Mobile Phones for Development Survey complete by 19 Sept 2012

[Marsha Castello]

Hello All,

I work for The Department for International Development (DFID) and I am also  a postgraduate student at Birkbeck, University of London, where I am completing a MSc. in International Business and Development.  I am currently writing my dissertation on the socio-economic impact of mobile phones on smallholder farmers.

I am seeking to discover how mobile technology such as SMS, helplines, information services and the Internet have made a difference in the following areas: 

- Increasing access to financial services (mobile banking)

- Supplying agricultural information

- Increasing data visibility for supply chain efficiency

- Improving access to markets

To this end I have completed the following survey which I would like to invite you to complete by 19 Sept and share as widely as possible:

-Survey for providers of mobile services in agriculture: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NHMZTT5

-Survey for users of mobile services in Agriculture in developing countries: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NXFXMYJ

 

I would be very grateful for your response,

Best regards

Marsha
