6.   Clean Water and Sanitation aims to ensure the availability of water for
                     everyone and promote sustainable water management. AI supports this goal
                     by forecasting water demand, detecting contamination, and optimising how
                     water resources are allocated. These efforts help provide clean water access

                     while managing water use responsibly for the future.
                     Example: A farmer struggles with overwatering crops. AI tools monitor soil moisture and
                     weather to advise when to water, saving water and protecting plants.

                              7.   Affordable and Clean Energy aims to ensure access to affordable, reliable,
                                  sustainable,  and  modern  energy.  AI  contributes  by  improving  energy  grid

                                  efficiency,  forecasting  demand,  and  supporting  renewable  energy  systems.
                                  These efforts help deliver cleaner and more dependable energy to communities
                                  while reducing environmental impact.
                                  Example: A solar energy farm uses AI to forecast sunlight availability and

                                  manage battery storage. This ensures that even during cloudy days or at night,
                                  the community has access to clean and consistent energy.

                 8.   Decent  Work  and  Economic  Growth aims to promote sustainable and
                     inclusive economic growth along with decent employment opportunities for
                     all. AI supports this goal by enhancing productivity, fostering entrepreneurship,
                     and improving economic forecasting. While AI automates some jobs, it also
                     creates new opportunities and helps economies grow responsibly.

                     Example: A young entrepreneur uses AI tools to study market trends and customer preferences.
                     This helps them start a successful business that creates new jobs for local people.
                              9.  Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure aims to develop resilient

                                  infrastructure and encourage sustainable industrialisation. AI supports this
                                  goal by enhancing smart manufacturing processes, enabling continuous
                                  infrastructure monitoring, and accelerating research and development. These
                                  technologies help build stronger industries and infrastructure that are efficient,
                                  sustainable, and adaptable to future challenges.
                                  Example: A manufacturing plant implements AI-powered sensors to monitor

                                  machinery health in real time. This early warning system reduces unexpected
                                  breakdowns, increases efficiency, and lowers maintenance costs.
                 10.  Reduced Inequalities aims to reduce inequality both within and among

                     countries. AI supports this goal by analysing data to identify inequality trends
                     and helping design inclusive policies. These efforts enable fairer access to
                     resources and opportunities for all people.

                     Example:  An NGO monitors healthcare access with AI, making sure people in remote
                     villages receive the same care as those in cities.
