SOG Workshop | December 2018
The Maputo team engaged with researchers and decision-makers to co-design and establish an improved early-warning tool for climate-induced vector-borne and water-borne diseases within the Maputo City Municipality. Enabled by a FRACTAL project grant, administered by START, Genito Maure, Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Science of Eduardo Mondlane University, and his team have been working on creating an app that links weather forecasts with the risk of outbreaks of waterborne and vector-borne diseases such as malaria and cholera. Further information on this project is available here.
