以下為李雨航理事長致辭全文

尊敬的各位領(lǐng)導(dǎo)、專家,、女士們, 先生們, 大家下午好,！

今天可能是國際會(huì)議啟動(dòng)的好日子, 第三屆灣區(qū)元宇宙大會(huì)暨AIGC、RWA發(fā)展高峰論壇在香港召開, 同時(shí)從16號(hào)到19號(hào)在第78屆聯(lián)合國大會(huì)高級(jí)別周的期間, 將召開多國元首與政府首腦參加的聯(lián)合國最高規(guī)格會(huì)議, SDG可持續(xù)發(fā)展目標(biāo)峰會(huì)與SDG數(shù)字日等系列活動(dòng), 我很榮幸受邀代表UNDSA線下出席聯(lián)合國紐約總部會(huì)議以及線上出席本屆元宇宙大會(huì), 考慮到全球還有2百萬在線觀眾關(guān)注我們的灣區(qū)大會(huì), 我先用英語介紹聯(lián)合國對(duì)元宇宙的觀點(diǎn),。

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals or “SDGs” comprise a comprehensive collection of 17 interlinked global goals designed to be a “blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all”. The SDGs were set up in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly and are intended to be achieved by year 2030.

In line with United Nations goal of advancing inclusive digital transformation, emerging technologies are being harnessed as part of a holistic approach to ensure that everyone benefits from the changes they bring about. In this light, there are both opportunities to accelerate progress on the SDGs, as well as risks that need to be managed in order to prevent digital harms and exacerbation of inequalities.

The metaverse is a growing network of virtual and augmented digital worlds that exist in parallel with the physical world. In simple terms, the metaverse can be thought of as the next major and three-dimensional evolution of the Internet which is part of the reason this collection of technologies is usually referred to as Web 3.0.

There are two broad models of the metaverse – open and closed. Closed worlds are owned and operated by companies with a self-contained ecosystem or ‘walled garden’. On the other hand, open worlds are decentralized and distribute ownership to users and contributors.

At these early stages of metaverse development, there are many possible opportunities to accelerate the United Nations SDGs, many of which are being explored. Covering a range of issues, the metaverse could be effectively harnessed to transform and enhance education; improve livelihoods and income generation; access public and private services; strengthen global cooperation and community building; boost citizen engagement; and enable new cooperative and collaboration models.

Conversely, there exist valid and potential concerns ranging from invasions of privacy, abuse of human rights, exacerbating inequalities and perpetuating societal biases, to environmental concerns about energy usage.

As the metaverse evolves, safe and meaningful innovation environments will need to be funded and established in order to create positive impact on the SDGs. As such, the following three inter-linked practical areas of immediate focus are proposed by United Nations:

1)Re-doubling efforts to close the digital divide: It is also essential to support digital literacy to ensure that everyone can participate in the metaverse, in a safe and meaningful way that improves their lives.

2) Bringing in perspectives from the Global South:Intentionally building and designing with the values, perspectives and talent from the Global South can strengthen the engagement and value proposition of different metaverse platforms.

3) Creating rights-based systems:In these virtual, boundary-less and seemingly jurisdiction free worlds of the metaverse, accountability and respect for human rights must be a priority. Whether virtual or offline, United Nations is a strong proponent of a rights-based approach to development.

