In the field of agriculture, farmers can be empowered with services such as AI-assisted crop advisory, financial inclusion, and utilisation of geospatial analytics to improve food security.
The challenge also seeks assistive technology for learning disabilities, which can enable early detection and support for specific learning disabilities, with enhanced multimedia accessibility tools and gamified learning.
Participants can develop innovation for climate change and disaster management with AI-driven early warning systems and multi-hazard susceptibility mapping.
