Partners
Cell-Life
Cell-Life is a not-for-profit (Section 21) company based in Cape Town that develops technical systems for the HIV sector. In 2007 Cell-Life received funding to develop cellphone system for mass messaging to the wider HIV-community.
This is a three-year project, funded by the Vodacom Foundation and the RAITH Foundation.
In South Africa there are approximately 34 million active cellphone users, and around three-quarters (75%) of all adults and children have a cellphone. While there are many companies making money from ringtones and picture downloads, there are very few socially relevant or developmental services. This project will explore how a range of cellphone services can provide information and communication services that are useful to people infected or affected by HIV.
