Hello Asgardians!

The first round of quarterly project proposals for 2017 is beginning. It will run from Feb 1 - Mar 31, 2017.

We have developed a project proposal guide that has been approved by Asgardia Official to help the Asgardian community contribute to the building of our nation. This proposal guide helps Civic.Asgardia, the civil branch of Asgardia, to prepare cogent and concise material for review to obtain an official endorsement. The goal of a project proposal is to:

  1. Identify what needs to happen
  2. Explain why it needs to be done
  3. Persuade the reader that your team has wisely considered a problem and has a realistic plan and resources prepared to perform the required tasks.

In addition to having a consistent, attractive appearance, the information should be easy to access. It should be well-organized. Balance an easily scannable overview with sufficient technical details to demonstrate that your team has thought through the process.
