Limited access to financial education, coupled with a lack of understanding of emerging technologies like blockchain, leaves these communities at a disadvantage in today's rapidly evolving digital economy.\n\nAt Proof of Integrity, we are committed to breaking down these barriers through our **#aPRENDOcripto** program, which promotes **financial literacy and blockchain education** among **underprivileged communities in Latin America**. Our four-part workshop series provides hands-on experience with decentralized technologies, practical and theoretical content, and close mentorship to facilitate the learning process.\n\n# Our Impact\nThrough our #aPRENDOcripto program, we have achieved:\n\n- Over 120 graduates equipped with the skills and knowledge to better manage their personal finances and understand the fundamentals of blockchain technology.\n- 9 successful editions of #aPRENDOcripto across seven different venues in underprivileged communities in Buenos Aires city.\n- A growing network of program participants who are inspired to continue learning and exploring the world of blockchain and decentralized technologies.\n\nWe believe that with continued guidance and opportunities for professional development, our graduates will soon be able to participate actively 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- **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- **Introduce Blockchain Technology and the Crypto Ecosystem:** We share real-world use cases of blockchain, such as DeFi, Self-sovereign digital identity, NFTs, and other applications. We also explain the fundamental concepts of blockchain, such as decentralization, transparency, and immutability, to foster a deeper understanding of the technology.\n\n- **Facilitate Hands-on Engagement with Decentralized Technologies:** Our program emphasizes experiential learning by guiding participants through the process of setting up wallets, joining decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), minting NFTs, and using other Web3 applications. This practical approach enables attendees to gain first-hand experience with these emerging technologies and develop the necessary skills to participate in the decentralized ecosystem.\n\nIn addition to #aPRENDOcripto, we also have a program called \"The Way of the Graduate\" that provides continued support for our graduates.\n\n# The Way of the Graduate\n\n\"The Way of the Graduate\" is a continuation plan for the graduates of #aPRENDOcripto. It is designed to support their personal and professional development, and create a community of #aPRENDOcripto graduates who are connected and engaged with the broader crypto community in Argentina and the region. \n\nThe program is managed by a team of coordinators and mentors, and includes three main areas of focus:\n\n### Community\n\n- Building a strong community of #aPRENDOcripto graduates through networking events and collaborative learning opportunities.\n- Creating opportunities for graduates to participate in Proof of Integrity's operations and develop skills as mentors or teachers.\n- Scheduling regular and predictable events to encourage ongoing engagement and establish a routine.\n\n### Professional Development\n\n- Offering complementary courses, videos and technical training to supplement the topics covered in the #aPRENDOcripto program, and sharing relevant news and updates from the crypto ecosystem.\n- Providing mentorship and support in developing essential soft skills, such as resume writing and interview preparation, to enhance employability in the crypto industry.\n- Offering scholarships for technology-related courses and language training (e.g. English) to increase graduates' competitiveness in the job market.\n\n### Career Placement\n\n- Building partnerships with crypto companies and projects to promote job opportunities for #aPRENDOcripto graduates.\n- Sharing curated job listings from the crypto industry that are applicable to the graduates' profiles, and providing mentorship to candidates as needed.\n- Hosting talks and discussions featuring individuals who have successfully entered the crypto job market to share their experiences and advice.\n- Facilitating internships within technology companies, whether paid or unpaid, to provide graduates with valuable on-the-job training.\n\nWe are excited about the potential for \"The Way of the Graduate\" to provide ongoing support and create new opportunities for our program graduates. \n\n# Our future plans\n\nOur future plans include **expanding the reach** of our #aPRENDOcripto program and empowering even more underprivileged communities. In 2023, we plan to conduct **26 editions** of the program, reaching more participants across Buenos Aires City and beyond. We also aim to expand the program to other regions of **Argentina**, as well as neighboring countries such as **Uruguay** and **Chile**, to make blockchain education and financial literacy accessible to a wider audience. Ultimately, we envision #aPRENDOcripto becoming available throughout **Latin America**.\n\nOur goal is to have **400 graduates** successfully complete the program in 2023, equipping them with the skills and knowledge to participate in the decentralized ecosystem and achieve financial stability and independence.\n\n# Join Our Mission\n\nAt Proof of Integrity, we believe that blockchain and personal finance education can empower individuals and communities to achieve financial stability and independence. We invite you to support our mission and help us bring the benefits of blockchain technology to underprivileged communities.", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectTwitter": "proof_integrity"}, "recipient": "0x75DeD588d2a4734D0a61B9953A3C4e6C6D00AbC4"}}
