About the Webinar

In the field of disaster management, artificial intelligence (AI) helps convert observations into actionable intelligence—whether in the form of (e.g.,) hazard maps, forecasts, decision-support tools, or chatbots. However, application of AI is non-trivial: many technical and ethical decisions need to be made across the AI life cycle, which can impact the performance and adoption of the model. This webinar will look at the activities of a UN Focus Group to systematically develop best practices and standards in the use of AI for this application.
