As global leaders gather in New York for UNGA 79 and Climate Week this September to ensure that the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) remain at the forefront of the global agenda, on the sidelines, the Bay Area Global Health Alliance, Accenture, NetHope, the Society for International Development United States, and the United Nations Association–National Capital Area are co-hosting an evening networking reception on September 24 that will explore how the SDGs can be advanced through Generative AI (GenAI).

The rapid development of GenAI has introduced innovative opportunities to employ interactive technology to advance the SDGs. However, there are also significant risks posed by interactive technological advancements that need to be adequately managed and mitigated to ensure that equitable outcomes are achieved and that all human rights are protected. 

The networking reception on September 24 will spotlight organizations that are experts in the technology and innovation space, including Alliance members Google, RAIsonance Inc., Reach Digital Health, Simprints, and Viamo, as they showcase inspiring use cases of how GenAI can advance the SDGs, and the opportunities and challenges they may encounter in the process.

Space is limited, but please contact Abbey if you would like further information and are interested in attending. abbey@bayareaglobalhealth.org.
