According to AllAfrica.com, this non-profit organization "has already developed cellphone technology to help health-care workers to monitor HIV patients and devised an electronic tracking system for anti-HIV medication dispensed by hospitals and clinics."

It also plans to provide free information about HIV via text messages, video, Mobile Games, and voice messages in the near future. The strategy of blending technology with social work is very appropriate for a country notorious for this disease (5.5 million people) and for its fondness in using mobile phones.
