This event, organized by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), gathered global leaders from blockchain, international development, and policy domains to discuss the transformative power of blockchain technology in promoting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Conversations also considered the creation of a Blockchain Advisory Group to support ongoing efforts.
While Flock.io has not disclosed any specific initiatives or outcomes from the discussions today, it emphasized its distinctive role as the only decentralized AI infrastructure project participating in the dialogue.
For context, DeAI is rapidly growing within the crypto and AI sectors, offering open, accessible, and shared resources that empower smaller teams to develop AI applications without the high costs associated with centralized systems.
Flock.io in UNDP’s SDG Blockchain Accelerator
Flock.io’s involvement in today’s dialogue follows its previous recognition as an AI strategic partner in UNDP’s SDG Blockchain Accelerator, announced in August alongside Stellar (XLM). The accelerator is a global initiative launched by UNDP, in partnership with the Blockchain for Good Alliance (BGA) and EMURGO Labs, focusing on harnessing blockchain technology for social good and advancing the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Within the accelerator, Flock.io provides technical mentorship and assistance to pilot projects that utilize blockchain and decentralized AI technologies to tackle global issues, including climate finance, equitable energy access, social protection, healthcare, and supply chain transparency.
