Climate-related destruction and disruptions are on the rise, which is why investing in risk management and preparedness, as well as building resilience to cope with the aftermath of disasters, is of growing importance. Integrated technologies play a fundamental role in this.

Integrated adaptation frameworks and decision-support tools that anticipate multi-dimensional risks and accommodate community values are more effective than those with a narrow focus on single risks. There is a clear and present need to explore funding structures and technologies—from innovations around infectious diseases, to safeguarding against floods, insurance tools and capitalizing on progress in sensor technologies—that can advance joint efforts for development and climate action, especially in developing countries.

This is a global problem that requires a global effort. Developed countries are being urged to significantly scale up technology transfer, climate finance and capacity-building for adaptation to respond to the needs of developing countries as part of this global effort, which includes the formulation and implementation of national adaptation plans and adaptation communications. In this session the speakers focus on innovative integrated technologies. They will discuss the benefits, key enablers, location or sector specific challenges, and the general difficulties.

Climate-related destruction and disruptions are on the rise, which is why investing in risk management and preparedness, as well as building resilience to cope with the aftermath of disasters, is of growing importance. Integrated technologies play a fundamental role in this.

Integrated adaptation frameworks and decision-support tools that anticipate multi-dimensional risks and accommodate community values are more effective than those with a narrow focus on single risks. There is a clear and present need to explore funding structures and technologies—from innovations around infectious diseases, to safeguarding against floods, insurance tools and capitalizing on progress in sensor technologies—that can advance joint efforts for development and climate action, especially in developing countries.

This is a global problem that requires a global effort. Developed countries are being urged to significantly scale up technology transfer, climate finance and capacity-building for adaptation to respond to the needs of developing countries as part of this global effort, which includes the formulation and implementation of national adaptation plans and adaptation communications. In this session the speakers focus on innovative integrated technologies. They will discuss the benefits, key enablers, location or sector specific challenges, and the general difficulties.

The Earth is dominated by water: about 71% of the Earth’s surface is covered by water and the oceans alone hold about 96.5% of the Earth’s total water. Water also exits in the air as water vapor, in the ice caps and glaciers, in rivers and lakes, in soil and in underground aquifers. The water cycle, or the continuous movement of water between Earth’s surface and the atmosphere, distributes water and regulates global weather patterns and is therefore fundamental to life on the planet. Furthermore, the oceans produce about half of the oxygen in our atmosphere, acts as a sink and reservoir for greenhouse gases, support all biodiversity, and are responsible for the existence of a large variety of ecosystems that are critical to our wellbeing and the health of the planet.

Despite their life-giving role, the health of the oceans is deteriorating at an alarming rate as a result of human activities and climate change. Eutrophication, acidification, warming, deoxygenation, deforestation, overfishing, and pollution are some of the threats to the health of our oceans, which in turn adversely affects, directly or indirectly, biodiversity, the proper functioning of ecosystems and the welfare of billions of people.

The plenary session will feature discussions related to the current state of the oceans, the resilience coastal communities, and the blue economy.

The Earth is dominated by water: about 71% of the Earth’s surface is covered by water and the oceans alone hold about 96.5% of the Earth’s total water. Water also exits in the air as water vapor, in the ice caps and glaciers, in rivers and lakes, in soil and in underground aquifers. The water cycle, or the continuous movement of water between Earth’s surface and the atmosphere, distributes water and regulates global weather patterns and is therefore fundamental to life on the planet. Furthermore, the oceans produce about half of the oxygen in our atmosphere, acts as a sink and reservoir for greenhouse gases, support all biodiversity, and are responsible for the existence of a large variety of ecosystems that are critical to our wellbeing and the health of the planet.

Despite their life-giving role, the health of the oceans is deteriorating at an alarming rate as a result of human activities and climate change. Eutrophication, acidification, warming, deoxygenation, deforestation, overfishing, and pollution are some of the threats to the health of our oceans, which in turn adversely affects, directly or indirectly, biodiversity, the proper functioning of ecosystems and the welfare of billions of people.

