Challenge 3 - Boat Registration● Governance and sustainability● Any fisher (wherever) can send a registration request by
mobile phone● Request -> Approval -> Registration ID generated● Registration in related databases
Things to Think About w.r.t. West Africa● Number of mobile phones very high● Less smartphones, more feature phones● Frequent use of USSD and SMS● Access to Internet limited BUT first time on the
Internet through a mobile● Lower literacy rate● Language (Wolof, French, Hassanya...)● Twilio does not have international numbers in all
countries
SMS is a Solution!
Facebook by USSD
