  1. 🚨 AI is entering the fight against malaria.

    MalarAI combines geospatial modelling, mobility analytics, climate data, and epidemiology to track how malaria spreads across populations.

    🌍 Starting in Zanzibar, the project aims to identify transmission hotspots in near real time and support precision-targeted malaria elimination strategies.

  5. 🌍 Data to stories that matter.

    WorldPop’s high-resolution population data supported a New York Times investigation into sea level rise risks from Thwaites Glacier.

    📊 4.7M more people at risk in Shanghai
    📊 Up to 7M in Bangkok

    From Lagos to New Orleans, our data helps show who is at risk - and where.

  15. 💉 Where are children missing measles vaccines — and when?

    🌍 A new high-resolution mapping approach reveals local vaccination gaps in Côte d’Ivoire, showing that many children receive the measles vaccine later than recommended.

    By identifying gaps by both age and location, health workers can better target routine immunisation and catch-up campaigns.

  16. À la soirée #DataForGood où passent les associations qui ont fait des projets basées sur de la data. Par exemple #Bloom et #QuotaClimat ou #Utopia56 pour faire plus quantifié, plus mesurable, plus efficace. C’est vraiment très chouette !

  17. 🐾 Over 2 million dogs were adopted in both 2023 and 2024.
    Even with fewer entering shelters, shelters kept up the effort.

    July 4 is tough on pets.

    Fireworks cause stress, escapes, and shelter surges.

    ❤️ This week:
    • Bring pets indoors
    • Check tags + microchips

    🐶 Thinking of adopting?
    Adopt, don’t shop.