The plenary session will feature discussions related to the current state of the oceans, the resilience coastal communities, and the blue economy.

Advanced technology innovation ecosystems in the United States of America are by and large clustered in a relatively small number of cities. These include Boston, Seattle, Austin, San Diego and the well-known cluster in the San Francisco area. All of these clusters are characterized by specialization and the agglomeration effects of the human networks involved. To date these areas have continued to generate enhanced levels of innovation, economic growth, and productivity despite high salary and housing costs.

The success of these innovation ecosystems stems from the implementation of long-term incentives, investments, and collaborations among governments, academia, corporations, NGOs, financial entities, and others. Given the urgency to address sustainability challenges, achieving rapid innovation and implementation successes at the global level is critical.

This session will address specific strategies and opportunities focusing on the Boston life sciences cluster and the Brazilian and Belgian efforts in life sciences and sustainability technologies. The panel discussion will be supplemented by presentations by four advanced technology companies that represent a sample of the specific opportunities of the G-STIC conference. Emerging companies such as these represent an important, concrete, pathway to achieve the rapid advances necessary to address major sustainability challenges through international collaborator networks.

Advanced technology innovation ecosystems in the United States of America are by and large clustered in a relatively small number of cities. These include Boston, Seattle, Austin, San Diego and the well-known cluster in the San Francisco area. All of these clusters are characterized by specialization and the agglomeration effects of the human networks involved. To date these areas have continued to generate enhanced levels of innovation, economic growth, and productivity despite high salary and housing costs.

The success of these innovation ecosystems stems from the implementation of long-term incentives, investments, and collaborations among governments, academia, corporations, NGOs, financial entities, and others. Given the urgency to address sustainability challenges, achieving rapid innovation and implementation successes at the global level is critical.

This session will address specific strategies and opportunities focusing on the Boston life sciences cluster and the Brazilian and Belgian efforts in life sciences and sustainability technologies. The panel discussion will be supplemented by presentations by four advanced technology companies that represent a sample of the specific opportunities of the G-STIC conference. Emerging companies such as these represent an important, concrete, pathway to achieve the rapid advances necessary to address major sustainability challenges through international collaborator networks.

The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the huge inequities in access to vaccines and the gap in the level of immunization between developed and developing countries and especially in the least developed countries. These disparities made global efforts to tackle the pandemic harder. They led to more hospitalizations and deaths, and exacerbated the impacts of long covid. Economies were also unevenly impacted as different countries emerged from the worst of the pandemic at different rates. These consequences were felt far more acutely in the most vulnerable countries.

The pandemic also exposed and exaggerated the imbalance in access to technology and the inequitable terms related to technology transfer agreements. The dependency on critical health goods and consumables manufactured by a few countries became even more evident, especially when the pandemic started to impact the supply chain and restrict the flow of goods around the world. All of these issues point to the urgent need for greater international collaboration and unity so the world is better prepared for the next major health emergency. This starts by addressing local health needs and ensuring that there is equal access to immunization and vaccines.

During this event, the first panel will address the funding mechanisms that are needed to accelerate vaccine innovation. The second panel will highlight some of the regional experiences of creating skills for local production and investment in the development and introduction of new vaccines to support immunization programs. They will also express their ideas about how to and address public health emergencies.

The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the huge inequities in access to vaccines and the gap in the level of immunization between developed and developing countries and especially in the least developed countries. These disparities made global efforts to tackle the pandemic harder. They led to more hospitalizations and deaths, and exacerbated the impacts of long covid. Economies were also unevenly impacted as different countries emerged from the worst of the pandemic at different rates. These consequences were felt far more acutely in the most vulnerable countries.

The pandemic also exposed and exaggerated the imbalance in access to technology and the inequitable terms related to technology transfer agreements. The dependency on critical health goods and consumables manufactured by a few countries became even more evident, especially when the pandemic started to impact the supply chain and restrict the flow of goods around the world. All of these issues point to the urgent need for greater international collaboration and unity so the world is better prepared for the next major health emergency. This starts by addressing local health needs and ensuring that there is equal access to immunization and vaccines.

