    SDG 14: Life Below Water

                                             We all know that healthy oceans support climate change mitigation and
                                             adaptation efforts. SDG targets to prevent and reduce marine pollution,
                                             protect  marine and coastal  ecosystems,  regulate  harvesting and end
                                             destructive fishing practices, etc. Our oceans are vast and cover more than
                                             70% of the earth’s surface.

                      This makes tracking and measuring life under water a massive task. Satellite imagery and analysis
                      of a boat’s movements with a specially designed form of machine learning makes it possible to
                      determine the area of illegal fishing or seafaring vessels.

                      SDG 15: Life on Land
                      This aims  at protecting,  restoring  and  promoting  the  sustainable  use  of
                      terrestrial ecosystems, managing forests, fighting deforestation, reversing

                      land degradation and stopping biodiversity loss. In future, AI methods may
                      be used to create a digital dashboard for the planet, to help us monitor,
                      model, foresee and manage environmental systems on a global scale.

                                             SDG 16: Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions
                                             This  aims  to  guarantee  justice  and  freedom  for  all people  by  2030.  The
                                             target is to significantly reduce all forms of violence with communities and
                                             governments to end conflict and insecurity.

                      SDG 17: Partnership for the Goals

                      To be successful in achieving goals as large as SDGs, it is very much

                      required to have partnerships between the stakeholders like government,
                      the private sector and civil society. The sharing has to be of knowledge,
                      expertise, technology and financial resources to support and achieve
                      sustainable development goals in all the countries. AI can be a vital tool
                      for the global community to achieve the targets of the United Nations
                      Sustainable Development Goals. Asia and the Middle East have already
                      instigated to focus on AI as a part of their development strategy and
                      economic growth.
