🌊 In the Pacific, rising seas are already threatening water, food and livelihoods, yet the knowledge and solutions Pacific communities have developed are not reaching decision-makers. At the UN #STIForum, we are bringing Pacific voices into the spaces where global decisions are made.

Cooperation is key to ensuring #AI serves people - not replaces them. At #STIForum, @ilo.org, @ITU, @Microsoft & @Portugal_UN reaffirm the power of working together to shape #AI that protects rights, boosts #workplacesafety, & drives #inclusivegrowth. #AIforGood #SocialJustice #SDG8

From smart sensors to algorithmic safety tools, #AI is reshaping labour protections. But without governance, risks rise. At #STIForum, @ilo.org and partners spotlight how tripartite action can align AI innovation with #socialjustice and #decentwork. #FutureOfWork

Where science meets diplomacy, solutions scale.

The commitment of universities - as institutions - to partner with the UN can be a game-changer for the science-policy interface.

Best practices from the ETH-UN partnership in catalyzing action for the #SDGs. #STIForum
