The Jameel Observatory
•
William Grant Foundation
Featuring Gary Watmough, Alan Duncan and Guyo Roba
The Jameel Observatory combines the local knowledge and concerns of communities facing the threat of hunger with innovations in data science and humanitarian action. The food insecurity of tomorrow can be tackled today by early actions that increase the resilience and adaptive capacities of people living in harsh climates like the African drylands.
The Data Driven Innovation initiative is supporting hundreds of collaborations and organisations across Edinburgh and the south-east of Scotland. For more information follow their page on LinkedIn, find @datacapitaled on X (formerly Twitter) or go to the website ddi.ac.uk.
