This book investigates how smart technologies can play a crucial
role in the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
Focusing on FinTech as well as artificial intelligence, the author
demonstrates how one of the most effective strategies for
accelerating progress toward global development goals is to make
use of emerging technologies to broaden and deepen the scope of
action. The first part of the book offers a historical perspective
on sustainable development, financial technology and the emergence
of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, while the second part looks
in-depth at new technologies that can contribute to the realization
of the SDGs. The power of AI to reduce poverty and increase food
security, the implications of digital innovations for education,
the impact of AI on clean transport, the role of FinTech in
mitigating climate change, and ways in which AI can aid financial
inclusion are all discussed.
