United Nations/Nigeria Workshop on the International Space Weather Initiative: 

Space Weather During a Moderate Solar Cycle #25

Introduction
Space weather is an inherently international matter. Solar and magnetic storms affect large regions of the Earth simultaneously and equatorial ionospheric disturbances occur routinely around the world. It is therefore appropriate for the United Nations to promote improvements in space weather modelling and forecasting for the benefit of all nations.

Mapping Disaster Resilience

Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI) — the convergence of satellite-derived data with modern machine-learning techniques—has become a decisive factor in global disaster-risk governance. In little more than five years, the active Earth-observation satellite fleet has tripled, and open-weight vision models now convert petabytes of imagery into decision-ready layers in minutes.
