Apologies for cross-posting!

We are pleased to announce the release of a new report on Wireless  
Technology for Social Change: Trends in NGO Mobile Use - http:// 
mobileactive.org/wireless-technology-social-change-trends-ngo-mobile-use

Mobile technology is transforming the way advocacy, development and  
relief organizations accomplish their institutional missions. This is  
nothing news to readers of MobileActive.org, of course!  The recent  
report Wireless Technology for Social Change: Trends in NGO Mobile  
Use, released today by the United Nations Foundation and The Vodafone  
Group Foundation, brings this point home.

Wireless Technology for Social Change: Trends in NGO Mobile Use was  
written by Sheila Kinkade (ShareIdea.org) and myself, and  
commissioned by the United Nations Foundation-Vodafone Group  
Foundation Technology Partnership. The report examines emerging  
trends in “mobile activism” by looking at 11 case studies of groups  
active in the areas of public health, humanitarian assistance and  
environmental conservation.

Please feel free to pass on to other interested parties, and thanks!

Best,

Katrin
