A technological revolution inside every home - the dream of a communications literate population is becoming a reality.

Breaking down Barriers

The legacy of apartheid in South Africa left people in urban townships and rural areas without access to  basic communication technology that defines the digital age. Today, the latest mobile phone technology has changed everything. To reach the poorest communities, the government has had to adapt the technology and build new commercial partnerships. The six video tracks in this album introduce the size of the challenge, government policy and initiatives and the businesses that benefit. This material forms part of the course T324, Keeping Ahead in ICT.
