2021: Unique Network Platform Selection

On August 13, 2021, representatives of the Unique Network NFT platform announced that they had been selected and accredited by the UN-Habitat and the International Association for the Advancement of Innovative Approaches to Global Challenges (IAAI GLOCHA) as the DigitalArt4Climate 's leading technical partner.

DigitalArt4Climate This is an initiative to combat climate change. Unique Network, developed by Usetech, is a blockchain for non-replaceable tokens (NFT), which has a huge range of capabilities in this area and operates according to the model of a scalable solution with proof of ownership (proof-of-stake). Substrate - the technology based on the Unique Network blockchain is actively used and developed, the project is part of the Kusama and Polkadot ecosystems.

As the climate crisis continues to escalate, it is crucial to involve young people around the world in decision-making. To this end, the United Nations has recognized NFT technology as a creative expression environment that can help strengthen reporting on climate change actions. NFT is a way for artists to monetize their work globally, and continue to receive payment for their work for a long time after its sale. Artists anywhere in the world can attract an international audience of collectors who support their work and mission, and the UN wants to bring this innovative form of art to the next generation of artists who can benefit from technology that can help them expand and monetize their work.

The initiative DigitalArt4Climate seeks to empower young artists, designers and activists around the world to create artwork that can inspire people to act against the global climate crisis. Technology has long been a resource for activism, and NFT is an environment optimized for the digital age. Unique Network will create and host the NFT marketplace DigitalArt4Climate to showcase the work of artists and web designers. The trading platform will be built on a ready-to-use set of Unique Network NFT solutions, which uses blockchain technology optimized to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon dioxide emissions .

To address the climate crisis, the United Nations understands the need to use any available tool to inspire people to take serious action to combat climate change, said Miroslav Polzer, founder and CEO of GLOCHA. We believe that combining digital innovation (IoT, data markets, NFT) with social innovation will lead to the creation of scalable systems with a high level of involvement. We concluded that Unique Network's innovative and flexible infrastructure is a platform that will help us take action against climate change. Through this initiative, we will benefit from the mobilization of human resources and energy throughout humankind to create a sustainable world.

We are pleased to demonstrate that the principles of distributed registry and open data technologies can be used to support those who are ready to make efforts to combat climate change, to help them identify specific actions that they can take, "said Alexander Mitrovich, CEO of Unique Network. Unique Network is very proud to cooperate on initiatives related to the United Nations, a world organization dedicated to paradigm change and equality. We believe that the future of human expression will be linked to NFT, and we seek to show the world how they can unite our disparate communities in the struggle to save our planet.
