Listen to the recording of the great panel at the Geneva Peace Week meets New York Event at IPI with inter alia Anne-Marie Buzatu Buzatu, Executive Director, ICT4peace on:
“Harnessing Technologies to Build a Better Future”
New technologies, like social media, which were meant to bring the world closer together, are being weaponized to further create divisions and sow distrust. But new technologies and fresh ideas can and should be brought to the peacebuilding sector to counter the harmful effects of many of these new technologies. How can the risks linked to new technologies, including AI, be better regulated? And how can these new tools be regulated for good in peacebuilding and sustaining peace? What are the implications of different technologies on the future of peacebuilding?
Speakers:
Maria Victoria (Mavic) Cabrera Balleza, CEO of Global Network of Women Peacebuilders
Anne-Marie Buzatu Buzatu, Executive Director, Information and Communication Technology for Peace (ICT4Peace.org)
Howard Wachtel, Senior Director and Head of Policy, UN and International Organizations at Microsoft
