About

This pre-event webinar is part of the preparatory process for the joint NDMA–UNDRR side event at the India AI Global Summit. It is designed to surface practical experiences, challenges, and lessons on how AI and related technologies are being adopted for disaster risk reduction, with a particular focus on early warning systems, extreme heat risk, and institutional readiness. The discussion will help shape the framing, themes, and priority questions for the in-person Summit session, ensuring that high-level dialogue is grounded in real operational realities and practitioner insights.

Objectives

• Share practical lessons on how governments are using AI and related technologies for disaster risk reduction, including what enables or constrains adoption in real institutional settings.
• Examine key thematic applications (such as early warning systems and extreme heat risk) to understand where AI is adding value today and where gaps remain.
• Inform and shape the in-person dialogue at the India AI Global Summit by capturing practitioner insights, priorities, and questions for deeper discussion.
