EPICS in IEEE will present and exhibit at the International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC) in Bari, Italy, from November 27 to 30.
The IEEE International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IEEE IHTC) is an interdisciplinary conference series organized by IEEE Region 8 (Africa, Europe, and the Middle East), IEEE Region 7 (Canada), and IEEE Region 9 (Latin America and the Caribbean). The IHTC focuses on showcasing challenges, success stories, lessons learned, case studies, and technological innovation related to achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), ICT4D, and the application of Humanitarian Technologies.
In addition to an exhibit table at the conference, the EPICS in IEEE team will be involved in the presentations and panel discussions below.
