This project proposes to set up an AI Incubation and Skills Development Centre through the Pune Knowledge Cluster (PKC). The objectives of the centre will be to use
Specific programmes in a few sectors will be undertaken to meet these objectives. Scaling to other sectors and regions will be considered later in the programme. The functions of the Centre will be carried out by a core staff aided by experts from PKC knowledge partners. The main knowledge partner for the incubation will be the Digital Impact Square (DISq) at Nashik, Maharashtra. The PKC will provide coordination, high-level oversight, find knowledge partners and will seek funding from various sources. The current proposal is for a five-year timeframe.

This project uses a science and technology based approach to climate resilience. Its two-pronged strategy, will be piloted in the Pune region. Strategy:
The key modules of this project (part B) include (i) model plantation by land use category (ii) sapling adoption (iii) Tree recruitment – data collection & mapping (iv) tree mortality measurement (iv) tree growth measurements and data modelling. The carbon sequestration capacity of the current tree stand and projected capacity (with predictive modelling) will be available. Once the emission data is available, this tool will create a prescription for tree plantation. This tool will assist the smart cities in India with Pune region serving as the pilot.
This project will be collaboratively delivered by the Centre for Ecological Sciences, IISc, Bangalore, Department of Botany & Statistics, SP Pune University, Agharkar Research Institute, Wildlife Research & Conservation Society and the Pune Knowledge Cluster. The participatory components will leverage ecology/biology students and volunteers from local communities.

The overarching aim of this project is to establish an integrated scalable epidemiological database in Pune district. The development of such a scalable, secure, open-source, and interoperable database will help strengthen the health systems through responsive and evidence-based decisions on all public health policies.
The project will be consist of three main objectives
The first objective will involve the collection of information related to status of the reportable diseases, data capture modes, data storage and common variables recorded across different public sector health facilities.
The results will provide a basic understanding of the status of the reportable diseases, data capture modes, data storage and common variables recorded across different public sector health facilities. Furthermore, this will identify the scope of the PEP-DATA project
Once the database is developed and implemented in Pune City, it can be scalable to include other diseases and implemented at a national level.
