宣布。LidoNation在肯尼亚推出Cardano区块链实验室
去年，丽都国度与一群年轻的大学毕业生建立了联系，当我们开始探索在肯尼亚的合作关系和培训项目时，他们与我们一起工作。达林顿与两个年轻人开始了一个开发者指导计划，斯蒂芬妮与另一个小组带头开展了一个 "测试项目"，将我们的一些文章翻译成斯瓦希里语，这是肯尼亚的官方语言之一。
斯瓦希里语翻译项目促成了我们在 "催化剂项目 "上的首批资助提案之一–将我们网站的其他内容翻译成斯瓦希里语在下一轮 "催化剂计划 "中，开发者学员和我们的新翻译团队的共同努力帮助我们在迄今为止最大的 "催化剂计划 "提案中获得了赞成票，即在肯尼亚建立一个官方的Cardano实验室。
恩贡路区块链实验室也是通过与恩贡路之友（FoNR）、恩贡路儿童基金会（NRCF）和新成立的TechMates培训项目合作实现的。 FoNR/NRCF为内罗毕青年提供学校教育和支持，否则他们将无法获得良好的教育。TechMates是一个新设立的培训项目，致力于帮助项目毕业生进入他们在科技界的成人职业。正是这个项目中的年轻成年人与我们一起启动了实验室。
在接下来的九个月里，我们将继续并扩大我们在实验室的项目。实验室的参与者是丽都国度的带薪承包商（通过项目催化剂资助），因此他们能够拿出有意义的时间和精力与我们一起学习和成长。
开发者指导计划将接待新一批的被指导者；达林顿将继续领导这个计划，但我们也将期待我们的资深参与者担任导师，并开始在未来的团体中担任一些领导角色。完成该计划的学员将获得宝贵的区块链编程技能，这将为他们打开很多有意义的工作机会。
翻译计划也将继续进行，然后随着目前的翻译团队在夏季中期之前 "赶上 "Lido Nation的翻译，开始发展。虽然翻译是他们的首要任务，但翻译团队也被要求对Cardano进行 "研究"。这种学习部分是为了告知他们的翻译工作，但也将帮助他们为他们在实验室的下一个角色以及其他角色做好准备。他们的第一个新项目将是写一些原始的Cardano文章–用斯瓦希里语！他们将提供英文翻译，同时也会提供给他们。他们也将提供英文翻译，但我们很高兴能够开始为我们在非洲新的和不断增长的受众提供斯瓦希里语的内容。
我们的下一个目标是开始为这个 "社区建设 "团队在Cardano生态系统内创造可持续的工作机会。我们正在开发一个课程，培训实验室参与者如何参与Cardano社区内的有偿工作，首先是为Project Catalyst提供社区咨询。 这项工作不一定容易，但对于任何愿意投入一些时间和精力的人来说是可以实现的。在未来，这个团队可以帮助培训新的实验室参与者从事这项工作。
我们在实验室的每一个项目都是一个起点–我们希望每个与我们一起参与实验室的人都能体验到个人的成长并找到新的机会。我们也希望看到对Cardano的认识和参与的有机增长，因为实验室的参与者能够成为他们同行中的当地领导者。我们为TechMates迄今为止所做的工作感到非常自豪，并期待着继续与他们合作–因为未来是属于每个人的!
