<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">MOTIF (MObile Technology for Improved Family Planning) is an innovative mobile phone-based intervention, providing personalised post-abortion family planning
(PAFP) support for Marie Stopes International
Cambodia (MSIC) clients.
Providing women with contraceptive methods
following abortion is important to reduce repeat
abortion rates. </span></span><br>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br></span></span>
The <a href="http://www.mariestopes.org.kh/community_projects.html" target="_blank">MOTIF</a>
project comprised the development, implementation and the evaluation of
a mobile phone-based intervention using voice messages(<a href="http://www.ilabsoutheastasia.org/technologies/verboice/">Verboice</a>) to support
post-abortion family planning.<br>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The
International Labour Organisation’s Better Factories Cambodia program
(BFC) launched Kamako Chhnoeum (Outstanding Worker) on September 1,
2013. The system is available for free to workers calling on two
networks: Smart and Cellcard. Metfone will join the program soon.</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The project uses an <a href="http://verboice-cambodia.instedd.org/" target="_blank">Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system - Verboice</a>
to educate garment and footwear workers on issues of importance to
them. The format is a phone-in quiz where workers answer questions
related to salary and allowances, occupational health and safety, and
personal health. The caller chooses one topic on which they would like
to be quizzed and is then asked a series of three questions.</span></span><br>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Every week until 2010, Dr. Sophornnarith, director of the Kien Svay Operational District (OD), noticed irregularity of the weekly reports of some health centers in the district. The Health Center staff were not careless about completing and sending the reports, but they were expected to follow a process that created logistical problems. </span></span></div>

And this approach has become a great deal, more reliable and understandable way to complete this critical reporting task. </span></span><br>

Here is what she thinks of her internship.</span></span><br>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

The knowledge I could retrieve from high school and university has always seemed very theoretical to me, even though it interested and inspired me. Academic knowledge is useful as long as you know what you want to do with it. What I needed was to develop a practical application of my academic knowledge.</span></span></div>

I’ve realized that I felt truly interested and involved in the journalist’s assignments, such as looking for information required for articles, as well as writing articles. Understanding complex systems like Data Integration took some time, but I really enjoyed investigating them. </span></span></div>

He is not aware he has the disease but describes having some symptoms. The village Health Center (“HC”) doesn’t have the facilities to make a diagnosis based on medical analysis, and therefore turns to a specialized laboratory at the downtown district. </span></span></span><br>

<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Last
month, my colleague at the iLab Southeast Asia and I were fortunate
enough to attend BarCamp Yangon. This was my second time participating
in the event focused on spreading ICT knowledge throughout the country.
As part of the international network of BarCamp conferences, or rather
“unconferences” as organizers refer to it, people from a variety of
different backgrounds and geographies come together to create
user-generated sessions focused primarily on technology and the web. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: small; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">While
Myanmar is not well known for their technological capacity, they are
still responsible for putting on the largest BarCamp events in history.
People come from all over the world to participate and I was happy to
see lots of international participants (much more than when I was last
here in 2011) as well as participants from high tech companies like
Google and Firefox. Having such a diverse community allowed me to
connect with local Burmese startups as well as both local and
international developers and BarCampers.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 13.5pt; text-align: justify;">Since
most of our work is in low resource settings, most of the people who use our
technologies have very little education. We call these people "low
level users". Even though these users have little to no education,
we still find that using technologies to help them share information is
incredibly helpful. The most important thing to remember when designing
tools for them is to build on the skills and resources that they are already
familiar with.</span><br>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Remembering back to
college, when I was first being taught how to program computers with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none;">HTML</span></a>, my teacher
demonstrated a web application he had made to calculate electricity expenses by
entering the previous and current months’ electric meter numbers. That
moment was so amazing, and I looked at the demo without blinking. I
almost forgot to breathe as he said, “We were about to be able to do the same
thing by the end of the day." That was how engaging my first day as
a software developer was for me.</span></div>

monthly malaria reports to the health center. From there, the health
center submitted their reports to the Operational District (OD). And from
there, the OD submitted their reports to the Provincial Health Department (PHD).
And finally, once all the reports are collected, the PHD submitted them all to
the national level. This whole process can take up to 3 months!</span></span></span><br>

Picture help people understand much faster than with text.</span><br>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;">When people see the yellow sign with black exclamation make on the middle of the sign, they know that they have to pay attention of their driving. Also with company logos, they usually represent what the company is about. For example, if a company is working in agriculture, their logo may be designed with green colors and some agriculture products they serve.</span><br>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">In day to day working life, one often runs into various kinds of exciting challenges.

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">In the developing world, the latest critical information such as current flooding levels, available vaccines, total casualties and location coordinates are rarely available to the most remote and vulnerable people. Due to the lack of information, people's health and safety as well as the economy have been affected. By the time relief workers are made aware of what is going on, things might have already gone worse. Thus making the rescue and recovery process the much more of a struggle.</span></span><br>
