Mobile for Good
Mobile for Good (M4G) is a social franchise project designed to use mobile phone technology to help alleviate poverty and improve the lives of people in the developing world. It delivers vital health, employment and community content via SMS on mobile phones in order to inform and empower disadvantaged individuals and help bridge the 'digital divide' – the widening technology gulf which exists between rich and poor countries.
The Mobile for Good project has already been implemented in Kenya,
where it has been instrumental in helping more than a hundred people
to find jobs every week. The success of this pilot has driven plans to
replicate the franchise to further countries across Africa and the
rest of the developing world.
Mobile for Good has been extensively covered by both national and
international press, including articles from the BBC, New York Times
and Reuters, amongst others.
