E-democracy or " democracy on line " in Togo

Challenges Entered: 

DESCRIPTION DETAILLEE OF THE PROJECT 1                              Problems Togo is confronted for a long time with a political   instability born from the political stakes related to the democratic   insufficiency.   The recurring problem is that relating to the claims of the results of   the elections.   Very often considered to be imperfect and   nontransparent by the losing parts, the elections in Togo following   the example other countries in the process of development (in the   process of democratization) reflect the political organization of the   country.   Many violations of the humans right are noted at the time of their   behaviour.   They are primarily inter alia, the political exactions,   repressions, the intimidations and threats physical, morals and   intellectual and of the violations of the rights of press and   information.   Moreover much of the political demonstrations which however constitute   a democratic right are often repressed in blood thus sowing terror   within the population and contributing of this fact to muzzle it and   reduce it to silence.   In a country where information is still under control very strict of   the Executive, the right of information and to information thus   becomes a difficult challenge even impossible to raise.   2                              Solution It is thus advisable to ensure a better democracy in our   country than information on these various violations is popularized.   This is why, it seemed convenient to us to create a system of   information management relating to the violations of the humans right   born at the time of the elections and the political demonstrations.   The choice of the system of transmission of information by SMS and MMS   appears judicious insofar as one attends nowadays in our country the   rise of mobile telephony and New Communication and Information   Technologies (NTIC).   These technologies constitute modern means of diffusion of information   and a genuine tool for investigation and pleas for the defense of the  humans right.   3                              Technical description of " E-democracy "   " E-democracy " is a platform of management of information   (transport and multi-media).   It is a technical data base made up of   technical and software equipment data-processing intended to treat the   SMS (Shorts Message Service) and the MMS (Multi-media Message   Service).   It is about an application (data-processing program) which uses one or   more key words making it possible to the users to express a request   with the editor of service by the sending of a SMS-MO (Shorts Mobile   Message Service Originated) or of a MMS-MO (Multi-media Message Mobile   Service Originated).   The platform is connected to the network of radiocommunication   exploited by an operator of mobile telephony by a technical connection   which is a physical connection to SMS-Gateway allowing the exchange of   information between the platform and the mobile network of telephony.       It is advisable to specify that a short free number (toll-free number)   is allotted to the service " E-democracy " and who allows the user of   the mobile to reach free this service.   Ultimately, when a person is pilot of a scene of violations of the   humans right at the time of a political demonstration or elections to   Togo, it will be enough for him to write a description of the scene or   to film the scene with its multi-media mobile telephone then to   compose the code of sending and to send information on the short free   number of " E-democracy ".  

Information is sent instantaneously to the platform of " E-democracy "   which is given the responsability to treat it and to publish it on   Internet.

Projet très interressant et adapté à la situation socio-politique du TOGO.

Reste à espérer qu'il soit sélectionné et permettre ainsi au TOGO de continuer sur la voie de la démocratisation.

Projet original et interressant pour les pays de l'Afrique en général et le Togo en particulier.
