Our doctoral student Richárd Schneider, as part of his research, which concerns among others the opportunities and risks associated with artificial intelligence during United Nations’ post-conflict missions, conducted field work in Kampala, the capital of Uganda between 03.24. and 04.05. Due to diplomatic assistance, he was given the opportunity to visit the local headquarters of the UN (Pulse Lab Kampala) and made an expert interview with its representatives regarding their AI-powered programs developed for preventive and monitoring purposes.
He also built professional relations at Makerere University when having discussions with the Dean and the Head of Department of the School of Social Sciences.
All his field experiences will be published in a scientific article co-authored by his supervisor, the head of the Africa Research Institute and former MINURSO peacekeeper János Besenyő, and published by Springer.
