On the Steem platform, we have a wide variety of various projects and initiatives, many of which surely deserve support and attention.

"With great Steem Power comes great responsibility" - Uncle Ben^[1]

However, one of these initiatives is unique and has a special place in my heart brain.

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) is something that has brought us where we are now.

Steem is a perfect platform for STEM, and I’m really glad that the #SteemSTEM community is doing so well.

Transparency, as used in science, engineering, business, the humanities and in other social contexts, is operating in such a way that it is easy for others to see what actions are performed. It has been defined simply as "the perceived quality of intentionally shared information from a sender".^[2]

I’m not selling my votes or delegated Steem Power to bots or voting platforms.

Among my eight outgoing delegations, six have been made to active members of the SteemSTEM community:
@justtryme90, @lemouth, @mobbs, @ruth-girl, @suesa, @trumpman.

Initially, the purpose was to incentivize their efforts for a month or so… but it turned out that this continued for at least eight months, over a year in some cases ;-)

Thank you for your hard work! I will update this list soon.

So what about the remaining two delegations? One went to @santarius, the best manual curator for the local #polish community, who gave me a chance to support the posts I wouldn’t have found myself, the other to... @utopian-io, which is yet another very important project that supports SteemSTEM

Italy will soon host SteemSTEM & Utopian.io Meetup, which will include hackathon.

All liquid funds from this post will be sent to @steemstem to support the meetup.

Feel free to use this promo video for the SteemSTEM needs.