During this event, the first panel will address the funding mechanisms that are needed to accelerate vaccine innovation. The second panel will highlight some of the regional experiences of creating skills for local production and investment in the development and introduction of new vaccines to support immunization programs. They will also express their ideas about how to and address public health emergencies.

Onshore carbon accounting schemes have been effective at encouraging different industries worldwide to use carbon reduction techniques. However, there is currently no marine carbon credit system in place. A blue carbon credit system will have to be based on a solid carbon accounting model but the reality is that there are still significant knowledge gaps in marine carbon accounting. This is related to the controversial character of developing ocean negative emissions technologies (NETs). As a consequence, CO2 reduction is not yet a major driver for the development of a sustainable blue economy. Applying the onshore GHG protocol for ‘anthropogenic’ carbon accounting in a marine context, and taking into account the best available knowledge on marine carbon accounting, may be the way forward. This deep dive explores the need to develop such a carbon accounting system and what it could look like.

The Amazon River Basin plays a central role in the Earth’s hydroclimate system and the wellbeing of the entire global population. What happens in the Amazon affects not only the region, but the world. However, high levels of deforestation and land degradation are weakening the forest’s role in moderating the climate. The demise of the Amazon basin also has significant impacts on human health and well-being, particularly its indigenous populations.

But there is hope for the Amazon and its populations. The recently elected government in Brazil has set a goal of zero deforestation by 2030 and plans to reverse a decree that weakened measures to combat illegal mining. A Ministry of Indigenous Peoples has been created and is led by an Indigenous leader. A coalition of Pan-Amazonian countries has begun international negotiations to secure the necessary financial resources to protect the Amazon. The Inter-American Development bank recently announced it will grant US$73.5m to promote a deforestation containment plan.

These commitments must be informed by clear, reliable, and up-to-date data, provided by scientists and experts. This discussion, led by a panel of esteemed scientists, will focus on the importance of the Amazon to the region and to the world and its current predicament. The scientists will debate possible solutions and what can be done to assist with informed decisions about the future of the Amazon and critical role it plays.

The Amazon River Basin plays a central role in the Earth’s hydroclimate system and the wellbeing of the entire global population. What happens in the Amazon affects not only the region, but the world. However, high levels of deforestation and land degradation are weakening the forest’s role in moderating the climate. The demise of the Amazon basin also has significant impacts on human health and well-being, particularly its indigenous populations.

But there is hope for the Amazon and its populations. The recently elected government in Brazil has set a goal of zero deforestation by 2030 and plans to reverse a decree that weakened measures to combat illegal mining. A Ministry of Indigenous Peoples has been created and is led by an Indigenous leader. A coalition of Pan-Amazonian countries has begun international negotiations to secure the necessary financial resources to protect the Amazon. The Inter-American Development bank recently announced it will grant US$73.5m to promote a deforestation containment plan.

These commitments must be informed by clear, reliable, and up-to-date data, provided by scientists and experts. This discussion, led by a panel of esteemed scientists, will focus on the importance of the Amazon to the region and to the world and its current predicament. The scientists will debate possible solutions and what can be done to assist with informed decisions about the future of the Amazon and critical role it plays.

We are currently living in the “trembling twenties,” facing enormous challenges such as climate change and loss of biodiversity. At the same time, we are witnessing the rapid evolution of digital technology. In this context, how can artists contribute to a more sustainable world?

The European project S+T+ARTS aims to bridge the gap between artists and researchers, working together to find innovative solutions to help make our world more sustainable and beautiful. Selected artworks of Christophe De Jaeger dealing with artificial intelligence, climate and culture will be presented.

The compelling Glacier Trilogy by Theresa Schubert focuses on glaciers and the melting of glaciers as starting points of fluvial systems. Glaciers hold an extreme importance not only as storages of water but also as a memory of the earth’s past and as indicators of climate change. Glacier ice archives millennia-old (an)organic information, such as microorganisms, pollen, and atmospheric dust, allowing scientists to acquire knowledge about ancient ecosystems and to predict future climate change.

