This gap in understanding doesn't just leave them behind; it represents a lost chance for growth, innovation, and empowerment in our ever-advancing digital world.\n\nProof of Integrity is committed to closing this gap through our **#aPRENDOcripto** program, focusing on **blockchain education** for those who need it most. With ambitious plans for **expansion across El Salvador, Per\u00fa, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Uruguay, Honduras, Guatemala, Bolivia, Paraguay, Colombia, Panama, Venezuela, and Rep\u00fablica Dominicana**, our mission is to make blockchain education accessible to a wider and more diverse audience across Latin America. \n\nOur approach is hands-on and personal, with an **in-person** four-part workshop series that not only educates but inspires participants with decentralized technologies. We aim to do more than just teach; we strive to unlock potential and open doors.\n\nBut our vision doesn't end in the classroom, the journey continues with the **#comunidadAPRENDO** initiative. We're building a network of graduates who continue to learn, share, and grow together, ensuring that the spark ignited during our workshops turns into a lifelong pursuit of knowledge and opportunity.\n\nJoin us as we work to make technology accessible and exciting, bridging the digital divide and bringing blockchain education to the heart of Latin America's underprivileged communities.\n\n# Our Impact\nThrough our #aPRENDOcripto program, we have achieved:\n\n- **21 successful editions across various regions**, reaching over 273 individuals who are now better equipped to understand the fundamentals of blockchain technology.\n- **16 editions across the Argentinian states** of  Buenos Aires, Chubut, Santiago del Estero, Tucum\u00e1n, and, with a total of 190 graduates.\n- **International reach**, executing editions in Maldonado and Montevideo, *Uruguay*, with 41 graduates, and a significant edition in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, with 22 graduates.\n\nWe believe that our graduates will actively participate in the decentralized ecosystem and contribute to the growth of the crypto community.\n\n# #aPRENDOcripto Goals\n\nOur program aims to achieve the following goals:\n\n- **Introduce Blockchain Technology and the Crypto Ecosystem:** We share real-world use cases of blockchain, like DeFi, Self-sovereign digital identity, NFTs, and more. We also explain fundamental concepts like decentralization, transparency, and immutability.\n\n- **Facilitate Hands-on Engagement with Decentralized Technologies:** Our program emphasizes practical learning, guiding participants through wallet setup, DAOs, token transfers, and using other Web3 applications. This hands-on approach helps attendees gain direct experience with these emerging technologies.\n\n- **Equip Participants with Personal Finance Tools:** We provide attendees with the necessary tools to manage their income effectively, such as budgeting, saving, and debt management. We also emphasize the importance of financial literacy and responsible money management to promote long-term financial stability.\n\n\n# Post-Graduate community: #comunidadAPRENDO\n\nAt the heart of Proof of Integrity's vision is #comunidadAPRENDO, an initiative that crystallizes our mission to foster empowerment and social inclusion. This initiative supports our graduates from the #aPRENDOcripto program, mapping their journey beyond education, and facilitating their smooth transition and active participation within the blockchain ecosystem.\n\n## Three Foundational Pillars:\n\n1. **Community**:\n   - Engaging network of graduates with gamification, rewards, and recognition.\n   - Weekly virtual sessions for connection and collaboration.\n   - a web3 platform integrating gamification and POAPs for active participation (under development).\n\n2. **Training**:\n   -  Mainly represented by our Learn2Earn program #criptoIMPULSO.\n   - Ongoing professional lectures in blockchain technology, digital literacy, and socio-emotional skills.\n   - Offering free courses, financial incentives, and mentor support, utilizing Optimism as a Layer 2 solution.\n\n3. **Employability**:\n   - Dedicated to augmenting opportunities in the tech and blockchain sector.\n   - Steadfastly strengthening this pillar to improve job prospects for members.\n\n# Our Future Plans\n\nProof of Integrity's vision for the future is both ambitious and focused. Our plans include:\n\n- **Expanding aPRENDOcripto Across Latin America**: Leveraging our existing partnerships with Ethereum communities in 12 Latin American countries, we aim to spread the #aPRENDOcripto program to El Salvador, Per\u00fa, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Uruguay, Honduras, Guatemala, Bolivia, Paraguay, Colombia, Panama, Venezuela, and Rep\u00fablica Dominicana. This expansion will significantly broaden our reach, making blockchain education accessible to a wide and diverse audience.\n\n- **Developing the #comunidadAPRENDO Platform**: Our future includes the creation and enhancement of the #comunidadAPRENDO platform, designed to foster interaction, collaboration, and continuous learning within our growing community of graduates and blockchain enthusiasts.\n\n- **Aiming to Conduct 26 Editions in 2023**: Targeting more areas in Buenos Aires and beyond,  while also planning to complete 26 editions of the #aPRENDOcripto program in the this year.\n\n- **400 Graduates Target for 2023**: We are committed to having 400 graduates complete the program in 2023, further equipping them with the skills to actively participate in the decentralized ecosystem.\n\nOur goal is to create lasting social impact by bridging the technological gap and empowering underprivileged communities through education and mentorship. Join us in our mission to transform lives and build a more inclusive and sustainable blockchain community across Latin America.\n\n# Join Our Mission\n\nAt Proof of Integrity, we believe that blockchain education can empower individuals and communities. We invite you to support our mission and help us bring the benefits of blockchain technology to underprivileged communities.\n", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "proof_integrity"}
