Hello!
We spoke about the timeline for offline events. July is very early to get this funded based on the delay that could set in in getting funded. I would advice this begins August instead.

However, I will allow core contributors of RCWG @Bakaka @kiskesis @Ola snd @jlwaugh to give their opinion about the timeline.

Can this go beyond creating wallets to onboarding via near.social?

Also, seeing possible activities on the NEAR bOS?

We are flexible with the meetups agenda and can adjust the timeline to accommodate the preferences of the Near network. Our goal is to maintain consistency by organizing at least one meetup per month. Ideally, we would like to schedule a meetup in July, but we are open to being agile and adaptable.

I will address each of your questions individually and provide a response for each one:
• Can this go beyond creating wallets to onboarding via Near Social?
Certainly, our focus will extend beyond just creating wallets to encompass the onboarding Near Social.
• Are there any potential activities planned for NEAR BOS?
Regarding NEAR BOS, we are currently exploring the possibility of incorporating it into an upcoming summit in collaboration with Esprit University. One of the proposed ideas is to organize a hackathon specifically for NEAR BOS. We believe this is a valuable opportunity to showcase its capabilities and engage participants in building innovative solutions. We would be happy to discuss and further develop this concept together in cooperation with our partners.

Projects presented on NEAR Horizon can be good too.

Please, work on the timeline of the events as we need to provide funding before the event dates.

Thank you for your proposal and the wonderful job done by Web 3.0 NAA in educating communities about Web 3.

Thoughts and Suggestions:

  • You submitted a fund request in your first forum post in April Forum post , and there have been so many comments, including mine, about your initiative vision that we are all happy to support you and with some suggestions and thoughts from other MDAO council members, especially one by AVB.

  • From @satojandro “I am confused between the relationship between ‘North Africa Blockchain/Hub’ and Near North Africa’. As I understand it, North Africa Blockchain is an ecosystem-agnostic group working to grow Web3 in the region.” His thoughts and suggestions are important to go through again with your team in order to refine your strategies and processes. NB: am not saying your current process is wrong.

This concern remains valid, which leads me to my question too.

  • Are you looking for funding for your initiative in the form of a grant to host the events? Because there is nothing like Near written in your name across all of your platforms and handle names as a Near representative for North Africa. Correct me if am wrong

  • The RCWG-DAO explicitly states that newly established communities must build for at least three months and learn about the ecosystem before submitting any proposal, which includes participating in community calls to learn more about the ecosystem and what is going on and contributing to the ecosystem’s growth in your newly formed community social groups. You don’t have one because your request is more of a grant request for web3 NAC engagements and has nothing to do with the Near North African Community, which doesn’t exist.

Suggestions:

  • If you want to be a part of and recognized as a Near Regional Community, build a community focused on Near Protocol Ecosystem products, activities, and services.

  • My POV, if possible, change the names of all your social accounts to include the word “Near.” if you want it to be recognized as Near North Africa,

  • Even without funding, posting about ecosystem trends at least once a week in your groups is not difficult, and this increases engagement and user growths, We encourage increasing the number of organic users in your current groups and handles.

  • We all understand how difficult and time-consuming it is to build a community, that is why we are always willing to support the newly community, not just with funds where needed.

At this stage, I won’t support this proposal.

Am happy to have a call and discuss the way forward to see how to align.

Thank you

Thank you, Igboze, for your Comment. We have made the decision to postpone the plan by one month, and the new dates for the meetups are as follows:

Meetup 1: August 9, 2023 in Tunis.
Meetup 2: September 13, 2023 in Sousse.
Meetup 3: October 4, 2023 in Sfax.

I would like to express my gratitude for your valuable comments and insights. We greatly appreciate your input, and we assure you that we will take it into careful consideration.

First and foremost, I want to provide further clarification on our vision to ensure a clear understanding. We are a community of passionate developers dedicated to driving the adoption of web 3.0, with a particular focus on the NEAR Network. We firmly believe in the immense potential of the NEAR Network and have been actively working since the beginning of this year to establish a strong foundation. Our first proposal was submitted after three months of dedicated effort, and we have been consistently engaged since February 2023.

I propose scheduling a meeting in the next few days to delve into our ongoing initiatives in more depth. During this meeting, we can explore potential areas of improvement and collectively optimize the development of the North African region.

Once again, thank you for your valuable feedbacks, and I eagerly anticipate our upcoming discussion.

Hello team! Thank you for your proposal. MDAO is considering events and supports regional communities that are representing the Community. Since MDAO will be launched in NDC soon, let’s postpone the initiative to the next month.

Hi @Talelbg thanks for the proposal and enthusiasm around hosting future events. I think there is enough feedback here from the Regional Community DAO team to show we need to push back the timeline for this. I would recommend incorporating/addressing feedback from @Bakaka, participating in the NEAR ecosystem for the requested three months and coming back in the future with perhaps a funding request for one event so we can gauge progress before allocating for multiple initiatives. In the meantime, I encourage you to keep building and participating in NEAR.
