Big Ideas Into Action #42: Water Peace and Security Quarterly Update 1

World Resources Institute Podcasts Plus

Is it possible to predict conflict? That's what the Water, Peace and Security Partnership's machine learning early warning tool sets out to do. Four times a year the predictions are analyzed and turned into a quarterly report. We'll be doing a short podcast about the headline story from each quarterly report - this time the focus is on the Horn of Africa, especially Ethiopia, Somalia and northern Kenya, and the interviewee was WRI's Charlie Iceland. You can read the quarterly report in more depth at www.waterpeacesecurity.org, and follow the Partnership on Twitter, @waterpeacesec. WRI is one of the Water, Peace and Security partners.
