The project name:
#aPRENDOcripto (a Proof of Integrity educational program)
Project description:
#aPRENDOcripto is an educational program of the Proof of Integrity organization, a crypto and personal finance training program designed to bring the benefits of blockchain technology to vulnerable sectors.
Our program consists of 4 workshops with theoretical and practical content, where participants learn about personal finances, blockchain technology, and possible use cases including how Optimism works. We also facilitate access to decentralized technologies, by guiding participants through the creation of a Metamask wallet and a profile in Proof of Humanity, a social identity verification system for humans on Ethereum. By participating in our program, individuals receive a first-hand experience of the world of cryptocurrencies by receiving the UBI token and becoming part of a DAO.
Our team is made up of professionals who share a passion for blockchain technology and a socially conscious outlook. We have already deployed 8 editions of #aPRENDOcripto in low-income neighborhoods of Buenos Aires, Argentina and have 110 graduates. Our plan is to deploy 26 more training programs in 2023, not only in Buenos Aires but also in the rest of Argentina and Uruguay.
Our program has received recognition and support from the Ethereum Foundation through a grant and was selected as the most important public goods project of Latin America in last year’s Devcon Quadratic Funding. Aya Miyaguchi, Executive Director of the Ethereum Foundation, even attended one of our workshops.
We are confident that #aPRENDOcripto aligns with the goals of RetroPGF 2, and we would be honored to receive funding support to continue our mission of spreading awareness and knowledge of blockchain technology and the Ethereum scalability.
