SUMMARY:University Lecture: Knowledge stewardship in an age of disruption
DESCRIPTION:Masud Khokhar will be speaking at Carnegie Mellon University as part of the Gloriana St. Clair Distinguished Lecture in 21st Century Librarianship\, named in honor of the CMU dean of libraries emerita. Gloriana St. Clair led the transformation of Carnegie Mellon Libraries into the 21st century\, supporting and serving both CMU students and our research community. \nMasud Khokhar is the Chief Digital and Information Officer at the University of Leeds. \nAbout the lecture: In an era defined by geopolitical tensions\, rapid advances in generative artificial intelligence\, and an urgent global imperative to meet the Sustainable Development Goals\, libraries find themselves at a pivotal moment. As traditional repositories of information evolve into dynamic catalysts for change\, the role of Knowledge Stewardship has never been more critical. Libraries are ideally placed to reclaim authority over the full life cycle of knowledge\, from its generation and curation to its long-term preservation\, and embrace a proactive\, innovation-driven mindset. This renewed vision requires a bold shift: a commitment to creativity\, capacity-building\, and a culture of positive disruption. Libraries must embrace a more active role in the knowledge ecosystem – developing skills\, infrastructure\, and approaches to influence the knowledge agenda locally and globally. This talk calls on libraries and information professionals to move beyond custodianship and toward leadership\, ensuring that knowledge remains a tool for equity\, justice\, and sustainable future. \nPlease RSVP if you plan to attend.

SUMMARY:Reboot the Earth Doha
DESCRIPTION:Reboot The Earth is a social coding event that brings young computer programmers\, administrators\, architects\, those familiar with the Salesforce ecosystem\, scientists and other interested people together to improve upon or build technology that addresses the current climate crisis. This year’s focus will be on Agriculture and AI\, and will take place around the globe in the months of April to October 2025. Each location will be presented with specific UN selected challenges that focus on local climate issues. \nReboot the Earth is co-hosted by the United Nations and CMU Qatar including OICT\, FAO\, Carnegie Mellon\, Salesforce\, and DPGA. \nAt Reboot the Earth Doha\, taking place October 2–4\, the organizing partners will collaborate with students\, climate experts\, and the broader open-source community. \nOver the course of two days\, innovators will be presented with a series of tech challenges\, for which they will use open data\, AI\, Salesforce tools\, and tech concepts to build a digital public good. Each solution should aim to solve a local climate crisis unique to their community needs\, and be available to others – improving or building upon open source programs that can be used by anyone globally to address the climate crisis.  \nParticipants will benefit from dedicated support from mentors and partners\, aimed at refining and enhancing their prototypes. The event will end with an award ceremony on the final day\, recognizing and celebrating the achievements of the participants. \nRegister for Reboot the Earth. \nFor more information\, please visit: https://unite.un.org/en/reboot-earth
