Delta 8.7 Article: A COVID-19 Response to Modern Slavery


I recently contributed to a second Delta 8.7 article which noted how space technologies from satellite sensors could be used as part of a strategy to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on those subjected to modern slavery, and the subsequent changes to the environment. This formed part of a wider article which addresses the inclusion of technological innovations including Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning to investigate modern slavery globally. 

The post entitled 'A COVID-19 Response to Modern Slavery using AI Research' was published on the Delta 8.7 platform on 26 June 2020.
