So now everyone has
that functionality.JSI is expanding its use in Ghana to
8 other countries as part of the USAID DELIVER project to track
drug stocks.
Example: Kenya MOH
Kenya MOH routinely uses
EpiSurveyor for child health,
emergency polio vaccination campaigns,
and many other uses.
Kenya MOH taught UNICEF Kenya, who is now using EpiSurveyor to
track child health activities (as well as employee travel!)
Example: TulaSaludSmall Guatemalan NGO working on
maternal mortality.

online, tested it, started using it,
and then sent us a wonderful video of
them using it!
Example: Ontario Gov’tOntario Ministry of Agriculture and University of Guelph are
tracking veterinarian illness with
EpiSurveyor in rural Canada.Ontario sent us a check for $5000
just “to say thank you for EpiSurveyor.”
Lots more examplesThe World Bank uses EpiSurveyor to collect economic data in Latin
