It was a fantastic Panel session and presentation at the UNDRR summit on disaster risk reduction in Namibia. I truly believe with data and African grown solutions we can prevent, prepare and respond better to save human lives. Key takeaways: Data is key Humans are first mile not last mile Proactive policies are super important Proactive preparedness is key Predictive intelligence and real-time monitoring can save lives and protect our infrastructure. We must use the power of AI. Mekailah Stephens thanks for driving the private sector initiative and super excited for the Arise Africa network.
