From a PowerPoint presentation by Anneke Bosman, Amnesty International, The Netherlands.

In keeping with this blog’s mission to bring you concentrated nuggets of tactical and strategic information, we continue our exploration of new tactics involving the use of mobile phones. I draw my inspiration today from various posts and papers found mostly on the sites of resource people for our tactical discussion on using mobile phones for action. 

My last post covered the emergence short messaging as a tool for protest organizing in various countries, including the Philippines, how Amnesty International set up its youth-based SMS Alert network, and how to find some protest ringtones. I now turn to some incredibly creative emergent uses of wireless communications for human rights and social change work.

So here are my top five up and coming uses of mobile phones for positive change.
