Conclusion and Future
Plans
The project highlighted how digital tools, tailored to
local contexts, bridged communication gaps in rural
food systems. By delivering information in the local
language via mobile phones, the initiative enhanced
knowledge uptake and behavioral change,
emphasizing inclusive development by targeting
underserved groups and aligning with national food
safety priorities.
The team planned to scale the initiative by
integrating it into government-led extension services
and exploring partnerships with telecom providers
and development partners. The Ghana case
exemplified the potential of simple, localized
technology to drive systemic improvements in
agricultural health and productivity, offering a
replicable model for other countries facing similar
challenges.
