The Anticipatory Action and Innovation research pillar offers solutions that help the UN become a more future-oriented organization, prepared for emerging challenges and capable of innovating to meet them. This work involves guidance in the use of predictive analytics, identifying new trends that may affect the work of the multilateral system and offering innovative solutions based on adaptation, mitigation and resilience.
The pillar also explores the ethics, policy and global governance of Artificial Intelligence – advancing proposals to support an open, free, secure and human-centred digital future that works for all. Driving this work is a commitment to ensuring that the benefits of the digital age are not captured by a few at the expense of the public interest.
