Community Systems Foundation
This concept note outlines Community Systems Foundation’s vision to incorporate blockchain technologies into OpenEMIS Logistics. As a web-based application that seeks to track the delivery of education items to schools, integrating blockchain technologies into OpenEMIS Logistics would provide users with an immutable data ledger to track a shipment from the point of sale to point of delivery.
Along all points in the shipment process “blocks,” or chains of data, would record the exact status of the shipment at any given time. From the moment they are packaged to the moment they are delivered, the blockchain system would help ensure the equitable distribution of quality educational resources.
Through the application of blockchain technology, OpenEMIS Logistics can be deployed to support a results-based financing model, triggering cash transfers when verified milestones are met. In this regard, the OpenEMIS Logistics blockchain system would allow for greater transparency and accountability in the education sector.
