THEME
AI for Humanity: Leveraging Indian Knowledge Systems to Accelerate Sustainable Development Goals
ABOUT THE THEME
The theme AI for Humanity: Leveraging Indian Knowledge Systems to Accelerate Sustainable Development Goals envisions a transformative dialogue between cuttingedge artificial intelligence and the timeless wisdom embedded in India's intellectual traditions. Rooted in holistic principles such as Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (the world asone family), harmony with nature, ethical responsibility, and community-centred living, Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) offer sustainable models in health, Agriculture, education, governance, and environmental stewardship. By integrating AI-driven
analytics, predictive modelling, and digital innovation with traditional practices like Ayurveda, indigenous agricultural methods, and value-based education, this conference seeks to explore inclusive and culturally grounded solutions for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The theme emphasises that technological advancement must align with human values, social equity, and ecological balance. It
calls upon scholars, policymakers, technologists, and educators to collaboratively design AI systems that are ethical, sustainable, and rooted in indigenous knowledge, thereby accelerating progress toward a resilient, equitable, and sustainable global future.
