Code black girls, a non-profit focused on increasing the number of black women in technology sectors by providing technical training to girls aged 7 to 17 has worked with ConsenSys to establish the first nationwide blockchain training program for young black women .
The program will be extended to all the chapters of Black Girls Code, from Oakland, New York City, Atlanta and up to Johannesburg, South Africa. It will include an exhaustive complete blockchain program that includes lessons on cryptocurrency, troubleshooting user experience and the basics of blockchain technology. The course aims to become a gateway and an introduction to the blockchain ecosystem.
It is not just a theoretical curriculum: the partnership with ConsenSys allows students to put their ideas into practice & nbsp; taking part in some of the major conferences on blockchain developers in the world, from DevCon to Ethereal.
There will also be sponsorships for hackathons scheduled for program students. It's not just ConsenSys that can help both: the program helps to highlight and support exceptional students that the community-at-large blockchain can support.
The Ethereum Foundation, for example, sponsored two students of the program to go to DevCon 4 in Prague. The two girls, native of Oakland Belle Reader (12) and Cadence Patrick (15) were the youngest participants at the conference and were the first to receive grants from the Ethereum Foundation in its four-year history.
Belle and Cadence started to know bitcoin as much as the average lay person, almost nothing. It would have been prohibitive for them to get knowledge from a billing of the workshop to thousands of dollars, or events that can easily be sold for hundreds of dollars if not more. Thanks to the support of this program, both are now immersed in the blockchain ecosystem.
Black Girls Code used their token to motivate students through a curriculum in which they would learn how to create their own smart contracts and cryptocurrencies. From August 2018, nearly 60 young black women were introduced to the basics of the blockchain (from the development of Solidity to aspects of the cryptocurrency philosophy) through the program, and both partners are trying to increase it by another hundred for the new year.
"The ConsenSys team has constantly impressed me with their commitment to create paths for access and inclusion in the blockchain ecosystem and their passion for introducing these tools to the next generation. of programmers, "said Kimberly Bryant, CEO of Black Girls Code." Our technology divas of BGC have embraced blockchain technology vigorously and are excited by its potential to create fairness and impact on a global scale. extremely important addition to an already vibrant ecosystem that will thrive thanks to this influx of new ideas, perspectives and insights. "
This new collaborative course Blockchain also hopes to bring new partners to the community of cryptocurrency. They are already collaborating with partners such as the Ethereum Community Fund, the Human Rights Foundation and the Ethereum Foundation to help stimulate the initial growth they have found so far – and the sky is the limit, given the right resources and the right partners. & nbsp;
Black Girls Code is trying to grow to form a million girls by 2040, and is trying to become the "scout girls" of technology. With this bold step in the blockchain and cryptocurrency ecosystem, the program ensures that minorities and underrepresented groups both in technology and in cryptocurrency gain early exposure – and help keep important partners in the cryptocurrency space invested in success of those same groups.
