We are happy to announce the launch of a new innovative initiative to develop an operational Digital Twin system for Smart Farming in collaboration with Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST), @avocat2.0, and Frontier Connect, Philippe Claudon 💻 Tech Entrepreneur 👍 Expert IA 🤖.   Based on the complementary expertise of our consortium, the initiative focuses on integrating space downstream products/services (like SatCOM) with other emerging technologies such as AI and IoT to enhance real-time monitoring and decision-making for sustainable agriculture, particularly in areas where network coverage is unreliable.   This Digital Twin system will be powered by a combination of partner assets and platforms, notably EarthLab’s scalable EO data processing platform, Max-ICS (https://lnkd.in/gif62pT6), and FrontierConnect’s digital agriculture use case platform, Lumbara (https://lnkd.in/gJic3yWy), using multi-tier approaches with in-situ data.     🌱 DT4CMI: Digital Twin for Cocoa Moisture Insights for Africa   The first step of our initiative will focus on the soil moisture level that significantly impacts cocoa production. Inconsistent yields are caused by moisture issues. Resource wastage occurs from overirrigation. There is a lack of actionable insights into soil conditions. Cocoa farming is also dependent on unpredictable weather.   Thanks to funding from ESA’s Kick-start program, a feasibility study has been launched to explore the technical and business potential of this project. The feasibility study will demonstrate the potential of this project to revolutionize cocoa farming. From a technical point of view, the integration of advanced technologies through the Max-ICS & Lumbara platforms ensure reliable and accurate monitoring even in remote areas. From a business point of view, the improved yield and crop health translate into significant economic benefits for farmers and the broader agricultural sector.   #SmartFarming #DigitalTwin #AgricultureInnovation #ESA #CocoaFarming #Sustainability #MaxICS Mohamed BOUKHEBOUZE Grégory Sevrin

The report, "Circular Cities: A Practical Approach to Develop a City Roadmap Focusing on Utilities," developed by Climate-KIC and 2iE - Institut International d'Ingénierie de l'Eau et de l'Environnement, presents a pioneering framework for transitioning #urban areas into sustainable, #circularecosystems. This framework addresses the critical challenges of resource efficiency, utility optimization, and #stakeholder collaboration in cities aiming to achieve long-term environmental and economic resilience. At its core, the report underscores the significance of embedding circularity principles into municipal utility systems, positioning cities as engines of systemic transformation.  Through an in-depth analysis of utility-focused sectors, including energy, water, and waste management, the report highlights the transformative potential of integrating circularity. This approach not only reduces environmental impact but also creates economic opportunities, enhances urban resilience, and promotes inclusivity in decision-making processes. The roadmap detailed within provides cities with actionable strategies to adapt and evolve their utility infrastructures while leveraging data-driven insights and cross-sectoral partnerships.  Moreover, the report emphasizes the importance of localizing global circular economy principles to address the unique socio-economic and environmental contexts of each city. By aligning these principles with technological innovations and public-private collaboration, the study envisions a scalable model for urban circularity that balances economic growth with environmental stewardship.  As urban areas face mounting pressures to deliver sustainable development, this report offers a pragmatic and visionary blueprint for transforming cities into dynamic hubs of circular progress. The message is clear: the path to resilient and future-ready #cities lie in fostering collaboration, investing in innovation, and embracing the principles of circularity. In summary, the transition to circular cities represents both a formidable challenge and a profound opportunity. The report advocates for an integrative approach where utilities serve as the foundation for circular innovation, enabling cities to lead the charge against #climatechange, resource depletion, and socio-economic disparities.

Join me at WSIS+20 Forum High-Level Event 2024 - Session 231 - 30 May 14:00-14:45 - Geneva . With Eunika Mercier-Laurent, as Organizer, Gregory Gruz, Vincent Vuiblet and Anne Dourgnon we will present "Synergy Human-AI for complex problem-solving"!!!!! The World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) is a two-phase United Nations (UN) summit, first introduced by Tunisia in 1998. The summit aims to create an evolving multi-stakeholder platform to address issues raised by information and communication technologies (ICTs) at the national, regional, and international levels. The goal is to build a people-centric, inclusive, and development-oriented Information Society where everyone can create, access, utilize, and share information. The WSIS process has proven to be a well-established and functioning inclusive multistakeholder framework of implementation. The WSIS Forum is an annual multistakeholder event within the WSIS process. It brings together various stakeholders, including governments, civil societies, private sectors, academia, international organizations, and technical communities, to network, partner, and share insights on achieving Sustainable Development Goals through the framework of WSIS Action Lines. The forum is hosted annually by the ITU and co-organized by several UN organizations. The WSIS Forum’s process aligns with that of the SDGs. The forum’s program is collaboratively curated through crowdsourcing, promoting extensive ownership and facilitating continual improvements. The WSIS Forum in 2024, branded as WSIS+20 Forum High-Level Event 2024, will take place on 27-31 May 2024 in Geneva, Switzerland, and will serve as a platform to provide multistakeholder discussions and to take stock of the achievements and key trends, challenges and opportunities since the Geneva Plan of Action in 2003 This event will mark a significant milestone of twenty years of progress made in the implementation of the outcomes of the World Summit on the Information Society, which took place in two phases — Geneva in 2003 and Tunis in 2005. Twenty years ago WSIS set the framework for global digital cooperation with a vision to build people-centric, inclusive, and development-oriented information and knowledge societies. The WSIS+20 Forum High-Level Event 2024 will serve as a platform for multistakeholder discussions with the objective of taking stock of the achievements and key trends, challenges and opportunities since the Geneva Plan of Action in 2003.  The WSIS+20 Forum High-Level Event 2024 is scheduled to be held from 27 to 31 May 2024, co-organized by ITU, UNESCO, UNDP and UNCTAD and co-hosted by ITU and the Swiss Confederation, with the support of remote participation.
