Integrating Mobiles into Development Projects

This handbook is for health practitioners who are interested in using mobile technology effectively in their projects.

Most of the examples highlighted are from Southeast Asia, although the relevance of the content is global. Since the mobiles for development space is evolving rapidly, the handbook is intended to equip readers with a set of questions to ask when using or considering mobiles, rather than providing a prescription for how to use mobiles in a given country or sector.

The handbook is divided into two sections. The first section is entitled Understand, and is meant to be an in-depth guide of everything you might need to know about mobiles. The second section is entitled Implement. It provides practical tips and information related to integrating mobiles into a project in practice. The components in the Implement section mirror the different phases associated with USAID programming to situate you in a familiar framework when introducing new concepts and topics
