Thank you for sharing. 

If anyone is interested in partnering with Zindi on one of these applications to propose an ML community challenge focusing on health, please send me a message and we can connect to see what is feasible. We'd love to host a challenge in this area!

Building AI together

[Paul Kennedy]

Hi Essa,

Do you have a specific project in mind? We've found with long experience that these applications work best if the organisation we are working with has a great dataset/problem they want to solve. ZIndi can be the partner for community engagement, model development, and technical expertise.

Regards

Hey Paul, 

Essa here from the Tanzania AI Community, Love to see what we can do to propose a focused version in Tanzania if relevant. 

The IDRC one is already closed unfortunately

Kind regards, 

Essa
