Increasingly erratic and intense climate factors, such as precipitation, temperature, and wind, pose unprecedented risks to human health. Artificial intelligence and advanced analytics (AI/AA) can enhance our ability to adapt by describing complex, non-obvious relationships between climate and health factors; predicting scenarios over different time horizons; and recommending interventions with trade-offs to optimize health outcomes. USAID's Center for Innovation and Impact (CII) explores this nexus of climate change, global health, and AI/AA in their new report, Finding the Signal: Harnessing Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Analytics at the Intersection of Climate and Global Health.
The Aspen Institute Global Innovators Group and USAID's CII invite you to a discussion and networking session around Finding the Signal insights and opportunities for action with:
Gillian Caldwell, USAID, Chief Climate Officer
Alex Diaz, Google.org, AI for Social Good and Crisis Response & Humanitarian Aid
Engineer Bainomugisha, Airqo, Associate Professor & Chair of Computer Science at Makerere University, Kampala, Uganda.
Mauricio Santos-Vega, Research professor, Faculty of Medicine, Universidad de los Andes, Bogota, Colombia
