3457: GITEX Global: The UN World Food Programme's AI Driven Fight Against Hunger

What if artificial intelligence could help end world hunger? In this special episode recorded live from GITEX Global in Dubai, I sit down with Magan Naidoo, Chief Data Officer at the United Nations World Food Programme, to discuss how data and AI are transforming humanitarian work at scale.

Magan paints a powerful picture of the global food security crisis, where hundreds of millions of people face hunger across more than 80 countries. He explains how the World Food Programme is using technology to predict food shortages, optimise supply chains, and deliver aid faster and more effectively. Behind every algorithm sits a simple goal: getting food to those who need it, when they need it most.

We explore how AI models are helping the organisation make sense of enormous datasets, identifying patterns that humans alone could not process quickly enough. From predicting drought-related crop failures to reducing the cost of food delivery through smarter routing, Magan reveals how data-driven decisions are saving both time and lives. He also shares the organisation's commitment to ethical AI, strong data governance, and privacy protection in every region they operate.

As the only UN agency with a formal AI strategy, the World Food Programme is setting a benchmark for how large-scale institutions can use technology responsibly and effectively. Magan's story highlights the importance of trust, collaboration, and resilience in a mission where failure is not an option.

Could AI truly be the key to solving one of humanity's oldest challenges? And what lessons can every organisation learn from how the World Food Programme blends compassion with computation? Tune in, then share your thoughts.
