Bu konuda

IN THE EVER-EVOLVING landscape of technology, the advent of Web3
signals a new era of decentralisation and digital empowerment. Often
described as the decentralised internet, Web3 embodies a paradigm shift
from traditional centralised platforms to a peer-to-peer, communitydriven
ecosystem. Powered by blockchain technology, it promises increased
transparency, security and user control. As we navigate the complexities of
this nascent terrain, it becomes evident that the journey of Web3 has only
just begun. Of course, every technological innovation has its naysayers
and the market volatility and regulatory hurdles witnessed in trading
cryptocurrencies has already led to some scepticism.

ANEW DEVELOPMENT PARADIGM: More Synergies and Less Trade-Offs

INDIA’S PRESIDENCY has come at a decisive moment for the G20. It is no small feat to lead a heterogenous group of countries and draw consensus, especially in a world riddled with interlinked challenges. Against the backdrop of growing climate crisis, challenges to food security and the precarious stability of the global economy, 2023 calls for a presidency with paramount leadership skills to shape One Earth. One family. One future. This year, India’s focus on LiFE, resource efficiency and circular economy, and accelerating progress on the SDGs (the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals), among others, reflect an unwavering commitment to tackling the planet’s imminent threats. At the same time, as an emerging economy, India has clearly laid out its commitment to enabling an agile and flexible macroeconomic policy and sustainable and resilient growth while addressing the debt distress and related concerns of LMICs (low- and middleincome countries).
