Mexican Collective DV
Introduction
The Mexico Collective is an initiative of 7 ambassadors who have consistently contributed to creating the Polkadot community in Mexico, as well as representing this significant community at various events in the United States and Europe. The ability to participate fully and freely in OpenGov is one of the main factors for social inclusion and the development of individuals within the ecosystem, which in turn strengthens the social fabric of the Polkadot community. A fair and inclusive society is built on inclusion, thus it is crucial that community members have the opportunity to express their voices, which also gives them the expectation of a better future for the ecosystem.

Philosophy and why we should be considered for DV:
For the Mexican Collective, it is a priority to create the necessary conditions for the incorporation of proposals from individuals who have demonstrated consistent and socially useful work. The challenge is enormous and demands a collective effort to enable us as a responsible community capable of embracing the diversity that defines us, and to go beyond mere discourse with concrete actions that make it possible for anyone to exercise their right to express opinions and make proposals. These are fundamental elements for progressing toward a more just and inclusive society.
Although humans are meant to live in society and interact with their peers across various settings, it is a reality that many individuals are excluded due to various factors. Among them are those who, lacking necessary resources, are deprived of the opportunity to express their opinions or voice, or due to this lack, find it challenging to secure a place in the ecosystem, resulting in exclusion and, consequently, a lack of economic and social opportunities.
Representing a prominent community in Mexico, both in quality and number of active users, we have firmly consolidated interest in Polkadot and organically promoted the adoption of web3 technology. In every event we organize, from planning to execution, we ensure that we maintain excellence in all aspects, including speakers and workshop leaders, to meet the highest standards of quality.

Armando, I’ve been part of the Polkadot ecosystem since 2020, and I was thrilled when I participated in the parachains on both Kusama and Polkadot. In 2022, I applied to become a Polkadot ambassador, and since then, I haven’t stopped participating with the Polkadot Mexico community in organizing events, workshops, presentations, and conferences, all with the goal of continuing to educate the Mexican community. At the moment, I am the Head Ambassador at Polimec and the Community Manager of Tododecripto, the number one community in Mexico for education in Web3, memes, etc. I’m eagerly awaiting the release of Polkadot 2.0 and everything it will bring us in the future with the new implementations.

Cesar has been in the crypto ecosystem since the beginning of 2020 and that same year he got to know the Polkadot ecosystem, but it wasn’t until 2021 that he began contributing as an ambassador for some other projects in the ecosystem (Moonbeam and SubQuery). As he became more active in the ecosystem, he started to become more interested in the workings of Polkadot itself. That is why, in 2022, he and a group of friends who are also Polkadot ambassadors officially created the Polkadot community in Mexico, organizing events for the Polkadot community in Mexico. He has had the opportunity to attend other Polkadot events in the United States and Europe, where he collaborated with KodaDot and Unique Network for the Ethereum Denver and side events. That is why he has had the opportunity to meet many members of the community. He has a channel on YouTube and TikTok where he creates content related to Polkadot, and on his Twitter account, he creates threads about the ecosystem.

RODRIGO I’ve been in the Polkadot ecosystem since mid-2020. Its token split movement caught my attention, and I wanted to get more involved. Not knowing many people in Mexico, I decided to seek community, and that’s when I found some very pleasant individuals who had formed the Polkadot Mexico group. I was invited to join the Polkadot Ambassador program and the Polkadot Mexico group. Since then, I’ve been involved with my colleagues in various meetups to raise awareness about the ecosystem and its various parachains and updates. We’ve always been attentive to people who have doubts about Polkadot technology. Additionally, the Polkadot Mexico YouTube channel was created to upload videos on various topics about Polkadot and practical cases so that people could understand actions to be taken more clearly. It’s been an incredible process, and we’re aiming for the Mexican community to be a reference both within and outside the country for teaching about the Polkadot ecosystem.
