Description
My project should receive funding because it is the only one of this type in the East African region and enables more people not only in East Africa but also other parts of the world to know about the existence of Decentraland and become members of this community.Growing, educating, moderating, and maintaining a healthy community of players, creators, and developers is important to Decentraland’s success.So the radio programmes on the Local FM Radio in the names of Freedom Radio 94.7FM in Kabale Municipality South Western Uganda and through seminars carried out in Kirigime Guest House,Kabale Town Uganda,will enable;Community education,Outreach and event organization and Moderation at the same time.
The project shall also include creating documentation, tutorials, videos, or other forms of content intended to educate and support the community.Through this community project,content creators,platform contributors and those involved in gaming will brought onboard to Decentraland.It will enable members of the community be computer literate,know and be able to share their talents,creativity and innovations with the rest of the world and improve on their economic status and knowledge as well as social empowerment.These will increase the membership of Decentraland hugely as the radio programmes and seminars will be recorded and channeled through channels that increase publicity and interest in joining and use of Decentraland.
Specification
The project will be done and completed through two radio programmes preceded by radio announcements and two workshops all of which will be video recorded and whose recording will be channeled though u-tube and any other application allowing for such and links to it shared though social media,emails blogs etc so as to publicist Decentraland more.I together with other 2 skilled people in presentation of radio programmes will voluntarily be the guest presenters of the radio programmes about Decentraland and related content.We shall produce related content for the radio programmes as well as for the seminars in form of printed and recorded materials.During workshops teaching aids such as projectors and printed as well as recorded materials will be used.We shall pay for being hosted on the local FM radio 2 times as well as carrying out 2 seminars in a rented conference hall of a hotel where the participants will be financially facilitating for meals, accommodation and transport themselves.Each radio programmes has a listenership of 8 million people while the seminars each will accommodate 50 participants.

The two 2 -Hours radio programmes with the related announcements and materials to use will each cost US Dollars 300 thus totaling to US Dollars 600.
The 2 whole day seminars about Decentraland will include renting of the conference hall,teaching aids,public communication system and printed and recorded materials to use at a total cost of US Dollars 400 per day = USD 800
Thus USD600+USD 800 = USD 1400
