+Cardano Developers in LATAM

Latin America is ripe for change and innovation, it is a region with plenty of STEM talent & a great potential to impact on Cardano.

Successful integration of the LATAM vibrant tech community into Cardano's related technologies (such as Plutus, DIDs, SPOs, etc.)

• Increased participation of LATAM technical people in the Cardano ecosystems

• Increased number of participants in the LATAM SPO Communities

• Number of Plutus developers from LATAM

• Number of Latin people on the Atala Prism Pioneer program

• Number of Latin people on the Plutus Pioneer program

• Number of LATAM based projects on Cardano´s ecosystem

Cardano is in urgent need of Technical talents, and even more in Plutus development. These talents are key to aid in network decentralization at an international level. LatinAmerican people's motivation to work in the tech industry is continuously increasing, and due to the many systemic issues in the region, the drive for change, innovation and the interest in the crypto space is also thriving; people are always looking for opportunities to make positive changes. With a population of 663.8 Million People, LATAM is an incubator of several hundred thousand Developers, and more to come in the following years.

This challenge will give people from LATAM the opportunity to directly interact with Cardano’s technology and grow new and existing technical communities in diverse languages and backgrounds. This will also bring even more developers to Cardano, and through Project Catalyst, also give developers in LATAM a common space to connect, co-propose and merge proposals.

Challenge amounts should only be proposed in increments of $25K. Other amounts not in these increments will be rounded up. E.g. $27,500 will be rounded up to $50,000.