Theresa Schubert developed an AI-based video that displays slowly emerging and dissolving synthetic mountain landscapes with glaciers. The work functions as a kind of machine dream of the future that tries to imagine what glaciers looked like in former times.

The project is based on found footage sourced in Italian archives, ranging from photographic images of Alpine glaciers dating from 1860 to handwritten field notes and sketches in notebooks dating back to 1920-1950 by Italian geologist Ardito Desio.

The collected data nourished different machine learning models, which transformed the material into a mesmerizing aesthetic collage, revealing the glaciers in a new poetic way. The sound composition consists of spoken noted from Ardito Desio and a multi-layered voice of an opera singer improvising to the seen imagery.

We are currently living in the “trembling twenties,” facing enormous challenges such as climate change and loss of biodiversity. At the same time, we are witnessing the rapid evolution of digital technology. In this context, how can artists contribute to a more sustainable world?

The European project S+T+ARTS aims to bridge the gap between artists and researchers, working together to find innovative solutions to help make our world more sustainable and beautiful. Selected artworks of Christophe De Jaeger dealing with artificial intelligence, climate and culture will be presented.

The compelling Glacier Trilogy by Theresa Schubert focuses on glaciers and the melting of glaciers as starting points of fluvial systems. Glaciers hold an extreme importance not only as storages of water but also as a memory of the earth’s past and as indicators of climate change. Glacier ice archives millennia-old (an)organic information, such as microorganisms, pollen, and atmospheric dust, allowing scientists to acquire knowledge about ancient ecosystems and to predict future climate change.

Theresa Schubert developed an AI-based video that displays slowly emerging and dissolving synthetic mountain landscapes with glaciers. The work functions as a kind of machine dream of the future that tries to imagine what glaciers looked like in former times.

The project is based on found footage sourced in Italian archives, ranging from photographic images of Alpine glaciers dating from 1860 to handwritten field notes and sketches in notebooks dating back to 1920-1950 by Italian geologist Ardito Desio.

The collected data nourished different machine learning models, which transformed the material into a mesmerizing aesthetic collage, revealing the glaciers in a new poetic way. The sound composition consists of spoken noted from Ardito Desio and a multi-layered voice of an opera singer improvising to the seen imagery.

We are currently living in the “trembling twenties,” facing enormous challenges such as climate change and loss of biodiversity. At the same time, we are witnessing the rapid evolution of digital technology. In this context, how can artists contribute to a more sustainable world?

Christophe De Jaeger will introduce the European project S+T+ARTS which aims to bridge the gap between artists and researchers, working together to find innovative solutions to help make our world more sustainable and beautiful. He will present selected artworks dealing with artificial intelligence, climate and culture.

Via creative strategies and aesthetic experiences, Theresa Schubert encourages through her artworks a more respectful human behavior towards nature and confronts visitors with issues of our current world in (climate) crisis. Combining novel technologies such as machine learning models and biotechnical methods, her works offer an emotional connection to otherwise intangible data and phenomena. Specifically, Schubert will present artworks developed during her STARTS4Water residency at Cittadellarte – Fondazione Pistoletto in Italy where she investigated the impact of climate change on the Alpine regions’ fluvial systems and glaciers.

Via creative strategies and aesthetic experiences, Theresa Schubert encourages through her artworks a more respectful human behavior towards nature and confronts visitors with issues of our current world in (climate) crisis. Combining novel technologies such as machine learning models and biotechnical methods, her works offer an emotional connection to otherwise intangible data and phenomena. Specifically, Schubert will present artworks developed during her STARTS4Water residency at Cittadellarte – Fondazione Pistoletto in Italy where she investigated the impact of climate change on the Alpine regions’ fluvial systems and glaciers.

Access to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) is a basic human right that is still lacking in many parts of the world. Peri-urban and rural areas in developing countries are particularly affected as these areas do not normally have a proper water infrastructure. When there is an infrastructure, it is often prone to failure due to limited capacity, resources and/or the political will to maintain a widely dispersed system. There are also problems with repair and maintenance, and when a system fails, it is often not repaired quickly, if repaired at all. Under these circumstances, people are forced to get water from alternative sources which can be some distance away, or even pay for it to be transported, making it unreliable and unaffordable to meet basic WASH needs.

