Water is essential for life, yet billions of people worldwide still lack access to clean water and proper sanitation. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is emerging as a powerful tool in addressing these challenges by optimising water resource management, enhancing sanitation systems, and driving sustainable solutions for communities in need.
This course, aligned with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6, explores how AI can be leveraged to ensure the availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all. Through practical applications, ethical considerations, and real-world case studies, learners will gain insights into how AI is transforming water security and sanitation infrastructure.
Whether you are a water resource manager, policymaker, environmental researcher, social entrepreneur, or sustainability advocate, this course will equip you with the knowledge and skills to harness AI for creating scalable, data-driven water and sanitation solutions.
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
- Analyse how AI can optimise water resource management and improve sanitation systems.
- Apply AI-driven tools to monitor, predict, and address water scarcity and quality issues.
- Evaluate real-world case studies of AI-powered solutions in water conservation and sanitation infrastructure.
- Develop ethical AI strategies that promote equitable access to clean water and sustainable sanitation practices.
- Assess the role of AI in shaping policies and community-led initiatives for responsible water management.
