How Technology is Reshaping Disaster Response in the Era of Climate Change?
This Insight explores how advanced technology is reshaping natural disaster response efforts, with a focus on developing countries which are disproportionately affected by climate change. It advocates for technological humanitarianism through partnerships involving ICT companies, governments, and NGOs. Core solutions include early warning systems, GIS, satellite imagery, and AI for rapid assessment and resource allocation. Case studies from the 2024 Kenya floods and 2023 Libya floods demonstrate the operational value of integrated technology. Key challenges include the digital divide, infrastructure failures, and ethical concerns over data use. The Insight recommends investments in resilient infrastructure, improving local capacity, and deploying inclusive technology.
