ITU in collaboration with the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) celebrated the UN World Wildlife Day.
The event explored the positive impact of digital technologies for wildlife protection, from the role of satellite images and computer algorithms for monitoring endangered wildlife, the Internet of Things and the Cloud to make poaching predictable and using Apps to combat IWT. Within the context of biodiversity conservation and the use of technology, online platforms such as WILDLEX and TECH4Nature can certainly contribute in bridging the gap to ensure the survival of species.
