**Summary:**

 On February 6th, 2023, two earthquakes hit Pazarcik and Elbistan in Kahramanmaras, Turkey, leading to over 50,000 deaths and leaving 1.5 million people homeless. This was the deadliest earthquake worldwide since the 2010 Haiti earthquake.

It is also proving to be one of the first major examples of blockchains and their tokens being used to directly offer humanitarian assistance. So far over $12.5 million in donations have been made from blockchain protocols, treasuries, exchanges and donors.

Please note that given the amount of the requested allocation, this is submitted as an external motion: if/after approved by the Council, this proposal will be voted in referenda queue by the community for the final decision. 

External motion proposal hash: `0x60d0920c817310650378d7227c3bd7de10135479822262b088c2db361dbceac1` (preimage is submitted).

Send a batch of dispatch calls.

May be called from any origin.

- `calls`: The calls to be dispatched from the same origin. The number of call must not
  exceed the constant: `batched_calls_limit` (available in constant metadata).

If origin is root then call are dispatch without checking origin filter. (This includes
bypassing `frame_system::Config::BaseCallFilter`).

# <weight>
- Complexity: O(C) where C is the number of calls to be batched.
# </weight>

This will return `Ok` in all circumstances. To determine the success of the batch, an
event is deposited. If a call failed and the batch was interrupted, then the
`BatchInterrupted` event is deposited, along with the number of successful calls made
and the error of the failed call. If all were successful, then the `BatchCompleted`
event is deposited.

- Problem Statement: The earthquakes in Pazarcik and Elbistan in Turkey have caused significant damage and left many people homeless, requiring long-term recovery efforts.
- Significance: This proposal allows the Polkadot community to contribute to the recovery efforts in a transparent and tangible way, leveraging blockchain technology.
- Proposed Solution: Requesting a DOT allocation of $1,081,000.00 to support the long-term recovery project.
- Expected Outcomes: Transparent and accountable use of funds to assist in the recovery efforts, providing direct humanitarian assistance through blockchain technology.
