Team ITU participated in the World Economic Forum in Davos, emphasizing global cooperation, responsible AI development, and the future of digital skills. Secretary-General Doreen Bogdan-Martin highlighted the urgent need to bridge technology divides, build trust, and ensure emerging technologies are developed safely and responsibly, putting people at the center.

ITU experts launched major AI for Good reports, advanced AI standards for areas like deepfake mitigation and health, and showcased initiatives like the AI & Robotics Youth Training Program in Africa. They also championed AI literacy and lifelong learning through the AI Skills Coalition. ITU’s presence underscored the importance of inclusion, cooperation, and responsible innovation to ensure technology benefits everyone, everywhere.

Concrete production, responsible for 8% of global CO2 emissions, typically lasts 50-100 years. Extending its durability to 200 years or more would significantly reduce the 4 billion tons of CO2

Concrete production, responsible for 8% of global CO2 emissions, typically lasts 50-100 years. Extending its durability to 200 years or more would significantly reduce the 4 billion tons of CO2 produced annually by its manufacture.

Our guest, Martin Halliwell, holds over 10 patents for "Earth honoring systems" designed to lower CO2 emissions in construction. His innovations include more durable concrete and integrated geothermal and windmill installations.