The UN World Water Development Report 2021 highlights the fact that an integrated approach to WASH can lead to improved health, increased school attendance, greater privacy and safety especially for women, children and the most-vulnerable individuals, and provide a greater sense of dignity for all. The current frameworks to establish sustainable long-term WASH in peri-urban and rural areas revolve around the combination of technological innovations and social interventions. Quite often, the technology will be working as it should but more needs to be done to get people to use it, especially in deeply rural or marginalized areas.

This session will share the lessons learnt from successful WASH projects in peri-urban and rural areas and will highlight breakthroughs to sustainable WASH in marginalized areas. The panelists will present successful cases of sustainable WASH in South America, India and Africa.

Access to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) is a basic human right that is still lacking in many parts of the world. Peri-urban and rural areas in developing countries are particularly affected as these areas do not normally have a proper water infrastructure. When there is an infrastructure, it is often prone to failure due to limited capacity, resources and/or the political will to maintain a widely dispersed system. There are also problems with repair and maintenance, and when a system fails, it is often not repaired quickly, if repaired at all. Under these circumstances, people are forced to get water from alternative sources which can be some distance away, or even pay for it to be transported, making it unreliable and unaffordable to meet basic WASH needs.

The UN World Water Development Report 2021 highlights the fact that an integrated approach to WASH can lead to improved health, increased school attendance, greater privacy and safety especially for women, children and the most-vulnerable individuals, and provide a greater sense of dignity for all. The current frameworks to establish sustainable long-term WASH in peri-urban and rural areas revolve around the combination of technological innovations and social interventions. Quite often, the technology will be working as it should but more needs to be done to get people to use it, especially in deeply rural or marginalized areas.

This session will share the lessons learnt from successful WASH projects in peri-urban and rural areas and will highlight breakthroughs to sustainable WASH in marginalized areas. The panelists will present successful cases of sustainable WASH in South America, India and Africa.

Large amounts of untreated wastewater worldwide are still released into streams and rivers, leading to contamination of these vital water supplies. According to the UN World Water Development Report 2021, only 8% of domestic and industrial wastewater is treated in low-income countries, compared with an average of 70% in high-income countries. This poses a serious threat to public health and the environment, especially in developing countries with rapidly growing populations, where the situation is likely to get worse.

Sustainable Development Goal 6.3 focusses precisely on improved water quality, wastewater treatment and safe reuse. Nonetheless, there is growing concern around emerging contaminants such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, PFAS, and viruses. Although often present in low concentrations, the impact of these pollutants is yet unclear. Monitoring is key to assess the accumulation of pollutants, pathogens, and emerging contaminants in water. Monitoring wastewater streams is vital as these can be an indicator of the general health of a population.

Assessing the health risks around wastewater reuse is also crucial. First, this must be looked at from a technology perspective: how is research and innovation being applied to reuse as a safe and sustainable measure for climate adaptation? Secondly, the societal aspect: how do people feel about wastewater reuse? During this session, the panelists will present ways to balance the real and perceived health risks from water reuse and how to change the way people think about this.

Although often present in low concentrations, the impact of these pollutants is yet unclear. Monitoring is key to assess the accumulation of pollutants, pathogens, and emerging contaminants in water. Monitoring wastewater streams is vital as these can be an indicator of the general health of a population.

Assessing the health risks around wastewater reuse is also crucial. First, this must be looked at from a technology perspective: how is research and innovation being applied to reuse as a safe and sustainable measure for climate adaptation? Secondly, the societal aspect: how do people feel about wastewater reuse? During this session, the panelists will present ways to balance the real and perceived health risks from water reuse and how to change the way people think about this.

Large amounts of untreated wastewater worldwide are still released into streams and rivers, leading to contamination of these vital water supplies. According to the UN World Water Development Report 2021, only 8% of domestic and industrial wastewater is treated in low-income countries, compared with an average of 70% in high-income countries. This poses a serious threat to public health and the environment, especially in developing countries with rapidly growing populations, where the situation is likely to get worse.

