Hi Hans, thanks for your reply. It is possible to have more information
about the decision? It is because the proposal is not clear? or something
that could be useful for use to try again?
Thanks in advance.
Best,
Cristobal

Hi @cristpereirag; that's a fair question. Your proposal was clear and concise, so no issues there. Our team's focus for the short term is funding more demand-driven applications (that contribute more activity to the Livepeer Network) vs educational initiatives, like your project. While there is tremendous value in educating new audiences about Livepeer, we're simply prioritizing other goals for now. I hope you understand. |

How is Livepeer used for this project?
Our educational program 'Learn and Create on LivePeer' will be based on the necessary technologies for programmers to use LivePeer for application development. With a 12-hour theoretical content and 12 hours of hands-on practice, students will gain a solid understanding of LivePeer. Additionally, as our program will be conducted virtually, we will leverage the LivePeer protocol to stream the content, demonstrating its real-time content distribution capabilities.
How will you improve your project with this grant? What steps will you take to meet this objective?
This educational program presents a unique opportunity to elevate and expand our blockchain education initiatives, with a special focus on LivePeer, in Latin America. Our primary objective is to create a comprehensive LivePeer program that equips students with the essential knowledge and practical skills required for application development using LivePeer's technology.
To achieve this, we plan to take the following steps with the grant:
Curriculum Development: We will allocate a significant portion of the grant to develop an extensive introductory and advanced LivePeer curriculum, ensuring that it covers all necessary topics comprehensively.
Increased Accessibility: A portion of the grant will be invested in making the program more accessible by offering open and recorded content on our platform, thus reaching a wider audience across Latin America.
Practical Application Focus: We will prioritize hands-on experience by structuring our program around practical LivePeer application development, allowing students to build real-world use cases.
Community Building: Part of the grant will go towards fostering a vibrant community of blockchain enthusiasts and professionals through educational initiatives, networking events, and support for collaborative projects.
With this grant, we can successfully launch and sustain this educational program, enabling both programmers and users to grasp LivePeer's protocol intricacies while mastering application development. Our steps will ensure that the program's objectives are met effectively, furthering blockchain adoption and entrepreneurship in the region.

What is the project’s expected deliverable at the conclusion of the grant time period?
At the conclusion of the grant time period, our project will deliver a robust set of resources and initiatives designed to empower individuals in Latin America with the knowledge, skills, and support needed to thrive in the LivePeer blockchain ecosystem. Our commitment to accessibility and community-building underscores our dedication to fostering blockchain entrepreneurship within the LivePeer framework in the region. These expected deliverables include:
Educational Content: We will provide a comprehensive library of educational materials in Spanish, featuring video tutorials, supplementary materials, guides, and documentation. This content will be accessible to all interested individuals and will cover LivePeer and related blockchain topics extensively. Specifically, we will offer a minimum of 12 hours of free educational content in Spanish on using and developing applications on LivePeer for at least one year.
Dedicated Website: We will launch a dedicated website that serves as a centralized platform to promote and facilitate access to our educational offerings and community engagement initiatives. This website will house our entire content library for a minimum of one year, providing information, course registration, and a platform for community interaction.
Community Events: To foster a thriving blockchain community in Latin America, we will organize and participate in a minimum of two events in the countries with the highest student registrations within the region. These events will include workshops, webinars, and networking opportunities for knowledge sharing and collaboration.
These deliverables will leave a lasting impact on the blockchain education landscape in Latin America, enabling individuals to become proficient in LivePeer and actively participate in the blockchain ecosystem.
What is the one thing (the core mechanic) you want someone to do when using your deliverable?
The core mechanic we aim for participants to achieve, at the conclusion of each course, is the ability to:
Configure and Manage Livepeer Nodes: Participants should be able to proficiently configure and manage their own nodes on the Livepeer network, ensuring secure and efficient operations.
Perform Video Transcoding: Participants should grasp the process of video transcoding using Livepeer and be capable of applying this knowledge effectively in practical scenarios.
Integrate Livepeer into Applications: Participants should possess the skills to seamlessly integrate Livepeer technology into their own applications and projects related to live video streaming.
Upload and Mint Video NFTs: Students will learn how to upload and mint video NFTs, expanding their practical expertise and enabling them to explore new opportunities in the blockchain and content monetization space."
This addition highlights the valuable skill of uploading and minting video NFTs, further enhancing the capabilities of participants in the blockchain ecosystem
How will this deliverable benefit the Livepeer ecosystem?
