  4. Buenos Aires' Ministry of Education, in collaboration with the ETH Kipu Foundation, is integrating Ethereum and blockchain technology into high school curricula. The program starts on August 27, aiming to provide students with hands-on experience in these technologies.

    Introduction to the School Program

    The program will include professional internships focused on blockchain projects, allowing students to engage with real-world applications of the technology. Paula D., co-founder of the ETH Kipu Foundation, believes that this initiative will open new career paths and place Argentina at the forefront of the global blockchain movement.

    Online Solidity Course

    In addition to the school program, the ETH Kipu Foundation is rolling out an online Solidity course for 500 students aged 18 and over. Solidity is the primary programming language used to develop applications on the Ethereum blockchain. The course aims to prepare participants to join the Ethereum development community and create applications integrated with local businesses, potentially boosting the regional economy.

    Teacher Training

    To ensure the success of the initiative, the ETH Kipu Foundation is focusing on training educators. A “hybrid training” program will be provided to 30 teachers, equipping them with necessary skills to effectively teach Ethereum and blockchain concepts. This is crucial for maintaining high educational standards and ensuring students receive accurate and up-to-date information.

    While currently focused on Buenos Aires, the initiative has the potential to expand to other cities or provinces in Argentina. Buenos Aires has already shown a progressive stance towards cryptocurrency, with plans to run Ethereum nodes by 2023.
