Description
The Digital Public Goods Alliance (DPGA) is a multi-stakeholder initiative aimed at accelerating the attainment of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by facilitating the discovery, development, use of, and investment in digital public goods. These goods are defined as open-source software, open data, open AI models, open standards, and open content that adhere to privacy and other applicable laws, standards, best practices, and do not harm, thereby helping to ensure that digital interventions are freely accessible and contribute to the common good. The platform hosts a digital public goods registry, which identifies projects that meet the DPGA's standard for digital public goods, enabling easier access for governments, organizations, and individuals looking to implement solutions that are openly available and have been vetted for quality and impact. While not exclusively a blockchain or crypto project, DPGA's emphasis on open-source and collaborative development aligns with the ethos of the web3 community, fostering a pathway for blockchain projects that contribute to social good to be recognized and scaled.
