    As climate change, population growth, and urbanization intensify natural hazards, AI is emerging as a game changer for global disaster resilience. Yet turning cutting edge research into trusted, scalable, real world tools remains a major hurdle. This workshop dives straight into that challenge, showing how scientific innovation, technology development, and international standardization can finally close the gap.
    Participants will explore how AI breakthroughs in hazard monitoring, forecasting, hydrology, and emergency response can be translated into operational systems that governments and responders can actually use. Key questions drive the conversation: How do we move research into implementation? How do standards unlock trust, interoperability, and adoption across borders? And how do we bring researchers, developers, policymakers, and end users into true collaboration?
    Featuring global case studies and work from the Global Initiative on Resilience to Natural Hazards through AI Solutions, the session highlights why aligned science, innovation, and standards are essential for building AI systems that are not only advanced—but usable, reliable, and ready for real world impact.
