Baudouin Muvunga

Are you currently part of the committee they are applying for?

Yes

Is there a particular role within the committee that you are interested in, if so which and why? (if applicable)

Yes, I believe that this committee determines the role that I play in my local community with support in financial education for young people.

What is your experiences within Intersect and Cardano?

I have been part of the Cardano community since 2021 and I now lead a community in the Nyiragongo territory in the DRC. I have been a community evaluator at Catalyst since Fund 9. I have been passionate about Cardano since I first met it. I now mentor young people in Web3 and blockchain matters, mainly integration with Cardano. I have already received support several times from Token MITHR (www.mithr.io), of which I am an ambassador in the DRC, but also from Intersect MBO to organize a meetup, face to face in June 2024 (https://updciongandintersectmboenglish.blogspot.com/2024/07/event-on-june-29-2024-in-nyiragongo.html).

What are your pledges and plans should you be elected?

As said before, I have already committed to being part of the people contributing to the expansion of Cardano in Africa and I want to continue doing so in any way possible.

Why should the community vote for you?

The community should vote for me to help me help other newcomers to the Cardano community.

Do you have any other Cardano affiliations or possible conflicts of interests, including you as an individual or an enterprise you are associated with?

Yes, I have other affiliations with Cardano, but no conflicts of interest. As the founder of a local organization in the DRC (UPDCI_asbl), I am part of Cardano Confederation (www.cardanoconfederation.org), but also I am a partner of Token MITHR.

Are you currently in receipt of or previously received any Intersect or Cardano funding or grant?

Yes, I have already received an Intersect MBO grant and I remain a candidate for several other ongoing grants (https://updciongandintersectmboenglish.blogspot.com/2024/07/event-on-june-29-2024-in-nyiragongo.html).
