International Network on Sensor and Timing Applications with Quantum Technologies (INSTA-QT)

INSTA-QT汇集了来自每个有人居住的大陆的专家，利用英国国家量子技术计划的力量来应对世界面临的全球挑战。这将从本质上需要与区域从业人员开展国际合作才能取得成功，并通过未来的全球挑战方案为长期可持续的国际合作提供了一条自然的途径。我们将专注于几个关键的联合国可持续发展目标（SDG），量子传感器和定时可以发挥作用。这特别包括通过更好地管理地下水和干旱、洪水、地震和火山活动等自然灾害来消除饥饿和气候变化。我们还将把人们与量子技术联系起来，以改善健康和净零碳。我们的国际参与者正在与当地专家建立联系，他们知道发展中国家真实的世界中什么是有效的，什么是真正需要的。研讨会期间建立的关系将通过访问者计划和开放英国设施来加深，供人们在试验中评估他们的可持续发展目标技术解决方案。这将使英国在制定量子传感器在实际应用中的使用标准方面发挥主导作用，并向国际人才宣传英国是他们下一个职业发展的有吸引力的地方。

INSTA-QT brings together experts from every inhabited continent to harness the power of the UK National Quantum Technology Program to address the Global Challenges facing the world. This will intrinsically need an international collaboration with regional practitioners to succeed and offers a natural pathway to long-term sustainable international collaborations via future global challenges programmes. We will focus on several crucial UN Sustainable Developments Goals (SDG), where Quantum Sensors and timing can make a difference. This in particular includes fighting hunger and climate change via better management of underground water and natural disasters such as droughts, flooding, earthquakes and volcanic activity. We will also link people on quantum technologies for better health and net-zero carbon. Our international participants are providing connections to local experts, who know what works and what is really needed in the real world in developing countries.Relations initiated during workshops will be deepened by a visitor programme and opening up UK facilities for people to assess their SDG technology solutions in trials. This will allow to build a leading role for the UK in setting standards for the use of quantum sensors in practical applications and advertise the UK to international talent as attractive location for their next career step.
