Evidence snapshot for Togo
Togo has pioneered AI-targeted cash transfers through its Novissi programme, which used machine learning on satellite imagery and mobile-phone data to reach 920,000+ people with emergency COVID-19 cash assistance, improving targeting precision by 42% compared with simple geographic targeting while reducing exclusion errors by 4–21% versus geographic methods (though still producing 9–35% higher exclusion errors than a full social registry would). The country is now scaling this approach through ASTRE, with plans to reach 1.24 million people by 2029. Additionally, psychology-based personal initiative training for 1,500 microentrepreneurs in Lomé raised monthly profits by 30% within 2.5 years, substantially outperforming conventional business training.
