Overview:

Home to nearly a billion people, the 54 countries that make up the African continent are ushering in an era of liberty, democracy, and robust economic development. The mobile phone is having a dramatic effect on the lives of Africans and is proving to be a life-transforming device. Limited by weak physical infrastructure and supported by their ingenuity, the people of the continent are turning to the mobile phone to improve their living standards. From a mere 1 million cellular phones in 1996, Africa is now estimated to have over 278 million subscribers. The mobile phone is a key economic driver and the people use it to make several things possible - everything from getting buyers for produce to obtaining information and from reducing travel time to enabling access to banking.
