Infographic: Mobile phone growth transforms Africa

Thank you for highlighting how amazingly impactful that mobile technology has become across the African continent. Having worked on a Gates project teaching Infant Young Child Feeding tips in Ethiopia last year, we engaged text platforms as part of our outreach campaign. Watching rural agrarians using the text platform to inform them of crop prices at the Ethiopian Commodities Exchange was another active tool that expands access. Innovation without being overly invasive into native cultures.

Do anyone have an idea about researchthat may be is available on the economic impact of mobile 'phones?
