The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Digital health technologies hold promise of greening healthcare by reducing visits to hospitals, encouraging prevention, and optimising processes and health pathways. At the same time, the environmental costs of AI and digital infrastructures have increasingly been highlighted by media and academic research. During this 2-hour session we would like to address questions such as:
· What does climate justice mean in the context of digital health?
· How to understand the severity of these costs and weigh them against the expected health and environmental benefits of digital technologies?
· Who will get the benefits and who will bear these costs?
· How to ensure that these costs and benefits are fairly distributed across groups and populations?
This panel discussion is organised by the Oxford Sustainable and Trustworthy AI in Health and Care Network (OxSTAI) and the Digital Hub at Jesus College as part of the programme of the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Summit.
This event will take place in the Cheng Kar Shun Digital Hub at Jesus College, Oxford. The Hub entrance is on Market Street (opposite Wagamama). The Hub is accessible, with automatic double doors at the entrance and lifts to and from the main lower ground floor event space.
