Use Case: AI-Chatbot for Prevention and Control of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in The Gambia
The chatbot integrates national health resources with everyday communication channels to strengthen service delivery and rapid response through multilingual, evidence-based guidance. It builds on the WHO–ITU Be He@lthy, Be Mobile initiative and The Gambia’s National Digital Health Investment Case, led by the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy, and the Secretariat of the UNIATF.
Applications are closed. Phase 2 is underway.
