Building Cross-Border Cooperation Strategies for Drones in the Development Sector
Drones, or uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs), have emerged as transformative tools across various sectors, including agriculture, healthcare, disaster management, and environmental conservation. Their ability to access remote areas, collect real-time data, and perform tasks with precision has positioned them as critical instruments for addressing development challenges.
