Are you sure? I thought that you HATE all that talk about sustainability!

I’m zekrullah Durrani recently graduated from university of imsciences peshawer in computer science and I’m working now with one Germany clothing brand as a social media manager and my hope is to study more in my field for my family and society as a best computer scientist but currently government of taliban is biggest challenge for me but i try my best to achieve my goals and waiting for a suitable opportunity

I possess strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, supported by an academic background in Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science, which equips me to develop innovative and data-driven solutions for sustainability challenges. I am passionate about leveraging technology to address environmental and societal issues and continuously adapt to new knowledge to enhance my contributions. With excellent communication and collaboration skills, I thrive in diverse teams and prioritize fostering teamwork. My creativity and commitment to promoting sustainability drive me to inspire and empower others to take informed, impactful actions toward a more sustainable future.

One of my key strengths is problem-solving. During my undergraduate studies, I worked on a project to develop an AI-based waste management system. The challenge was to create an algorithm that could classify and sort waste efficiently. By breaking down the problem, conducting thorough research, and collaborating with my team, I developed a machine learning model that improved sorting accuracy significantly. This solution not only showcased my ability to solve complex problems but also demonstrated the potential of technology to address real-world sustainability issues.

Yes, I have volunteered as part of a community-based project aimed at promoting digital literacy in underprivileged areas. I helped organize workshops teaching basic computer skills and introduced the participants to online resources for education and job opportunities. This experience taught me the importance of knowledge-sharing and the positive impact technology can have on individuals’ lives. It also strengthened my communication skills and made me realize the value of empowering others with tools that can improve their quality of life.

If I were to lead a sustainability-related project, I would focus on creating an AI-driven platform for optimizing energy consumption within my community or organization. The goal would be to analyze real-time data from energy usage patterns and recommend personalized actions for reducing waste and promoting renewable energy. This project would be impactful because it directly addresses climate change, reduces carbon footprints, and encourages more sustainable energy practices. By using technology to empower individuals and organizations, we can make meaningful progress toward a more sustainable future.

One of the key challenges I expect in implementing an AI-driven platform for energy optimization is data accessibility and quality. In many communities or organizations, real-time energy consumption data might not be readily available, or the data could be inconsistent. To overcome this, I would collaborate with local energy providers and stakeholders to ensure data collection infrastructure is in place. Additionally, I would work on developing data preprocessing methods to clean and standardize the data.

Another challenge could be gaining buy-in from users or organizations to adopt the platform. To address this, I would emphasize the long-term cost savings and environmental benefits of the project, as well as provide clear, user-friendly insights to demonstrate how small actions can lead to significant impacts.

Lastly, technical challenges in building the platform, such as ensuring scalability and integrating with existing systems, could arise. To overcome this, I would work with a multidisciplinary team, including energy experts and software developers, to ensure the platform is both technically sound and adaptable to different contexts.

More than 500 people

Yes

The community that would support me in this project could be a local sustainability-focused organization or energy cooperative. This organization would likely have an interest in promoting energy efficiency and environmental sustainability. By partnering with such a group, I could leverage their resources, network, and expertise in the field of energy management, as well as engage with a community that is already motivated to adopt sustainable practices. Their support would be essential in promoting the project and ensuring its successful implementation within the community.

The sustainability-focused organization or energy cooperative would be able to support my mini-training session by providing access to their network of participants, such as local residents or businesses interested in energy efficiency. They could help with organizing and promoting the training, ensuring we reach a wide audience. Additionally, the organization could offer logistical support, such as securing a venue, providing materials, and coordinating with energy experts or guest speakers to enhance the training content. Furthermore, they could provide credibility to the training session, encouraging more people to attend. Their knowledge of local energy issues and sustainability goals would also help tailor the session to the specific needs of the community, ensuring its relevance and impact.

Sure I will submit my video later
