[SOLUTION] Please describe your proposed solution.

The goal of our solution is: To create a Cardano newsletter YouTube channel to convey the latest, most accurate, and most attractive information about the Cardano ecosystem to the Vietnamese community.

Based on surveys of previous projects for the Vietnamese community, I believe that: Previous projects providing information to the Cardano community were only aimed at those who already know and participate in the ecosystem. , has not been able to attract new people. The Cardano newsletter YouTube channel will exploit the power of multimedia, creating something new, and topical and attracting viewers' attention.

Methodology: The videos will be produced in a journalistic style, highlighting facts, data, and analysis and highlighting the outstanding advantages of Cardano, providing a good experience and advantages when participating. Join the Cardano ecosystem. The videos will be short, concise, easy to understand and viewer-friendly. Videos will be posted regularly, synchronized with Cardano's official information channels.

Benefits for Cardano: The Cardano newsletter YouTube channel will help the Vietnamese community get a reliable, updated, and useful source of information about Cardano. The Cardano newsletter YouTube channel attracts new people and contributes to raising awareness, excitement, and participation of the Vietnamese community in the Cardano ecosystem. The Cardano newsletter YouTube channel will create a space for exchange, sharing, and mutual support among community members.

Finally, with this Solution, we will promote Cardano more widely to potential users in the Vietnamese community. In addition, the Vietnamese Cardano Community is growing with thousands of people, so creating an information channel on the YouTube platform will attract more Developers to participate in the Cardano ecosystem.

[IMPACT] Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community.

The Cardano Vietnam community is growing, but there are not many quality and easy-to-understand resources. Vietnam needs to develop more reputable and updated information communication channels about Cardano to support the community in learning and absorbing knowledge. Newbies who don't know Cardano yet, need to get the right information to grasp information about Cardano. Although there have been many suggestions from the Vietnamese community to Vietnameseize these documents, they are only in simple translation form, not really attractive, and not explained clearly for beginners. Therefore, technical information and news about the Cardano ecosystem need to be presented in a more understandable way.

To solve this problem, we will create videos that will be produced in a journalistic style, highlighting facts, data, and analysis related to Cardano. The videos will be read in Vietnamese. The video will be about 3 minutes long with powerful illustrations that convey the content. Videos will be posted regularly, synchronized with Cardano's official information channels. The videos will be summarized from the following information sources: Charles Horskinson's youTube channel, Cardano Foundation, Input Output, https://cexplorer.io/, https://cardanofoundation.org/en/

We want to introduce Cardano to more people, so they can join an innovative, diverse, and collaborative community. To do this, we will share short and engaging videos on popular social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, etc. These videos will help you better understand Cardano, its outstanding features, ongoing projects, and cooperation opportunities with new actors.

The impact of the YouTube Channel "Cardano newsletter" will help the Vietnamese community have a reliable, updated, and useful source of information about Cardano. The Cardano newsletter YouTube channel will contribute to raising awareness, excitement, and participation of the Vietnamese community in the Cardano ecosystem. The Cardano newsletter YouTube channel will create a space for exchange, sharing, and mutual support among community members. We will measure the impact of the Cardano newsletter YouTube channel by tracking metrics such as the number of views, number of subscriptions, number of comments, number of shares, number of likes and dislikes, number of visits Access to recommended information sources. We will share the outputs and opportunities from our project by posting statistical reports on the Cardano newsletter YouTube channel, on official Cardano information channels, and on forums and social networks of Cardano-related associations. We will also send statistical reports to project sponsors and collaborators.
