	'''World Community Grid''' ('''WCG''') is a [[volunteer computing]] platform dedicated to humanitarian and biomedical scientific research. It harnesses the idle processing power of everyday devices — personal computers, laptops, Android smartphones, and Raspberry Pi systems — to perform large-scale scientific calculations that would otherwise require decades of supercomputing time. Since its founding in 2004, the project has expanded to cover diseases including HIV/AIDS, cancer, tuberculosis, dengue fever, Ebola, Zika virus, and COVID-19, as well as research into clean energy, water purification, food security, and climate science.<ref name="ibm-org">{{cite web \|url=https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/about/about.s \|title=About Us \|publisher=World Community Grid \|access-date=2026-05-25}}</ref>		'''World Community Grid''' ('''WCG''') is a [[volunteer computing]] platform dedicated to humanitarian and biomedical scientific research.