The Center for Data and Knowledge Integration for Health (CIDACS) of the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Fiocruz) and The Rockefeller Foundation are co-hosting this session to share the co-creation journey and future stages of their joint initiative – the launch of the Alert-Early Warning System for Outbreaks of Pandemic Potential (AESOP) in Brazil.

There are already numerous predictive modeling tools designed to forecast disease emergence and inform public health decision-making. Most of these models rely on a few basic data inputs and are limited in scope and scale. The cutting-edge AESOP tool integrates far more data points and combines infectious disease surveillance data streams and non-health data such as climate change, habitat destruction, and socio-demographics. It is also envisioned that AESOP will become an advanced and predictive modeling tool using AI/machine learning supported by a federated network system research centers, local to national public health entities, and relevant governmental and non-governmental organizations.

There has been significant progress with AESOP since its launch in June 2022. This session will focus on the following:

  • celebrating the Fiocruz-Rockefeller Foundation co-creation journey in the development of AESOP;
  • highlighting the vision for AESOP and its use in early-warning outbreak surveillance and detection;
  • sharing insights into AESOP’s cutting-edge innovation and its development stages;
  • showcasing progress to-date and AESOP’s emerging dashboard and system;
  • exploring AESOP’s potential benefits to the surveillance ecosystem.

The cutting-edge AESOP tool integrates far more data points and combines infectious disease surveillance data streams and non-health data such as climate change, habitat destruction, and socio-demographics. It is also envisioned that AESOP will become an advanced and predictive modeling tool using AI/machine learning supported by a federated network system research centers, local to national public health entities, and relevant governmental and non-governmental organizations.

There has been significant progress with AESOP since its launch in June 2022. This session will focus on the following:

  • celebrating the Fiocruz-Rockefeller Foundation co-creation journey in the development of AESOP;
  • highlighting the vision for AESOP and its use in early-warning outbreak surveillance and detection;
  • sharing insights into AESOP’s cutting-edge innovation and its development stages;
  • showcasing progress to-date and AESOP’s emerging dashboard and system;
  • exploring AESOP’s potential benefits to the surveillance ecosystem.

The Center for Data and Knowledge Integration for Health (CIDACS) of the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Fiocruz) and The Rockefeller Foundation are co-hosting this session to share the co-creation journey and future stages of their joint initiative – the launch of the Alert-Early Warning System for Outbreaks of Pandemic Potential (AESOP) in Brazil.

There are already numerous predictive modeling tools designed to forecast disease emergence and inform public health decision-making. Most of these models rely on a few basic data inputs and are limited in scope and scale. The cutting-edge AESOP tool integrates far more data points and combines infectious disease surveillance data streams and non-health data such as climate change, habitat destruction, and socio-demographics.

History has shown that a variety of hazards can affect health and well-being. These include natural disasters, chemical, radiological, physical, and biological hazards such as epidemics, pandemics, emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) and bioterrorism. Environmental hazards, particularly those exacerbated by the climate emergency, are also on the rise. The huge cost of these hazards and health emergencies on people and economies illustrate why preparedness to face such threats at all levels (local, regional, national, and international) is so vital.

Urban areas have unique vulnerabilities that make them more prone to the impacts of health emergencies. This is a concern as more than 50% of the world’s population live in urban areas, and scientists calculate that this will increase to 70% by 2050. This means that preparedness for health emergencies in cities is especially important.

During this session the speakers will explore the capacities that make local actors essential in mitigating health hazards. They will also debate what constitutes preparedness and the role different stakeholders can play in this process.

The bioeconomy lies at the heart of sustainable development. It exploits the untapped potential stored within millions of tons of biomass, which apart from being a source of renewable energy, can also be used to produce sustainable chemicals and other materials. Moving from a fossil fuel-based to a biobased economy will inherently be more sustainable and contribute to climate and environmental protection. The bio-economy is central to Europe’s Green Deal and is applicable anywhere in the world.

