AI4PEP Senegal has been prominently featured in the 2025 Q1 “AI in Africa” Summary Report by Convergence AI, under the AI for Digital Transformation section. The recognition highlights the team’s efforts to apply artificial intelligence in strengthening community-based epidemiological surveillance systems across Senegal.

Led in partnership with the Ministry of Health and Social Action, AI4PEP Senegal’s work is grounded in the One Health approach, recognizing the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. Their ongoing mission emphasizes the critical role of community engagement in the early detection of disease outbreaks reinforcing that surveillance is not solely the responsibility of health authorities, but of the entire community.

At the core of this initiative is 3S, a newly launched AI-powered platform developed to improve real-time surveillance of zoonotic diseases in Senegal. By leveraging advanced data analytics and natural language processing, 3S helps identify risks faster and more accurately, enabling early responses to emerging health threats.

The report underscores the relevance of this work as part of a broader movement to integrate ethical, inclusive, and context-sensitive AI into public health systems across Africa. AI4PEP Senegal plans to continue hosting interactive sessions to engage more stakeholders in discussions around the future of AI in health surveillance.

This recognition reinforces AI4PEP’s growing leadership across the continent in fostering AI solutions that are locally driven, equity-focused, and aligned with public health priorities.
