In addition to curriculum development, the BITGET program connects UNICEF with prominent blockchain protocols and Web3 developers. They can serve as mentors and partners, thus bringing a variety of technical perspectives to the program.
“Our focus is to equip teen girls with science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) skills to help close the gender skills gap,” Bitget CEO Gracy Chen told Cointelegraph.
She said Bitget is working with UNICEF to develop a scalable approach that integrates blockchain education into global curriculum and leverages the opinions of top Web3 experts to keep the training practical, relevant and accessible to all learners.
Globally, teen girls and young women in low- and middle-income countries lose about $15 billion in economic opportunities each year due to limited internet access and digital skills. 90% of today’s work requires digital capabilities, and the partnership between Bitget and UNICEF is designed to bridge the gap.
Innovative methods and technologies to reshape blockchain education
As part of the partnership, Exchange’s education division, Bitget Academy, will help design UNICEF’s first interactive blockchain training module, combining online and in-person meetings. This module will focus on using video game creation to teach the basics of blockchain.
“Learning gamification breaks complex themes to their core,” Chen said. “About 3.3 billion people around the world play games, and when our environment is interactive and supportive, we learn best most naturally.”
In addition to gamification, emerging technologies like generative AI are also leveraged to expand access to professional digital skills. Changpeng Zhao, former CEO of Binancegiggle Academy, envisions a free, globally accessible K-12 education offered by AI-Craunt Courses.
