A Web3 training was presented by Polygon in conjunction with Impact Plus and Harmony at the iHub innovation and incubator center in Nairobi. The training provided developers with skills to advance their careers and to prepare them for the upcoming Gender Hackathon. The training included a “Polygon” section.
The introductory training course covered technical and non-technical aspects of blockchain protocol paying special attention to tech-for-good cases on identity, agriculture, environment, and more. Topics covered included distributed ledger technology primitives, issues, trends, and smart contracts for new financial business models. African creators exchanged ideas, built networks with similar-minded individuals, and gained valuable advice from international developers and community members. The training consisted of 72 developers, 26% of whom were women, with at least one year of coding experience using JavaScript, Python, and other tools. Through a follow up pole on metti.com, students had the opportunity to ask further questions and provide feedback. Many students went on to attend the hackathon and were able to share their newly acquired knowledge of Polygon protocol.
