IRCAI GLOBAL TOP 100 2022
The International Research Centre in Artificial Intelligence under the auspices of UNESCO is creating a list and index of Top 100 projects solving problems related to the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals with the application of Artificial Intelligence, from all five geographical regions: Africa, Europe and Americas, Asia and the Pacific, and the Middle East.
The main aim is to scope and showcase solutions from around the world that contribute to the SDGs by creating the world’s largest sustainable solutions platform, and helping these solutions grow even more effective and impactful. This means that we list and index solutions that are applicable and can credibly solve a real-life problem in development with a considered emphasis on ethics.
The 2022 call comes at the right time as submissions prove that the usage of AI in the field of sustainability is not just emerging but also thriving and coming from research groups across the world, permeating through start-ups, established companies, development agencies and non-profit charities.
We are partnering with Amazon AWS which will support the Top 10 projects with credits, mentoring, training sessions, and Village Capital and Social Finance which will provide training on investment and innovative finance, and outcome measurement.
