//thought frameworkIt is hard to imagine a that community of members surviving on less than $2 a day will derive any real value from the benefits of Web2.0 from services such as del.icio.us, Youtube or Facebook.

The intention of MZANZI.mobi is a promise of hope to itʼs users. The aim is to give communities in South Africa a voice that is heard by a global market place, a voice that can be acted upon in a real and meaningful way.

MZANZI.mobi aims to abstract the benefits and notions of Web 2.0 into a form that is accessible to a mass population, but more importantly will make a real difference in the lives of everyday South Africans by transforming mobile phone interaction into a global platform for action.

How have we benefitted from social media ?

1. Internal blog where we share developments and ideas

2. Putting videos on Youtube puts the work into contextand keeps international funders up to date

3. Using social media tools appeals to our partners & funders

4. Social media is an indirect marketing & reputation tool and not a direct marketing channel

5. Met REALLY cool people!!!
