Going Green While Building Peace: How Can Technology Drive Climate, Conservation, and Peacebuilding Goals?

December 7, 2021 • 11:00 am – 12:00 pm EST

Please join the CSIS Project on Fragility and Mobility for a virtual discussion on Tuesday, December 7, 2021, on the role of technology in addressing climate change and resource-based conflict. From open-source data to earth observation, new technologies provide development practitioners with a means to study and elucidate intertwined environmental and peacebuilding objectives.

The panel will provide insights on how field practitioners can use technology to achieve climate and conservation goals, while also reducing conflict and contributing to building peace. Through identifying tools and perspectives, the event will explore the uses and limits of myriad digital technologies with examples from African drylands and Asian, Latin American, and African forests.

This event is made possible by the generous support of Chemonics International.
