Phone app to be used in Uganda's vaccine supply chain

A mobile phone app is to be used to ensure vaccines are transported safely to hard-to-reach areas in Uganda.

Under an 18-month pilot, a customised app and wireless temperature monitoring equipment will be used to collect real-time data to improve the visibility of supply chain performance. As part of the trial, a new transport model will be introduced to increase the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of vaccine delivery.
