Advancing Early Warnings through AI: Matchmaking & Pilot Accelerator As climate-driven disasters such as wildfires, floods, and landslides intensify, the Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT), Republic of Korea, is partnering with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) under the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Sub-group of the UN Early Warnings for All (EW4All) Initiative. As the lead of Pillar 3 on Warning Dissemination and Communication, ITU aims, through this project, to leverage AI to strengthen the effectiveness, reach, and reliability of early warning systems. Through the AI Sub-group of EW4All, the project will identify, match, and pilot AI-powered tools in two selected countries to improve early warning systems. It will foster strategic collaboration among ITU, National Information Society Agency (NIA), and other relevant EW4All partners across the UN system, the private sector and pilot countries. By deploying tailored AI solutions and producing a global best-practice report, the project will accelerate the development of scalable, AI-enabled early warning systems, contributing to EW4All’s vision that everyone, everywhere, is protected by early warnings. |
