The Deputy Director General of GAEC, Prof. Francis Hasford, and Research Scientists from GSSTI-GAEC and RAMSRI-GAEC will serve as distinguished speakers at the “AI for Sustainable Development” programme in Kumasi.
Under the sponsorship of the French government, the programme is slated to take place, from 17–19 February.
As seasoned academics and researchers, Prof. Hasford and his team will bring unparalleled expertise in radiation medicine and space technology as well as other scientific innovations to bear at the conference.
Through the Ghana Space Science and Technology Institute (GSSTI), the Radiological and Medical Sciences Research Institute (RAMSRI) and other Research Institutes of the Commission, GAEC continues to advance the application of artificial intelligence in agriculture, health, water resources management, environment protection, industry, among others. These efforts are strengthening Ghana’s capacity to use nuclear science, spacebased technologies and AI to address challenges in achieving the sustainable development goals (SDGs).
GAEC’s contributions at the event will highlight how the Commission’s scientific leadership, especially through GSSTI, RAMSRI and the other Institutes is helping drive AIpowered solutions that support national development and longterm sustainability for Ghana and the subregion.
