Kula Redirects $50M to Emerging Markets Through On-Chain Governance Framework
Kula has allocated $50 million in on-chain impact capital to emerging markets, aiming to empower local communities in governance and asset management. The organization issues governance tokens linked to specific projects, including a limestone concession in Zambia, a hydropower initiative in Nepal, and electric mobility infrastructure in East Africa.
Kula operates under a Regional Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) Framework, ensuring transparent governance while maintaining compliance across jurisdictions. To date, Kula has raised $25 million from partners supporting its governance-focused mission.
The organization seeks to redirect capital from high-income countries, where over 70% of impact investing assets are concentrated, to fast-growing economies. Kula's DAO allows local stakeholders to vote on capital allocation and management, shifting power from centralized institutions to communities. With RWA tokenization projected to exceed $2 trillion by 2028, Kula aims to embed accountability in on-chain assets.
