dc.description.abstractThe focus of the issue is improvement of rural livelihoods through the use of ICTs. Tailor made information delivery to farmers in five Indian villages via mobile phone technology, has resulted in an increase of net income by 15% in one of the studies. The aim was to develop and provide last mile accessibility tools through short message service (SMS) to farmers’ mobile phones. The bulletin also covers the use of ICTs among casual workers in Sri Lanka to improve livelihoods of the rural poor by matching them with employers.en
