Proposal One Liner
A 4 week solidity bootcamp along with interview prep conducted for women by The Phoenix Guild.
Proposal Description
The Phoenix Guild has planned to organise a solidity bootcamp for women who are interested in learning the language and also motivating them by incentivising the learning process.
The guild was started in January, and in a short period of time we have onboarded more than 250 women onto the guild and won over 9000$ worth of bounties.
We have groups of women working on projects across different domains like NFT’s, DAOs, Alogovera, etc.

Solidity Bootcamp structure:
Genesis Cohort (Starting 18th April - 30th May and 2 weeks Prep+Support for Jobs/Grants)
Cohort-size:
Minimum: 20
Maximum: 100
Cohort-type:
Virtual and Asynchronous
- Except for 1-2 sessions, all the other study material will be given to you in your inbox/Discord and you can work with those in an asynchronous manner. You would be responsible for your own time and work submissions.
- There would be office hours by mentors and masterclasses, which are recommended but not compulsory to attend.
- The Bootcamp, specifically designed to cater to women, allows them to study during their own time and convenience.
We opened the registration for the bootcamp on the 18th of March and with an overwhelming response of 89 registrations have closed it 8 days prior to the closing date.
We have also onboarded 9 Solidity mentors and have finalised on 5+ Masterclasses.

Grant Deliverables
Deliverables
- Having at-least 5 women be a part of the Ocean Ambassador program.
- Women attempting Ocean bounties and grants.
- Having at least 20 women from this cohort who are able to attempt projects, bounties and work on hackathons independently.
Value Add Criteria
Value add to ocean:
- Ocean ambassadors can help spread the word about Ocean Protocol through community engagement, events and such. Several members from The Phoenix Guild are already contributing to this in the form of IRL meet-ups in Bangalore, India.
- The Solidity bootcamp will act as a launchpad for several women to get into the web3 system and explore. We are strong believers in the Ocean Mission and have already encouraged women from data background to explore Ocean.
However, the bootcamp will help them get closer to the Blockchain technology and they will be able to explore Ocean smart contracts and contribute to the core-tech developments
