SDG-ENGAGED UNIVERSITY

One UWI Research Clusters

The School for Graduate Studies and Research has been a driving force in promoting cross-campus collaboration through the formation and support of the One UWI Research Clusters. These clusters, a significant step towards interdisciplinary collaboration, were launched through a series of online events. The first three clusters, “Indigenous Studies”, “Generative AI for Good Research”, and “Gender and Development Studies”, were introduced on March 26, April 5, and April 16, 2024, respectively. The flagship event for the Generative AI for Good Research Cluster was the “Artificial Intelligence Conference in the Caribbean: Reimagining the Digital Transformation of the Caribbean in an Age of Generative AI and the 5th Industrial Revolution”, July 8–10, 2024, hosted by the Five Islands Campus in Antigua and Barbuda. The SGSR provided general administrative support for the conference chairs, the planning committee, and sub-committees on sponsorship, marketing, and event coordination for conference execution.
