The Mobile Citizen Program: Call for Problems

The Mobile Citizen Program launched earlier this week, and it provides some great funding opportunities for organizations working in mobile technology throughout Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC).  

The program focuses on finding citizen-centric strategies to provide mobile services for low-income areas, both urban and rural.   They express interest in creating models for implementation of mobile technology which have growth potential.   The program also seeks to support research into the social and economic impact of mobile technology on local communities.  

The Mobile Citizen Program has grants available ranging from $30,000 to $100,000 USD, and they hope to implement a maximum of 8 mobile service projects in Latin America and the Caribbean.   They currently have a "Call for Problems" out, seeking applications from organizations operating in the LAC region.   The first application deadline is November 19, 2009.
