DAS (Digital Asset Series) 2023 – Session #3 : How Can Web3 Help Achieve The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Co-hosted by : Gratia Christian College

In 2015, the United Nations created 17 goals for sustainable development. These interdependent goals would pave the way for a better future for all by 2030. Web3 has technologies like the blockchain which will help provide innovative solutions to meet these goals. Web3 provides core opportunities in finance, economy, governance, and innovation which is at the backbone of every goal stated in SDG.
