Aims and Scope

United Nation (UN) has defined a number of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), all related to global challenges. Research on these multi-disciplinary and multi-sector challenges are of significant value and importance. The 8th International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for Disaster Management (AIDM-2025) is dedicated to the critical infrastructures, secure societies and sustainability challenges and in particular, to the dissemination of completed or works in progress that are original contributions and related to the emerging computational and collaborative technologies for the purpose of managing natural and man-made disasters and technological accidents. There are various advanced and emerging computational paradigms that could be applied as a means to mitigate and prepare for, respond to and recover from continuously growing occurrences of such disasters. Stakeholders in disaster management settings often find the effective and efficient utilization of supporting technologies quite a challenging process but very frequently a critical computational inclusion to the intelligence that it is required in the decision-making for protecting lives, organizations, property, environment and critical infrastructures. AIDM-2025 aims to prompt relevant discussion and highlight issues related to the stakeholders’ needs and the available technologies, which could be applied to support the operation and functioning during the aforementioned stages. 

AIDM-2025 will highlight both technical and less technical challenges. Softer issues are less technical and relate to various stakeholders’ perspectives including technology acceptance, civil protection, fire and rescue services, ambulance and health services, humanitarian bodies and, technical infrastructure managers and administrators. AIDM-2025 aims also to discuss technical issues and specifically, advanced ICTs which could further stakeholders’ operations. Thus, advances of applicable technologies including data science, data analytics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) could be used to capture, store and analyze data from smart spaces need to be discussed.  The scope of AIDM-2025 is to demonstrate the increased applicability and impact of computational intelligence in satisfying the disaster’s management domain challenging requirements. Finally, AIDM-2010 aims to provide a forum for original discussion and prompt future directions in the emerging area.
