181 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book explores how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be adapted to address the unique development challenges of small island nations. It offers practical, context-sensitive strategies and real-world applications designed for regions such as the Maldives, where geographic isolation, limited infrastructure, and climate vulnerability present complex hurdles to sustainable development. Focusing on the intersection of AI, sustainability, and digital inclusion, this book examines how AI technologies can be leveraged in key sectors such as infrastructure resilience, cybersecurity, education, health care, smart cities, and legal systems. It highlights how AI can empower island nations to overcome resource constraints, language barriers, and geographical remoteness—factors often neglected in mainstream AI discourse. Each chapter combines conceptual foundations with case studies that illustrate AI's potential when aligned with local needs, values, and capacities. This book serves as a valuable resource for researchers, educators, engineers, digital policy experts, development professionals, and decision-makers interested in sustainable and inclusive technology solutions for emerging and vulnerable regions.