Brazil’s venture into bio-based products began in the 1970s and today it is still a forerunner in this industry and the world’s leading producer of bioethanol. It has utilized its massive sugar cane and eucalyptus plantations in abandoned land far away from the Amazon to establish a strong fiber and chemicals-based industry.  Brazil’s expertise in the bioeconomy has attracted a lot of attention because of its potential role in stabilizing global climate change.

The future of bioproducts as an enabler of climate neutrality and circularity will be discussed in this session.

The bioeconomy lies at the heart of sustainable development. It exploits the untapped potential stored within millions of tons of biomass, which apart from being a source of renewable energy, can also be used to produce sustainable chemicals and other materials. Moving from a fossil fuel-based to a biobased economy will inherently be more sustainable and contribute to climate and environmental protection. The bio-economy is central to Europe’s Green Deal and is applicable anywhere in the world.

Brazil’s venture into bio-based products began in the 1970s and today it is still a forerunner in this industry and the world’s leading producer of bioethanol. It has utilized its massive sugar cane and eucalyptus plantations in abandoned land far away from the Amazon to establish a strong fiber and chemicals-based industry.  Brazil’s expertise in the bioeconomy has attracted a lot of attention because of its potential role in stabilizing global climate change.

The future of bioproducts as an enabler of climate neutrality and circularity will be discussed in this session.

According to IRENA, bioenergy from solid biomass, biogas and biomethane and liquid biofuels now constitutes a large share of renewable energy use (9% of total primary energy supply in 2019) and will continue to be a significant source of fuel for both industry and transportation.

However, it is important to note that there are challenges related to the use of biomass as an energy source. Among them is the competition over land use between crops used for animal and human food production. The seasonality inherent in the production of feedstocks used as substrates for biofuels production and the challenges related to the pre-treatment of biomass for its conversion into biofuels should also be highlighted.

This session will present case studies about biomass technology industrialization. There will be a discussion about the challenges and barriers to scaling up biomass technology, as well as the aspirations of investors and industry for large scale commercialization. The speakers will also exchange best practices and the lessons they have learned so far.

According to IRENA, bioenergy from solid biomass, biogas and biomethane and liquid biofuels now constitutes a large share of renewable energy use (9% of total primary energy supply in 2019) and will continue to be a significant source of fuel for both industry and transportation.

However, it is important to note that there are challenges related to the use of biomass as an energy source. Among them is the competition over land use between crops used for animal and human food production. The seasonality inherent in the production of feedstocks used as substrates for biofuels production and the challenges related to the pre-treatment of biomass for its conversion into biofuels should also be highlighted.

This session will present case studies about biomass technology industrialization. There will be a discussion about the challenges and barriers to scaling up biomass technology, as well as the aspirations of investors and industry for large scale commercialization. The speakers will also exchange best practices and the lessons they have learned so far.

The widespread use of renewable energy is an essential component of sustainable development. However, what works in one country or region may not work so well in a different part of the world, due to the available resources or other bottlenecks that inhibit renewable energy utilization.

The Renewable Energy Comprehensive Utilization System aims to solve the technical bottlenecks and model issues of unstable resource supplies, low conversion rates, the low degree of multi-energy complementarity, and the mismatching of application scenarios. By opening up a complete innovation chain from basic research and core technology breakthroughs to industrial applications, the Renewable Energy Utilization System is going to  improve the coupling between renewable energy and its applications.

This session will cover key coupling technologies and potential application scenarios for renewable energy utilization.

The widespread use of renewable energy is an essential component of sustainable development. However, what works in one country or region may not work so well in a different part of the world, due to the available resources or other bottlenecks that inhibit renewable energy utilization.

The Renewable Energy Comprehensive Utilization System aims to solve the technical bottlenecks and model issues of unstable resource supplies, low conversion rates, the low degree of multi-energy complementarity, and the mismatching of application scenarios. By opening up a complete innovation chain from basic research and core technology breakthroughs to industrial applications, the Renewable Energy Utilization System is going to  improve the coupling between renewable energy and its applications.