朋友們:元宇宙的全部潛力只有在每個(gè)地方的每個(gè)人都能夠訪問它的時(shí)候才能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn),。只有這樣，我們才能真正釋放一個(gè)全球社區(qū)的用戶,，以彌合數(shù)字鴻溝,，確保包容多元的觀點(diǎn)，并在基于權(quán)利的體系中得到保護(hù),。在元宇宙中必要的保障措施之一將是強(qiáng)大而可問責(zé)的數(shù)字身份（最好通過其法定身份與真實(shí)人員相關(guān)聯(lián)）,，并進(jìn)行適當(dāng)?shù)谋O(jiān)督。隨著創(chuàng)新的蓬勃發(fā)展，開放的數(shù)字標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和負(fù)責(zé)任的治理機(jī)制必須成為新興平臺(tái)的共同要素,。就像我們生活在的物理世界一樣,，在元宇宙中，整體大于各個(gè)部分的總和,，每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該有機(jī)會(huì)分享觀念,、知識(shí)和經(jīng)驗(yàn)，以加強(qiáng)社會(huì),、推動(dòng)人類進(jìn)步并保護(hù)地球,。回顧互聯(lián)網(wǎng)在其起源時(shí)的承諾,，元宇宙可能會(huì)為所有人提供一個(gè)平等的平臺(tái),。這也意味著要確保弱勢(shì)和風(fēng)險(xiǎn)群體的參與，通過消除地理,、種族,、經(jīng)濟(jì)財(cái)富等傳統(tǒng)障礙。在這方面,，聯(lián)合國正在支持包容性數(shù)字公共基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的發(fā)展,，使人們能夠自由參與發(fā)展，并規(guī)劃通往包容和可持續(xù)未來的道路,。

元宇宙對(duì)聯(lián)合國17個(gè)SDG可持續(xù)發(fā)展目標(biāo)的支持角色非常大: 使用元宇宙可以為復(fù)雜昂貴的農(nóng)業(yè)機(jī)械提供增強(qiáng)現(xiàn)實(shí)/虛擬現(xiàn)實(shí)教程，并使用區(qū)塊鏈進(jìn)行食品的安全存儲(chǔ)和分配, 提供遙遠(yuǎn)地區(qū)居民醫(yī)療保健的元宇宙增強(qiáng)服務(wù), 使用沉浸式教程,、游戲化和模擬可以教育包括殘障學(xué)生在內(nèi)的多樣化人群。廣泛使用元宇宙,、物聯(lián)網(wǎng),、人工智能,、大數(shù)據(jù)和區(qū)塊鏈來管理和控制能源消耗, 支持不同地理區(qū)域的旅游、漁業(yè),、創(chuàng)業(yè)和家庭產(chǎn)業(yè),。使用元宇宙可以創(chuàng)建復(fù)雜的氣候變化模型,，以檢測(cè)和測(cè)量海浪和天氣條件的變化，并檢測(cè)地震, 處理藍(lán)色經(jīng)濟(jì)和海底探索的各個(gè)方面,。在高密度城市地區(qū)使用連接的警報(bào)系統(tǒng)和人工智能/機(jī)器學(xué)習(xí)功能,，迅速通知居民火災(zāi)。使用元宇宙與智慧星球模型,，多個(gè)機(jī)構(gòu)能夠互相交互支持,，以改善治理。

以上我們可以清晰地看到, 元宇宙得到了聯(lián)合國的大力提倡, 在SDG中起到了重要作用, 在技術(shù)更加成熟并與AI更加緊密結(jié)合之后, 我相信元宇宙會(huì)迎來下一個(gè)爆發(fā)期. 鑒于元宇宙及相關(guān)的區(qū)塊鏈,、Web 3,、AR/VR/XR、分布式數(shù)字身份等技術(shù)的重要性, 為了在聯(lián)合國數(shù)字技術(shù)框架下制定規(guī)則標(biāo)準(zhǔn),、儲(chǔ)備方法工具,、并加強(qiáng)產(chǎn)業(yè)國際合作, 聯(lián)合國數(shù)字安全聯(lián)盟UNDSA在聯(lián)合國科技委CSTD和世界數(shù)字技術(shù)院WDTA支持下, 決定設(shè)立元宇宙委員會(huì), 任命鄭定向先生為會(huì)長。最后感謝本屆大會(huì)和各界為揭牌儀式提供的鼎力支持, 后面還有眾多產(chǎn)業(yè)領(lǐng)袖與專家們的精彩演講與觀點(diǎn)分享, 祝灣區(qū)元宇宙大會(huì)在我們共同的努力與見證下取得圓滿成功, 也借此機(jī)會(huì)歡迎大家10月13日來寧波參加我們的世界數(shù)字經(jīng)濟(jì)大會(huì)開幕式和DWC數(shù)字世界大會(huì)先導(dǎo)論壇, 謝謝,！
