The Aleo network is devoted to educating the public on the potential of applied cryptography and specifically zero-knowledge proofs in the context of decentralized technologies like the internet.

Its mission is to encourage an educational sandbox in which to explore this new but important design space, and to inspire and educate a diverse generation of developers (and aspiring developers) to explore the promise and potential of these technologies for promoting the public good.

It will do this by promoting awareness of open-source tool kits that leverage this technology, encouraging related training, fostering an open-source ecosystem of related technologies, and funding grants that help promote or leverage this technology.
