With this milestone, the BC100+ initiative takes a momentous stride towards a more sustainable and inclusive future.
The Manifesto represents a commitment by the BC100+ signatories to leverage blockchain technology’s transformative potential for social good. It outlines a comprehensive set of guiding principles that shape the actions and goals of the BC100+ initiative. The initiative accepts applications from a diverse range of organizations from three target groups: blockchain projects and experts, UN offices with blockchain projects, and SDG projects with or without blockchain applications. Successful applicants will be accepted based on their alignment with the BC100+ Manifesto’s principles.
By becoming part of BC100+, organizations have the opportunity to be at the forefront of positive transformation through blockchain technology. They will gain access to a vibrant ecosystem of like-minded peers, forging new collaborations, and driving collective action towards shared sustainable development goals. Moreover, they will have the valuable opportunity to engage with other organizations, facilitating collaboration, organizing and participating in various events and activities, sharing knowledge and expertise, and exploring potential partnerships and opportunities.
While BC100+ has exciting plans for the future, the release of the Manifesto marks the first milestone of this system’s leadership. It sets the stage for an era of innovation and collaboration, where blockchain technology can be harnessed to address some of the world’s most pressing challenges, facilitating collaborative leadership to enable trust-building, learning and empowered action among stakeholders who share a common goal.

BC100+ is an initiative that brings together a variety of organizations across different sectors. The initiative’s main goal is to raise awareness about the potential of blockchain for social impact and sustainability. BC100+ explores the potential of blockchain technology to address systemic issues such as inequality, poverty, and climate change by rebuilding trust, empowering communities, asserting accountabilities, and re-distributing value on a global level. With its core features, blockchain technology could play a role in the acceleration of much-needed changes within our global food system, energy infrastructure, and biodiversity protection, among other issues. At the core, BC100+ intends to promote quality debate, raise awareness, and clarify the opportunities of blockchain’s role in realizing the UN Charter Values and the 2030 Agenda.
