The ubiquity and affordability of mobile presents us with an unparalleled opportunity to improve social and economic development and positively impact lives. However, to realise these benefits, women must not be left behind in the mobile revolution. Mobile technology is a powerful tool. It transcends geographies, cultures and socio-economic status and offers wide-ranging benefits to women and society. Mobile phones help women feel safer and more connected, save time and enable access to key services such mobile money and health information. Mobile phones are important tools for enhancing the lives of women in low- and middle-income countries. Mobile phones help women feel safer and more connected, save time and money, and access lifeenhancing services such as mobile money, or potential education and employment opportunities.

e-PREVENTION's: the project aims at (a) Reducing maternal mortality and maternal health complications through increased access to appropriate healthcare information via mobile voice and text messages in local dialects by pregnant women in rural communities; (b) Accelerating mobile phone ownership and use by at-risk pregnant women in rural communities to increase access to healthcare and empower rural communities. This includes education of women on the benefits of mobile phone ownership and use, as well as facilitating connections with local healthcare workers through 30 minutes of free airtime per month restricted to calling the assigned local health care facility; (c) Educating, training and capacity-building of community health workers using tablets preloaded with up-to-date training materials and content to improve maternal and child health in their communities.

Evidence shows that mobile health tools can help minimize time barriers and facilitate urgent care, as well as support health promotion through mobile messaging services.
