The ITU Global Initiative on Resilience to Natural Hazards through AI Solutions in Geneva is a high-level international forum focused on leveraging artificial intelligence to strengthen disaster resilience and climate adaptation worldwide. Organized under the leadership of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the initiative brings together policymakers, technology leaders, researchers, humanitarian organizations, and industry experts to explore how AI can help predict, mitigate, and respond to natural hazards.

The initiative highlights the role of AI-driven early warning systems, predictive analytics, geospatial intelligence, and real-time data platforms in managing risks related to earthquakes, floods, wildfires, storms, and other climate-related disasters. Sessions address innovation in digital infrastructure, resilient communication networks, satellite technologies, and ethical AI governance in disaster management.

Taking place in Geneva, a global hub for international cooperation and digital policy, the event fosters cross-sector collaboration between governments, UN agencies, academia, and the private sector. Participants share best practices, case studies, and policy frameworks that support scalable, inclusive, and responsible AI solutions for disaster risk reduction.

By promoting innovation, global cooperation, and technology for good, the ITU Global Initiative on Resilience to Natural Hazards through AI Solutions plays a vital role in advancing sustainable development, protecting vulnerable communities, and building a more resilient future.
