ECA and Partners to launch the Africa Communication and Information Platform in response to COVID-19

Africa is about to roll out a groundbreaking mobile based public communications platform to provide more than 600 million users across the continent with the latest public health advice. The Africa Communication and Information Platform will also furnish national and regional COVID task forces with user generated survey data and actionable health and economic insights. The platform will also allow COVID-taskforces to deploy health and economic resources to mitigate the pandemic’s impact. The integrator can also provide smart alerts for anomalies detected by the AI. It should be stressed that all information is for use at the national authority level- national COVID task forces, ministries of health and finance. Furthermore, national authorities retain control over data provided by their own users and decide what information is made available to their national users.
