On June 15, at this unique in-person A2I event on current challenges in water sector research, Dr. Syed Imran Ali shared the Dahdaleh Institute’s experience with translating engineering and health research into practitioner-facing tools that help advance public health engineering practice. His presentation highlighted the innovative Safe Water Optimization Tool, which uses machine learning to ensure water safety and enhance public health in humanitarian emergencies.

The A2I event is hosted by the Lassonde School of Engineering to advance collaborations among water professionals at the university with industry, municipalities, government, and NGOs. The event provided a platform for exploring new tools in water research, new partnerships, technology commercialization, first-hand knowledge transfer on water, and the exchange of ideas toward clean water technologies to support the SDGs.
