Abstract

In this chapter, we provide a broad overview, together with some examples, of how these emerging technologies can help provide solutions in support of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. The UN and many other NGOs, together with investors, researchers and technology companies, are converging to start building solutions to some of the thorniest problems in this area. We explain the background to the sustainable Fintech movement and present some top-down and bottom-up use cases that are abstractions of a number of projects being developed in emerging economies today.
