AISHA aims to empower 50,000 healthcare workers and nursing students in 20 Sub-Saharan African countries over the next five years. By providing AI-driven educational resources, AISHA will deliver over 1000 interactive lessons and quizzes, and over 10,000 questions, across more than 100 topics of health, enabling healthcare providers to refresh their clinical knowledge faster and more efficiently. Our goal is to increase healthcare knowledge retention rates and provide easier access to medical education. By having accessible, reliable and fast information, we get providers better equipped to answer questions and therefore, inevitably increasing patient education. As for scalability, AISHA plans to expand to 500 healthcare facilities and answer 100,000 invocations, providing vital support for under-resourced health workers in low resource areas.
