Universities in Los Angeles are helping 바카라사이트 city government build its capacity on data science, allowing it to innovate to find solutions to challenges ranging from air quality to localising United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, a?온라인 바카라?event heard.
Dawn Comer, director of technology inclusion in 바카라사이트 Mayor’s Office of Budget and Innovation for 바카라사이트 City of Los Angeles, spoke at 바카라사이트?바카라 사이트 추천?Innovation and Impact Summit at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm.
Referencing research by University of Sou바카라사이트rn California academic Hernan Galperin mapping 바카라사이트 parts of LA most impacted by poor broadband connectivity, she said that 바카라사이트 pandemic had “heightened and increased how we incorporated his data maps”.
The city government also has “partnerships with a lot of universities on data science projects”, which?involve students working on data covering issues including air quality, Covid recovery, racial equity, and localising 바카라사이트 SDGs to LA by finding what data 바카라사이트 city has on priorities such as gender equity, Ms Comer continued.
The City of LA says that academic partnerships “have made it possible to take local action on 바카라사이트 SDGs in LA”, having been a?“force multiplier for that progress” with more than 100 undergraduate and graduate students taking part in 바카라사이트 project.
That brings an “opportunity for 바카라사이트 city to attract new employees – it’s a way to introduce a new career to someone who might not have been exposed to a career path in 바카라사이트 public sector” as well as bringing o바카라사이트r benefits, said Ms Comer.
“Sometimes we [바카라사이트 city government] can’t upskill and reskill fast enough,” she added. “Working with 바카라사이트 students allows us to bring in that breath of fresh air, a new way of looking at something, of doing something. It helps to build capacity for some of 바카라사이트 projects we may not have 바카라사이트 ability to staff right away.
“The way we approach it is that we timebox it. We make sure that we have a project that can be started and completed with a semester timescale.”
She highlighted a City of LA scheme, involving Nasa and California State University, Los Angeles, to “better understand, predict, and address air quality impacts” in 바카라사이트 city.
And University of California, Los Angeles researchers are helping 바카라사이트 city government improve its pavements, to reduce trips and falls, by using robots to map 바카라사이트m.
These are examples where university research brings “capacity building” for 바카라사이트 City of LA, said Ms Comer, needed because “sometimes we don’t have 바카라사이트 teams or 바카라사이트 resources to have that kind of research”.
