastag 以及在Tezos鑄造NFT時標記(Tag) Tezos4Iran

Untitled 3

為了將大家的創作連繫起來,我們建議使用 伊朗國旗 (綠色:#239f40,白色:#FFFFFF,紅色:#da0000 ),但這當然不是強制的要求。

請注意,Teia將一如既往地執行 行為準則 以及在Teia上鑄造的任何藝術品的條款和條件。這明確包括基於信仰,性別,種族,道德的團體的任何形式的騷擾或歧視。

在哪裡找到這次募捐的NFT作品?

與#SavePakistan籌款活動類似,我們設置了2個位置來顯示#Tezos4Iran作品:

Untitled 4

The "Iran" feed on Teia  - 鑄造時須要將至少50%的收入設定分拆至籌款地址

Untitled 5

tezos4Iran.teia.rocks -由teztok驅動的活動頁面,列出了所有tezos市場上用Hashtag#Tezos4Iran鑄造的所有作品。請注意,此頁面並不能檢查NFT在售賣時分拆至籌款戶口的百分比。

資金分配

注意: 不幸的是,最初選擇的組織 “United 4 Iran”不再能夠通過我們的合作夥伴Crypto for Charity獲得捐款。因此,我們不得不更改將籌集的資金分配的目標組織。您可以在我們的網站上閱讀此更改的詳細信息 博客Annoncement

目前,以下組織將以50/50的比例獲得Teia4Iran的籌款捐贈:

Untitled 6

Abdorrahman Boroumand Center  ( ABC ):該組織由 United 4 Iran 推薦給Teia。它在倡導伊朗人民的公民權利以及記錄伊朗政權侵犯人權和支持抗議活動方面有著悠久的歷史。他們維護著Omid紀念館,該紀念館記錄了25,000多名囚犯的信息,並維護了處決,暗殺和鞭打的數據庫。

Untitled 7

伊朗人權中心: ( CHRI )是一個獨立的,無黨派的非營利組織,致力於保護和促進伊朗的人權。CHRI總部位於紐約,由屢獲殊榮的記者,研究人員,律師,活動家,作家, 遍布全球的多媒體專家和倡導者致力於支持伊朗人民的基本權利和自由。

展望未來,籌款活動能會增加更多的組織和原因。如果您有任何想法,問題或建議,或者想提供反饋,請隨時加入Teia Discord中 Event Planning頻道的對話串 “與伊朗藝術家的團結” 。您還可以閱讀所有先前的討論和會議紀錄。這只是Teia慈善機構迄今已建立的第二次籌款活動,擁有更多團隊成員將極大地幫助進一步改善我們的慈善工作和戰略。

交易報告:

為什麼要籌款?

我們要承認伊朗存在著人權危機,並盡力令局勢得到關注。但是,由於伊朗被實施了制裁,因此特別難以建立正式的,有影響力的籌款,並為市場尋找支持抗議活動的合法途徑, 特別是像Teia這樣有抱負的非營利組織。因此,一些創造性的提議需要靠一個社群去擴大其影響力, 以去中心化形式的努力去突出這些人權問題。

在收到伊朗藝術家關於如何舉辦此活動的反饋並給予這些藝術家面臨的風險之後,尤其是在目前, 活動委員會決定不發佈任何伊朗藝術家的公開名單,我們希望社區能意識到在網絡上曝露伊朗身份的風險。

很明顯,這次活動將更多是關於提高伊朗人權問題的關注而不是捐款的增加反而是其次。團隊花了很多時間來集思廣益,看看我們能做些什麼,作為Teia, 我們的選擇能產生怎樣的影響。“NFT鑄造活動”看起來像是官方活動中最有潛力的選擇之一, 因為它可以及時展開,可以幫助突出人權問題並希望啟動更加去中心化的工作, 由基層倡議, 對社區有更直接的影響,並能在地產生影響。

而且,以突出顯示人權問題為主題的NFT鑄造活動,若不建議一個NFT發售時能分拆的捐贈地址是很奇怪的事; 非伊朗的藝術家應該以關注伊朗人權作為推動力參與這次的活動,而不是著眼於個人利益或售賣相關NFT後的個人所得利益才去參與這次的活動。

我們根據以下標準去衡量哪些組織或機構符合捐助:

  1. 機構或組織應該是合法的RMI非營利性LLC (Teia亦會計劃盡快完成法律設置)
  2. 組織或機構應該是合法的, 亦不應該是極端主義團體
  3. 組織或機構需要願意接受加密貨幣/ Tezos的捐贈,並且能對伊朗的示威者能產生某種實際影響。我們也諮詢過SimonSays; 他曾在綠色和平組織(Greenpeace) 從事慈善工作已有悠久的歷史,並與各種非政府組織有著良好的聯繫,能夠幫助我們與組織取得聯繫、為他們準備錢包及進行加密貨幣的捐贈。

我們將提供有關其工作的更多信息,並盡可能地向社區發佈有關其工作的信息。

另外:由於我們使用捐贈拆分智能合約作為捐贈地址。這意味著我們可以在將捐贈分開的設置中添加/刪除地址和組織。這意味著你的反饋和建議能使更多的組織和機構幫助到伊朗。
