The People Dao Africa NFT project is focused on helping the community at large and Africans as well, this proposal entails the needs of the project and contributions it will offer to PeopleDao and web3 in general, funding would help satisfy every financial need that may hinder the success of this project. This NFT project is a medium to showcase Africa's arts and the history behind them, telling most of the forgotten stories and events that took place centuries ago. Adapting web3 into this project will be absolutely mind blowing and a great way to evolve.
Web 3.0 as with any nascent requires experimentation. If this is truly an opportunity to build and create new paradigms, for these new structures to benefit previously excluded and marginalised groups requires participation, as well. And every new experiment is an opportunity to onboard more curious people into the web 3.0 ecosystem. This potential is especially exciting for African artists, in particular. Whereas the gatekeepers of the art world have had a say in not only who gets to participate, but what is considered valuable, the permissionless and democratised nature of web3 is a compelling alternative.
The big question on the value of art, and NFTs in particular, isn’t necessarily whether or not they have value, but who gets to decide. Africa isn't yet finding much success on NFTs, Blockchain, so many are still blinded to what web 3.0 is and that means the Africa market is yet to be explored.
This project is going to change the course of the African internet overnight and others who think that web 3.0 is a fad, let's see this Nft project as an opportunity to not only combine design and technology in the production of African artworks but to explore the questions of value and hegemony in the African context.
Also this project is set to increase confidence in a lot of Africans, most Africans know about NFT’s but have this mentality that only the outsiders (non Africans) are to participate in any NFT projects whether to buy or sell it. This is from PeopleDao Africa and we plan to carry on as many Africans as we can and also the world at large. We aim to be as successful as CFRAC NFT’s.
An NFT is a digital asset that exists completely in the digital universe—you can't touch it, but you can own it. An NFT can be any type of digital file: an artwork, an article, music or even a meme. NFTs took the world by storm in 2021, bringing forth a digital art revolution while becoming one of the fastest growing asset classes of the year.
The rise of NFTs has allowed us the authority to rent digital artworks out, to sell them or display them how we wish. Previously, the exclusive, illustrious world of art collecting and selling has been something that’s generally happened in physical spaces concerning physical artworks.
This NFT project showcases the evolving utility of NFTs, how they are already building and exposing the community at large and Africans to meaningful historical artworks/events that may have been forgotten, and sharing the bitter and fascinating history behind past occurrences, some of which may have been neglected as a result of civilization. The project gives us the opportunity to explore ancient art thereby, making them accessible to everyone and reminding Africans of their origin and the value of these pieces and also opening up the NFT adoption door plus Educating Africans as well.

This NFT project brings more awareness to the PeopleDAO ecosystem through many ways. Part of the design and the storytelling is built around people and community, and then $PEOPLE token as well since part of the revenue will be used to purchase $PEOPLE token and sent back to PeopleDAO treasury, minters must hold $PEOPLE in their wallet to mint, we plan to massively market this project on our new PeopleDAO Africa Twitter account as well and in general this project is a PeopleDAO project.
