The project
A generative-AI approach to non-communicable disease prevention designed for a low-resource health system, developed with the constraints of the Gambian context as the starting point rather than an afterthought.
The selection
9 finalists from 300+ submissions across 79 countries. That ratio is the receipt; we do not restate it as a claim about the hub's size.
