Data for Good
EF 2023-24
Résumé
The United Nations recently proposed 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to
achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. The SDGs include zero poverty
and hunger, good health and well-being, quality education, gender equality and reduced
inequalities, clean water and energy, economic growth, sustainable communities,
climate action, peace, and justice. Dr. Golab's research on Data for Good is finding
unique ways to achieve these goals by harnessing the power of big data. His
data-intensive software tools will transform terabytes of machine and human generated
data into actionable insights for creating a sustainable and inclusive future.
