Project overview:
There are a quarter of a billion pastoralists in Africa using basic, and increasingly unreliable methods to find adequate grazing. AfriScout is an innovative social enterprise using a mobile phone application targeted to pastoral populations that fuses traditional knowledge and practices with the accuracy of satellite imagery to more precisely locate grazing areas. Developed through the support of USAID/DIV, Google, Fintrac and other donors, and after initially piloting with paper maps, PCI developed an Android-powered app that provides digital information to enhance the way pastoralists make migration decisions. AfriScout places real-time vegetation and water resource maps using satellite data directly in the hands of pastoralists. Since its inception, PCI and AfriScout have reached over 1 million pastoralists. PCI aims to expand its reach and build a financially sustainable social enterprise through a fee-for-service model.
