Understanding Harrow Residents Food Waste Reduction Barriers
Funder: Brunel University London

This project aims to conduct preliminary research to understand why 35-40% of the black bag waste (known as residual waste) in Harrow Council contains food waste in the presence of a separate food waste collection scheme and promotion of food waste reduction initiatives nationwide. This is important to helping Harrow Council improve its sustainability, and promote maximisation of multi-dimensional (i.e. environmental, economic, social and technical) value recovery from waste

AI and Connecting Generations: Effects at Individual, Organisational and Societal Levels
Funder: Brunel University London
Duration: October 2020 - July 2021

Artificial intelligence is transforming the types of paid work in the economy, how manufacturing is conducted and cities are planned, business operations and strategy, methods of governing and the law. Researchers at the Centre for AI at Brunel University are actively researching and publishing in these areas of immense societal importance. The proposed seminar series aims to draw on the centre’s expertise. One objective is to build research capacity through the opportunities for Brunel academics to intellectually engage with leaders in the field and thus enhance their networks. Collaboration with some of the speakers will provide opportunities for co-authored publications. Beyond the technical changes in the field of computing, we plan to show in the seminar series how the implementation of AI has wider individual, organisational and societal effects. Interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary approaches are essential to this endeavour. Thus, a further objective of the seminar series is to break down the artificial boundaries between disciplines, bringing a radical innovation we already know to be productive, to gain a richer understanding of how AI is transforming society and our lives.
