The AI Collective X CRC | Exploring Climate Action Through Data and AI
🌱 AI x Data x Climate: A Community-Centered Conversation
Hosted by The AI Collective in collaboration with Community Resilience to Climate Change (CRC)
Join us for an inspiring evening exploring how AI and data can support community resilience, climate justice, and local action in the face of our changing climate.
As part of The AI Collective, I’ll be facilitating a dynamic event in partnership with CRC, an organization deeply committed to helping communities bounce forward from environmental, social, and economic challenges.
This event brings together tech thinkers, community leaders, youth voices, and climate advocates to connect, learn, and imagine the future of climate resilience—powered by people, knowledge, and responsible technology.
🔍 What to Expect:
Together with CRC founders Helena and Kate, we’ll dive into real-world applications of tech and data for communities on the frontlines of climate impact.
Breakout Topics Include:
Heat Stress & AI: Predicting and responding to extreme heat using AI
Climate Anxiety & AI: Detecting and addressing climate-related mental health through NLP/LLMs
Climate Education & AI: Building climate literacy through tools like multilingual climate chatbots
Equity & AI: How to empower communities to use AI—not just be studied by it
CRC will also share their work supporting youth, equity-deserving communities, and frontline organizers with:
