New iPhone App Makes Jobs For Refugees In Kenya
Dadaab, Kenya is home to extreme poverty and the largest refugee camp in the world. Through the Give Work system, refugees in Dadaab receive Internet training and well-paying, dignified jobs. How does it work? When you complete one simple task on your iPhone or iTouch, the same task is assigned to a trained refugee in Kenya for quality assurance purposes. Once the task is completed and verified, the refugee is paid for the work the two of you collaborated on. Why Give Work? 41 million refugees have lost their home and livelihood due to violent conflict. Many live on less than $1 a day. Every task you do is real work for real companies, and gives vital income to a refugee. The more you work, the more you help. And the more you help, the more pride you claim. The Give Work application includes user statistics and a breakdown reflecting how your micro-volunteering efforts have made a valuable difference in refugees’ lives. More info at www.samasource.org/iphone. [via The Huffington Post] Related: - The Extraordinaries app for micro-volunteering - The Extraordinaries is an interesting new concept in the growing field of iPhone applications — it allows people to use the every part of their spare time cow (waiting for a movie to start, riding a bus, waiting in line) to do small bits of volunteering through “micro-actions.” emily | 8:31 AM | permalink

This is indeed a very promising start for this new travel entertainment mobile application, bringing culture to high-tech mobile products.
