M&E and your Cellphones

[Edcanela]

You guessed it! Project management is discovering more and more uses of the power of the ever present cellphones. Like the internet, cellphones reached the remote rural areas much faster than refrigerators, TV, radio and even electricity did.

Now, cellphones are used in Monitoring and Evaluations (M&E). it will be interesting to have more case studies aside from the ones mentioned in my earlier article. With proper software, cellphones can be hooked up and provide an up-to-the-minute situation and progress of project implementation. Share your thoughts with us.
