Description

In an era defined by rising environmental stress and geopolitical volatility, the need for integrated, forward-thinking solutions has never been more urgent. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers transformative potential for addressing sustainability challenges—but its deployment also raises critical questions of equity, resilience, and governance. This keynote explored how AI is increasingly being leveraged to anticipate, mitigate, and respond to the dual pressures of climate disruption and violent conflict.
