The "LastMile” Mobile App: digital innovation for animal health in Africa

Lamyaa Al-Riyami (GALVmed) and Emilie Veillat (the Veterinary Public Health Center at Boehringer Ingelheim) share the LastMile mobile app, a new tool to monitor day-to-day livestock health management activities. The app supports accurate data collection and tracking, and helps teams stay connected with farmers, retailers and veterinarians. The app is part of the LastMile initiative, which works to improve access, availability, and awareness of animal healthcare solutions for smallholder farmers in Africa. LastMile is established by Boehringer Ingelheim, with support from the Global Alliance for Livestock Veterinary Medicines (GALVmed). 

Recorded 10 August 2021 as part of the Livestock Data for Decisions (LD4D) Summer Sessions series.
