We are delighted to organize and host a 4-day Intensive Training on Applied AI & Data Science for Environmental Sustainability as part of our UKRI funded S2Cool project. This workshop is more than a learning exercise; it aims to build high-velocity AI pipelines that address critical climate and urban cooling challenges.

Over the course of 4 days, our participants will be working under the guidance of our experienced trainers to bridge the gap between research and deployment:

🎓 Dr. Muhammad Moazam Fraz – Building LLM-powered RAG assistants for climate reporting.
🎓 Dr. Nazia Pervaiz – Leveraging Computer Vision and Remote Sensing for heat-risk monitoring.
🎓 Dr. Fahad Satti – Implementing MLOps & LLOps strategies for production-grade AI.
🎓 Ms. Sahar Arshad – Mastering Clean Code and Modular AI Software Engineering.

The Objective: The "CoolSmart Intelligence Platform" ❄️

The training culminates in a capstone project that integrates satellite data with Generative AI to identify urban heat-risk zones and generate evidence-grounded interventions, ensuring that cooling solutions are data-driven and scalable.

A Global Collaborative Effort 🤝

This initiative is a testament to the international academic partnerships between:

⭐ UKRI (UK Research and Innovation)
⭐ Northumbria University
⭐ NUST SEECS

Together, we are equipping researchers and engineers with the skills to turn "Drones into Decisions" and data into climate action.
