Thanks @Georgia for sharing this proposal, I really like the structure and the focus on regional presence. It’s encouraging to see this kind of thoughtful approach to community building and ecosystem growth.

I was wondering how the ambassador selection process is envisioned. Will it be an open call, or more of a nomination-based approach?

Hey, thanks for the question!!

Here’s a rough draft of the process I had in mind:

  • CV screening
  • Initial 30-minute call with the Community Manager
  • Task (could be proof of work, etc.)
  • Final interview with the Ecosystem Director
  • Offer

I’m still working on the details, but this is the initial outline.

I think it’s great to have these ambassadors. It would be much better if the payments were made in USDRIF or DOC.
