The developer community in East Africa still needs to be built, incentivized and motivated to build on Cardano.
There is need to build a the developer ecosystem that helps them to have a sense of community and a place they can share ideas
This is the total amount allocated to More Developers on Cardano.
Adding more developers on Cardano will held in creation of more scripts for automation, the building of frameworks dashboards DeFi tokenization
The increased number of developers from this region will:
A. Attract developers from outside the community to participate in Catalyst
B. Motivate developers to keep building and to have staying power
C. Create a sense of community and conversations pertinent to their issues
Developers are in high demand and can be difficult to keep interesting in new projects. WE need to be able to have enough incentive to attract them
