Gitcoin Beta Round - ReFi DAO Local node.

We managed to organize our First ever ever regenrative Finance events in Dar es salaam and Njombe in Tanzania, we had a total of over more than 100 attendees including local government, waste pickers, regenerators and students where we engaged in discussions on the importance of regenerative practices, how new technologies such as blockchain and web3 can help as well as how they can benefit from them.

We also managed to onboard different regenerative startups to our local node where we now have 3 startups working together to create a regeneration infrastructure to source waste as raw materials.
We also managed to visit Zanzibar and engage with the local government where they are building a special economic zone and blockchain city and engaged with them on the importance of Regenerative Finance and how it could help drive investment in the region.
Furthermore, we have engaged with The University of Dar es salaam where we have been engaging with students on weekly webinars on Blockchain, Web3 and how it can be used in real world use cases
