SI-SIG PHASE ONE DELIVERABLES

Opportunity Matrix -- this document and supporting material will highlight where DLT can be used for social impact and illustrate the specific areas of focus, across sectors, for the SI-SIG, weighing its feasibility and potential impact. It will include, but is not limited to:

Philanthropy and remittances (donation traceability, aid transparency, digital currencies in aid and development, governance and accountability)
Financial empowerment (financial inclusion, microfinance, microinsurance)
Identity and land rights (refugee assistance, land ownership documentation)
Governance and democracy (fighting censorship and fake news, voting rights and protections, election integrity)
Supply chain and environmental protections (sustainable supply chain, fair trade, ethical sourcing, fair labor practices)

Landscape analysis of existing blockchain solutions under development and currently being implemented.
Identifying development challenges and pain points that blockchain could help to alleviate.
Outlining technical challenges and opportunities for technical development.

OPPORTUNITY MATRIX

An opportunity matrix is a tool for collecting and prioritizing ideas.

The goal is to generate ideas on a grid that aligns potential opportunities, measured against their feasibility and impact.

Collectively, we can group, discuss and prioritize areas of potential impact, anticipated long-term value and amount of effort to implement.

Our opportunities for social impact are immense, but we can’t boil the ocean. This will help us to size, assess and prioritize where we can best apply our resources.

STEP ONE:

TAKE STOCK

What are some of the areas that represent this sector?

What organizations are currently trying to provide support and/or solve this problem? (Technical and non-technical)

Who are the potential stakeholders? (Who must we work with, bring on board, align with, convince...to be successful)

STEP TWO

ASSESS

Define the journey

Where is this sector in its journey? What steps are needed to get to the next level? What does success look like when this initiative is no longer needed?

Define the headwinds

What challenges need to be overcome? Where might they rank from easy (we need to track a school district’s meals) to more challenging (governments around the world must agree)

Define the impact

If we get this right, what happens? (This can be a phase in the journey above)
