Can AI truly support a more sustainable future, or is it only creating new environmental and societal challenges?

We’re inviting collaborators from academia, policy, tech, and industry to join this conversation during the upcoming Digitalization, AI, and Sustainability Roundtable!

The event is organized together with SSH Breed and Erasmus Centre for Energy Transition. Together, we are going to explore the transformative impact of digitalization and AI on our planet and its resources – how to balance negative impacts with the positive potential of these technologies. We will discuss the latest insights from multiple perspectives, examine real-world use cases, and explore how we can work together between academia, business, government, and civil society to create a more sustainable world using the Sustainable Development Goals as our framework.

Whether you’re a researcher, policymaker, tech innovator, or industry expert, we welcome you to share your experience and ideas, which are essential in shaping a responsible and sustainable future.

 Key questions we’ll explore:

• How can we balance the environmental cost of AI with the drive for innovation?
• In what ways can AI support climate change mitigation and biodiversity conservation?
• How can we mitigate the environmental impact of AI, and how can it be linked to sustainable energy production?
• How can we make users more aware and influence them to adopt sustainable behaviors?
• What will it take to accelerate AI for Good and drive real progress toward a more sustainable world?

Interested? Reach out to ecda@eur.nl before September 19 to get involved!

Let’s shape a sustainable, innovative, and socially responsible future, together.
