The United Nations and Blockchain Technology
Fait Muedini · New Global Studies · 2024
Abstract In this essay, I discuss the United Nations and its activities as they pertain to the use of blockchain technology. I argue that while this technology is rather new, the United Nations has been open to using such technological innovations to better solve human rights challenges that include fighting to end child trafficking, better distributing food aid, and reducing carbon emissions. Finally, the essay discusses the future prospects for blockchain technology and the UN.
