    Weerwi – AI-Driven Counseling for Young Girls Using a Large Language Model

    The Weerwi mobile application provides reproductive health information to young girls in Senegal and West Africa, currently handling around 10,000 monthly interactions. Upgrading its chatbot with generative AI and an advanced Large Language Model (LLM) will enable more personalized advice, considering previous interactions, and a familiar communication style to better target young girls on prevention and awareness.  In addition, the team will implement a content recommendation algorithm based on the user’s interactions with the chatbot. Personalized notifications with a proposal for relevant content (video, etc.) will be sent to users.
