| Campaign Mobile - Forests and Cities |
NGOs and campaign groups have been slow to take advantage of mobile phones. This is the first in a series of events that aims to show that there is plenty of mobile technology out there already and to provide a forum help take advantage of it and to share ideas and expertise.
We are fortunate to have a visit from Oscar Soria from Greenpeace in Argentina who will be talking about his first hand experiences of mobileactivism and some of Greenpeace Argentina's usage of mobile phones in campaigns (which is different!). He will draw on their work in the forest ( Greenpeace Uses SMS To Monitors Forest Destruction ) and the campaign on zero waste that recently won the 160Characters Mobile Messaging Award for 'Best messaging application: public sector/not for profit' as well as their plans for forthcoming projects using mobile.
