In our current Information and Knowledge Society, data is vital. And the organization for this, its the most. Decentralized the problems is the way to resolve them. Collective Intelligence, is like useful software. Arquitectura of Information could be thinking like a Biologic system.

Blockchain, distributed ledger technology is the new emergent technology that promises to solve many problems and helps to reduce inequality.

It possible to see the blockchain benefits off according to the UN Sustainable Development Goals applied in different parts of the world.

For example: In Tajikistan, helps migrant workers transfer money through a mobile app running on a blockchain. In Moldavia could speed up access to electricity, thanks to that an online marketplace that finances solar power with crypto-currency, SolarCoins, based on the amount of solar energy produced. In Ecuador, the adoption of blockchain offering end-to-end
tracking, security, and low transaction costs, changed production and consumption habits globally. In Lebanon, to start a blockchain project for the crowdfunding platform focuses on generating awareness and reforestation.

On the other hand, blockchain can help refugees and migrants in transit, creating a universal digital identity that allows access to essential and sometimes life-saving services. A crucial aspect of establishing one’s personality into the show what we own because most of the times can be destroyed during crises or disasters or tampered with through fraud and corruption. A kind of system tested in Syrian refugees in Jordan.

Nevertheless, any global development organization, like UNDP transfers and
moves money around the world and blockchain is good to optimizing effectiveness and combating corruption.

However, any technology carries the risk of widening the gap…. and blockchain also has that the same challenge, universalizing and operating in conditions of technological poverty.
