Joey Wu's personal experience with water scarcity in Taiwan ignited his passion for clean water access. Later, as an undergraduate, he designed a PFAS water filter. However, he learned that technical solutions alone are insufficient; they require community trust and socio-cultural buy-in for effective adoption.

In 2022, Wu launched Waterroots, a youth-led climate literacy initiative. It empowers young leaders in water-stressed regions to bridge the gap between technical solutions and community needs, inspiring locally-driven action. Waterroots has grown into a digital community with over 50 members across 25 countries, sharing their water stories through platforms like YouTube. Wu mentors these leaders, fostering global conversations on our shared planetary future.

Yuki Qian, 17, addresses Pittsburgh's high radon levels, a radioactive gas causing 21,000 U.S. deaths annually. Her family's financial struggles with home health renovations inspire her to use technology and knowledge to overcome socioeconomic barriers, aiding vulnerable communities.

In 2023, supported by Pittsburgh Phipps Conservatory, Qian founded RadONRadOFF. This project distributes free radon test kits, low-cost remediation info, and safety education to local, lower-income areas. Partnering with state authorities, mitigation companies, and YMCAs, she also advocates for policies to close public health disparity gaps.

From Cesar Chavez banning DDT to truckers tackling asthma at the Port of Los Angeles and inner-city clergy fighting Walmart sprawl, diverse groups champion environmental and social

From Cesar Chavez banning DDT to truckers tackling asthma at the Port of Los Angeles and inner-city clergy fighting Walmart sprawl, diverse groups champion environmental and social justice.

Dr. Manuel Pastor's research highlights how low-income urban communities drive change. He demonstrates that a truly sustainable economy requires everyone to be an environmentalist, emphasizing that a healthy environment is intrinsically linked to economic justice.

The space ecosystem is undergoing a profound transformation, with public and private sectors driving novel activities like enhanced broadband, Earth monitoring, and lunar exploration. This acceleration reflects a growing global reliance on space.

To ensure a promising and sustainable future, collective effort is crucial for the sensible use of space resources.

A forthcoming Forum will convene top leaders and experts from space and telecom industries, governments, and other stakeholders. It will discuss policies and strategies to ensure space remains accessible and sustainable for all future endeavors. Discover more about the program on the official ITU website: ITU Space Sustainability Forum.

The global youth population, currently 1.2 billion (40% under 25), is projected to grow by over 78 million by 2030, with low-income countries accounting for half this increase. Investing in this

The global youth population, currently 1.2 billion (40% under 25), is projected to grow by over 78 million by 2030, with low-income countries accounting for half this increase. Investing in this global asset and safeguarding their interests is crucial for social and economic stability, requiring education and training systems to adapt.

High-quality apprenticeships, internships, and volunteering programs offer vital entry points for young jobseekers. Jean Mary Tjiohimba from South Africa's Khwe community shares insights into the successes and challenges faced by youth in her region.

ML models in mobile apps pose computational and energy challenges. Distributed ML addresses this by distributing loads across network nodes, enabling edge ML and improving privacy.

Yet, distributed ML faces hurdles: slower execution from limited node capabilities and high bandwidth consumption for data transfer. This creates a paradox, as it aims for low latency and reduced cloud bandwidth. Carla Fabiana Chiasserini will discuss this paradox and its resolution using dynamic ML structures and compression.
