Abstract
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2021 IEEE Global Humanitarian Technology Conference (GHTC). GHTC has become a flagship annual venue for academics, for-profit and non-profit businesses, and governmental and nongovernmental organizations to identify the present and future humanitarian needs and present their work to create influential, novel, and accessible humanitarian technologies. GHTC is an excellent opportunity to network, share, learn, and establish collaborations to build innovative and accessible humanitarian technologies. The Technical Program Committee has prepared an excellent program to cover a wide range of topics related to humanitarian needs and technologies. These sessions include topics such as Medical Technologies, Role of Web-based Services and Social Media Channels During Global Pandemics, Supporting Stakeholder Engagement in Healthcare Applications, Data Transmission and Communication during Disasters, Off-grid Electrification, Sustainable Grid Technologies, Human-centered Design of Energy Applications, Energy Conversion and Storage for Humanitarian Applications, Technology Adoption in Agriculture, Online Service Learning, Professional Preparation of Social Entrepreneurs. We will have multiple plenary panels on topics related to technologies for healthy aging, sustainable development, and the impact of social media on public health. We also host multiple plenary talks that highlight practical development approaches and present directions to develop technologies for the benefit of humanity.
