Cardano spanish training programs

The problem
The spanish community is the 2nd biggest on Cardano, and the 4th most spoken language in the world, but there are almost 0 resources for people who want to learn about Cardano and start developing and growing their local communities.
Also, it's difficult to find like-minded people who want to work in projects together
The solution
We want to create a space where we can educate and motivate the Hispanic community members, and incentivize them grow their community, and to solve their local problems using the tools Cardano will provide to them. To achieve this goal, we'd like to mention 4 important features of the proposal:
1) An introductory training program for Cardano coordinators, who are new members interested in learn more about Cardano and blockchain, and also learn how to grow their local community and the whole ecosystem, according to their specific interests. (PS: the program should be created in collaboration with multiple blockchain educators and NPOs interested, and the structure of the program should be discussed further in depth, but we imagine we can make 2 separate areas, one more introductory and equal for all participants, and the second should be divided depending on the participant's specific interests.)
2) Academia Cardano: a place where community can vote and submit their own courses and get rewarded for them, and also use the website as a space to create chat groups for specific regions or subjects, to chat and discuss ideas or projects they could have, incentivizing community engagement and also building strong relationships among ambassadors, entrepreneurs, developers, etc.
3) Create a formal form to report Cardano events in a well-structured way, to keep up and follow the progress of the different hispanic local communities.
4) Create a coordinators leaderboard, to incentivize community participation and reward the most efficient members in growing their communities, with things like future trips to official events, more resources for the specific community, reputation, etc.
Details of the programs:
Part 1 (introduction and general part of the training program for all participants).

2.6) Translators
Development phases:
Phase 1: Training program development and structure.
- Website development, for hosting the courses and space chats groups.
- Development of training program part 1.
- Collaborations with blockchain educators and content creators, who will review part 1 and also start creating part 2.
- Set up official form to report events from local coordinators.
- Define coordinators hierarchy (first year junior, if participate successfully, then senior nomination option, and then chief departments to coordinate specific areas, like countries, regions or provinces).
Phase 2: Finalizing and launching the program.
- Develop and finalize training program part 2. This part will include experts in each specific area who will be incentivized by the reward programs.
- Define official members who will help, organize and manage local community centers and activities (first hierarchy structure with pioneer participants of the organization in each country of the hispanic community).
- Marketing strategy to launch and attract interested participants to join the coordinators training program.
Phase 3: Assessing progress
- Organizing firsts meetups with participants who successfully completed the training program.
- RRE (Roles-responsibilities-Expectations) reviews of the coordinators, to assess progress and give guidance.
- Local events start going on, and official forms get submitted to the organization. With this information, give updates every 4 months of the communities developments and growths.
Phase 4: Incentives
- Reward the more effective coordinators from the top leadeboard.
- Continue with local meetups or webinars for helping people to propose their ideas on Catalyst.
- Rewards for content creators on Cardano Academy.
The team:
I'm in the crypto space since late 2018, and I'm creating educational content resources in social media about blockchain and Cardano specifically (https://www.instagram.com/cardanoargentina/). I want to take this to the next level by creating a one-stop website for spanish speakers to learn, engage and create solutions together.
My team consist of developers who can deploy the website, and if the project get funded I'll create the part 1 program alongside with blockchain experts and stakepools operators from the hispanic community.
Metrics for success:
- Numbers of applicants to the training program in 1 year since the program is released.
- Numbers of members who finalize the training programs.
- Number of space chats groups created in the platform, and number of projects created in those chat groups.
- Number of local meetups and events created by the Cardano coordinators.
- Percentage of goals accomplished in the Cardano coordinator's RREs.
- New Hispanic members joining and proposing on Catalyst / ALDEA.
- New developers learning Plutus and Marlowe.
Budget:
- Website design: 1500 USD.
- Website hosting for 2 years (teachable): 2400 USD.
- Official members incentives (for organizational jobs managing local communities in hispanic countries): 2000 USD.
