Help Solve Problems on a Global Scale

The Vodafone Foundation (VF) created a partnership with the UN Foundation to bring the tools of mobile technology to help the UN address the world’s toughest challenges more effectively and efficiently.
 
The Technology Partnership program matches the resources, strategy and experience of the world's leading mobile telecommunications company with the global scale of the United Nations.

Partnering with the UN Foundation has resulted in the creative use of mobile technology to connect families separated by disaster, help emergency relief works to respond more quickly, and empower local health workers with data to help combat disease and epidemics.
