Ghana Leverages Digital Tech to Enhance Animal Disease Surveillance

Ghana has unveiled a new digital tool, the Events Mobile Application Plus (EMAi+), to revolutionize its approach to animal disease surveillance, reporting, and early warning systems. The launch, held in Accra, signifies a major step forward in safeguarding the country’s agricultural sector and public health.

EMAi+ and the Future of Animal Health in Ghana

The Minister of Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, hailed the launch of EMAi+ as a landmark achievement. He emphasized the critical role of robust animal disease surveillance in preventing and managing emerging diseases that pose a threat to public health, food security, and the economic well-being of the nation. Priya Gujadhur, the Country Representative for the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), also attended the event. The EMAi+ platform is expected to significantly improve the speed and accuracy of disease reporting, enabling faster response times and more effective control measures.

By investing in innovative technologies like EMAi+, Ghana is demonstrating a commitment to protecting its livestock industry and ensuring the health and safety of its citizens. This proactive approach to animal disease management is crucial for sustainable agricultural development and overall national prosperity.
