Context and Problem 
The Polkadot/C&oacute;digo Brazuca Academy training program commenced in July, launching our endeavor to establish a community of developers within the Polkadot ecosystem in Brazil. Our approved project, sanctioned by governance, encompasses various focal points that we have resolved to address and further develop based on the real-world circumstances we have encountered &mdash; <a href="../referenda/568).">https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/referenda/568</a>
Between the proposal submission and the release of the funds, the currency devalued by 28.52%. The initial budget was set at US$ 95,000.00, but the project received a total of US$ 67,715.00 when the funds were released. At the time, there was no option to request funds in USDC or USDT, which could have mitigated the impact of this fluctuation. The team delivered many project milestones in the following months and achieved good results in Brazil. However, the team needs the total funds of the original proposal to accomplish the entire project and to deliver to the Brazilian community all the content that as promised.

At the outset, our online program engaged around 450 students, with 18 participating in on-site sessions. Presently, our collective student and member count has reached 753 individuals. Notably, while our Discord server indicates active members, others have engaged at various intervals and may not be part of the current cohort. The program continues to demonstrate consistent growth in user numbers and has played a pivotal role in establishing significant partnerships within the Brazilian community. Notably, the S&atilde;o Paulo City Hall, the largest city in Latin America, will disseminate the program across the municipality, the Curitiba City Hall has come on board as a partner, and Petrobras intends to integrate some of the content for internal employee training. Furthermore, Instituto Eldorado, a prominent technology institute with programmers and professionals already catering to the Brazilian market, has also pledged support. These collaborations underscore the program's expanding reach and influence across diverse sectors in Brazil.

BUDGET 
You can review our initial budget in the proposal here: <a href="../referenda/568">https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/referenda/568</a>
<img src="https://i.ibb.co/DLDhBnW/expenses.png" alt="" width="740" height="253" />
So far, $47,657.25 has been spent on course administration, one month of marketing to attract students, student selection, Discord management, lesson editing, instructors recording and giving extra lessons to answer student questions, and teaching in-person classes. These efforts allowed us to deliver milestones 1 to 7. Additionally, we can complete milestones 8,9,10 (october, November and December) with the remaining funds of $20,057.75 (october, november and december), reaching 65% of the project's milestones.
The $27,545.72 will be used to complete milestones 11 through 15 (more 3 months - end march 2025) Due to a more extensive marketing campaign than initially planned, which extended over two additional months and reached recognized institutions, the project timeline requires an adjustment from 8 to 11 months. The campaign&rsquo;s success has brought in a higher number of students than anticipated, demanding a synchronous approach to content development aligned with students' learning needs. This iterative process has enabled a notable enhancement in content quality. Despite the extended timeline, the budget remains unchanged as it was designed around the deliverables. Therefore, the program will be fully delivered as per the proposal with the requested timeline adjustment.

Código Brazuca  Academy

General

Propose and approve a spend of treasury funds.

## Dispatch Origin

Must be [`Config::SpendOrigin`] with the `Success` value being at least
`amount` of `asset_kind` in the native asset. The amount of `asset_kind` is converted
for assertion using the [`Config::BalanceConverter`].

## Details

Create an approved spend for transferring a specific `amount` of `asset_kind` to a
designated beneficiary. The spend must be claimed using the `payout` dispatchable within
the [`Config::PayoutPeriod`].

### Parameters
- `asset_kind`: An indicator of the specific asset class to be spent.
- `amount`: The amount to be transferred from the treasury to the `beneficiary`.
- `beneficiary`: The beneficiary of the spend.
- `valid_from`: The block number from which the spend can be claimed. It can refer to
  the past if the resulting spend has not yet expired according to the
  [`Config::PayoutPeriod`]. If `None`, the spend can be claimed immediately after
  approval.

## Events

Emits [`Event::AssetSpendApproved`] if successful.

- **Problem Statement:** 
  - Currency devaluation impacted the Polkadot/Código Brazuca Academy project, receiving less funding than initially budgeted, hindering the completion of all proposed deliverables.

- **Significance:** 
  - The project aims to equip Brazilian developers with Polkadot skills, garnering support from key entities like S&atilde;o Paulo City Hall and Petrobras, showcasing its potential impact on the Brazilian tech community.

- **Proposed Solution:** 
  - Adjusting the budget allocation to complete remaining milestones, extending the project timeline to accommodate increased student numbers and enhance content quality.

- **Expected Outcomes:** 
  - Completion of all project milestones, including advanced Rust and Substrate/Polkadot SDK courses, fostering a robust Polkadot developer community in Brazil.
