AVENUES OF DISCUSSION

9:30-11:00

Access to energy and the promotion of renewable energy are United Nations Sustainable Development Goals specifically aimed at solving the dual challenge of a growing population and an “electricity divide”. One billion people are still living without electricity while access to clean energy is pivotal to achieve Climate Action, Food Production or employment.

The tokenization of energy through blockchain promises to support peer-to-peer Energy Trading, Green Energy Certificates and Smart Grid operations. It also facilitates new decentralized energy models such as individual self-consumption and local energy production. What is the state of the art in the decentralized energy field? What are the real-life projects to date? What is their current impact and what are the challenges that lay ahead?

11:30-13:00

Carbon markets are considered as a major tool to limit climate change. They provide economic incentives to reduce, remove, sequester or avoid CO2 and GHG emissions. While many countries have their own carbon market, the diversity of measurement, reporting and verification methodologies raises questions about integrity and harmonization.

The tokenization of carbon market and carbon credits can address multiple issues of these mechanisms. What are the existing carbon tokenization projects and how do they differ from traditional ones? Can they make a difference? What needs to be done to significantly scale up solutions curving GHG emissions?

14:00-15:30

Agriculture accounts for more than a quarter of the global workforce who is responsible for feeding the growing world population while adapting to rising temperatures, soil quality deterioration, scarcer freshwater and an increasing number of climatic disasters. Transitioning to sustainable agriculture and achieving food security require stronger standards, better governance and greater coordination between producers, trade infrastructures, supply chains, and consumers.

Can blockchain technologies enhance trust and transparency from producer to consumer, ensuring a fair value distribution across the supply chain? Can tokenization enable reliable access to funding, insurance, and markets for sustainable agricultural projects? How do emerging projects use decentralized tools to empower farmers and protect the conditions of living of local farming communities?

16:00-17:30

• Forward talk: Human Ecosystemic Services by Carole Lipsyc, PhD, CEO & Co-Founder, INGIES, The {contributive} Initiative, Epistemologist

While not a single ESG standard is globally accepted, relevant initiatives in the Impact Blockchain ecosystem have developed interesting methodologies for issuance of Web3 nature-based assets.

Is it possible to set up common standards and criteria to measure what is usually not quantifiable such as environmental and social benefits? How does tokenization revolutionize natural capital markets?

18:00-19:30

Today, 850 million individuals still do not have access to an official ID, and for people who do, their identity is often provided by a trusted third party, public or private, with little interoperability with other identity systems or with digital ecosystems. Giving people access to secure, verifiable and user-centric digital identities is essential to ensure equal and inclusive access to essential services, be it healthcare, education, financial services, social benefits, or participation in governance. Web3’s decentralized digital identity solutions are designed to give back to users verifiable ownership over their own data and identifiers.

How can new decentralized identity systems help us achieve sustainable development goals? What are the challenges to implement these new solutions in a trustworthy, privacy-respecting, inclusive and accessible manner? How do these new technical architectures impact our very understanding of what personal identity actually is?

• Forward talk : Hadar Rottenberg, CTO, Good Dollar, Why we need a universal currency for funding the Commons and public goods building the productive force of #ReFi

This is a creative event where the idea is to express in multiple different media what value is and how it might be created and distributed in the world by virtue of the programs we choose to exchange via and the relationships they imply.
