This is the sixth webinar in the AI4I series. It took place on 4 February 2021.

Since the advent of the Covid-19 pandemic, the AI4I initiative has been working to capture and share insights with interested parties, and in a selection of countries is engaged with governments, MNOs and other relevant parties, together working to increase local capability and capacity to respond using mobile big data analytics.

Building on the best practice and theory already shared in the series, this webinar focused on these ongoing in-country activities – including perspectives from government end users – to highlight the achievements and explore the challenges arising from the application of the mobile data analytics best practice principles for Covid-19 and beyond.

During this session GSMA hosted a fireside chat with Angelos Munezero, Public Sector Digitization Analyst from Ministry of ICT & Innovation, Rwanda, to discuss their first-hand experience of mobile data analytics capability and capacity development.

The session covered the following areas:

• Stages of country engagement
• Evolution of use cases during COVID-19
• First hand experiences of mobile data analytics capability and capacity development
