The Launch of the Information Awareness Month (IAM) 2020 was an online event with the theme Informed About Your Changing Environment, focused on the importance of the right information, how information can be derived, distributed, used (and misused) in critical situations (such as natural disaster, terror-attack, disease outbreak and similar) and what have we learned from the recent experiences.

Can Technology Help Us Discover and Manage Biological Threats?

Speaker: Maurizio Mencarini VP Global Strategic Partnership at Expert System, Italy

The invisible viruses such as COVID-19 raise biological threats, some of the scariest that our civilisation has ever faced.  Even nuclear risks are easier to monitor and identify.  Threats from new diseases and viruses are not only a health issue, but they are also a national security problem, impacting on our economy and driving massive social changes.
 
These are also scenarios where Artificial Intelligence (AI) can provide incredible support and provide innovative solutions

Preservation of Information and Misinformation Broadcast in Critical Situations

This year, Information Awareness Month was focused on the practices associated with handling information in critical situations, such as natural disasters, terror-attacks, disease outbreaks and similar events that have a significant impact on our lives, wellbeing, economy, lifestyle and shape who we as a nation are.  In this seminar, we will expand our dialogue on this theme with a spotlight on the preservation of information (and misinformation) linked with these situations.

Hybrid Models to Create Contextual Intelligence

Speakers: Pierre Saouter & Tooba Durraze World Economic Forum

WEF developed the Strategic Intelligence capability that uses Hybrid Intelligence to help make sense of the complex forces driving transformational change across economies, industries and global boundaries.  This capability incorporate expert and machine-curated knowledge, allowing users to visualise and understand a range of topics, as well as the connections and interdependencies between them.
