Youth Mobile: Teaching Young People to Create Mobile Apps for Sustainable Development

Paris: UNESCO (2018), 10 pp.
"Mobile technology has become a tool for youth empowerment, activism and socio-economic progress. In developing countries especially, the number of mobile Internet connections is increasing exponentially, and smartphones are often the only computer available. Within this context, YouthMobile enables a critical mass of youth to leverage technology and to address personal and local challenges. The Initiative’s comprehensive training also involves boosting self-confidence and creativity, breaking stereotypes and gender norms and enjoying the act of learning." (Page 1)