This session will cover key coupling technologies and potential application scenarios for renewable energy utilization.

Artificial intelligence could be used to mitigate and overcome the gaps in schooling that stemmed from classroom closures during the pandemic. However, the lack of connectivity and devices available to students and teachers in most public schools from peripheral and vulnerable regions and communities, including indigenous and quilombola people, has accentuated regional inequalities.

The de facto inclusion of students and teachers will only be possible if they are granted access to connectivity, devices, and teacher training.

The speakers in this session will highlight the potential use of technology to improve learning opportunities, especially for vulnerable groups.

The need to re-think education systems in light of the advances in artificial intelligence is essential, but it requires significant engagement with all stakeholders, regulatory frameworks, and cross-sector collaboration, as well as ensured internet connectivity.

The rapid pace of change in the global economy means that acquiring job-related technical skills is no longer enough. There is an urgent need to provide people with soft skills, such as metacognitive and entrepreneurial skills, critical and creative thinking, and social and emotional intelligence.

The old model based on learning, working, and retiring is no longer applicable. A new model that focuses on learning, engaging, and the ability to adapt to change at all stages of life is more appropriate to address both individual and societal needs.

Enterprises should be encouraged to get involved in lifelong learning processes. On the one hand, many adults worldwide still struggle with basic literacy and numeracy. On the other hand, vocational education creates new opportunities for innovation, employability, and capacity building, while fostering social and economic development.

Enterprises should be encouraged to get involved in lifelong learning processes. On the one hand, many adults worldwide still struggle with basic literacy and numeracy. On the other hand, vocational education creates new opportunities for innovation, employability, and capacity building, while fostering social and economic development.

The increasingly evident impacts of climate change should be the catalyst we need to adapt and to become more resilient. Technologies and innovation can help, especially those that offer a transformative rather than an incremental approach to adaptation. This requires innovative thinking to break the status-quo, the engagement of key stakeholders throughout the processes that will be needed, and investments in capacity and other resources.

As part of its new rolling workplan for 2023-2027 the TEC aims to identify and analyze emerging and transformational technologies for adaptation, especially early warning systems and disaster risk management. The role of finance and the private sector in supporting their deployment is also covered by the workplan. Early warning systems (EWS) are key elements of disaster risk reduction, and are widely regarded as the low-hanging fruit for climate change adaptation because they are a relatively cheap and effective way of protecting people and assets from hazards. The Early Warnings for All initiative launched by United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres in 2022, and the associated Executive Action Plan spearheaded  by the WMO and partners announced at COP27, shed light on the fundamental role that technology can play to enhance the capacity of countries to detect hazards, close the observations gap, and ensure that early warnings reach the last mile.

The speakers will discuss some emerging technologies for multi-hazard EWS and the challenges, opportunities, and good practices for their deployment. They will also focus on people-centered and inclusive approaches that leave no one behind.

The increasingly evident impacts of climate change should be the catalyst we need to adapt and to become more resilient. Technologies and innovation can help, especially those that offer a transformative rather than an incremental approach to adaptation. This requires innovative thinking to break the status-quo, the engagement of key stakeholders throughout the processes that will be needed, and investments in capacity and other resources.

As part of its new rolling workplan for 2023-2027 the TEC aims to identify and analyze emerging and transformational technologies for adaptation, especially early warning systems and disaster risk management. The role of finance and the private sector in supporting their deployment is also covered by the workplan. Early warning systems (EWS) are key elements of disaster risk reduction, and are widely regarded as the low-hanging fruit for climate change adaptation because they are a relatively cheap and effective way of protecting people and assets from hazards. The Early Warnings for All initiative launched by United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres in 2022, and the associated Executive Action Plan spearheaded  by the WMO and partners announced at COP27, shed light on the fundamental role that technology can play to enhance the capacity of countries to detect hazards, close the observations gap, and ensure that early warnings reach the last mile.

The speakers will discuss some emerging technologies for multi-hazard EWS and the challenges, opportunities, and good practices for their deployment. They will also focus on people-centered and inclusive approaches that leave no one behind.
