- Health is an important subject that effects everyone. As disease transmission climbs globally, it’s important to have an effective form of communication for keeping the public informed. Youth in bottom billion countries are especially at risk as they often make up most of the population and therefore lack proper knowledge of their reproductive health and what to do if they contract a disease.

- Based on research and interviews, we have discovered that SMS is an effective and very affordable way for health-related organizations to communicate with youth regarding health issues. We believe this is a service that will allow for people to get quicker access to healthcare, especially those in rural areas of bottom billion countries where healthcare is scarce as we are already seeing in places like Ghana, Malawi and India. The research and data presented today demonstrates that the U.S. has some catching up to do in terms of providing better services for youth.
