Mobile for Social Development

Mobile Solutions ForumMobile technology is often dominated by talk of social applications, gaming, publishing or e-commerce and seldom addresses technologies that directly assist social development. The Asian region boasts ample opportunity for social transformation aided by such innovative mobile technologies but is need of initiatives to promote and engage social development and the technology sector. Recognizing these development opportunities afforded by mobile, USAID’s Regional Development Mission for Asia is hosting a Mobile Solutions Forum January 6th, 2014 in Bangkok. The Mobile Solutions Forum is open to local technology firms, implementing partners, network operators, developers, and others interested in using mobile solutions to achieve development outcomes. The forum will provide an opportunity for participants to learn about the current state and potential opportunities in the space where mobile tech and social development converge. This event is strategically tied to USAID’s broader goal to utilize the potential of science, technology, innovation, and partnerships to catalyze development solutions to enhance effective impact. The one-day event is co-organized by USAID’s strategic partners and is free of charge.
