Do great minds think alike? #2 Confronting the human cost of climate change

About the event

This seminar will explore how data science and AI can address the growing humanitarian cost of climate change.

The climate crisis is a serious threat to national and international security, with increasing pressure on economies, livelihoods, and food and water availability. The devastating impact of this may be unplanned, large-scale migrations or civil unrest as populations search for safer places to live or fight to hold on to their dwindling resources.

This unique event brings together experts from the AI and humanitarian sectors to discuss how the predictive power of AI could help to anticipate societal emergencies, providing governments and aid agencies with the information they need to deliver assistance where it is most needed. Join us as our specialist panel highlights the need for international, interdisciplinary collaboration in order to develop data-driven technologies that help the most vulnerable.
