• M-Pesa has had a positive economic & social impact on the women in the fishing industry in Lake Victoria (Kenya).• Because of M-Pesa women can now protect their own earnings and save for their businesses, support their families, and send their children to school. • M-Pesa has also given women more free time. They no longer need to travel with their fish to sell it; instead the fish can be sent via public transport to customers and it allows for immediate money transfers. Most of the women now have the time to process more fish to sell and grow their businesses, some have even been able to build their own fishing boats and others have started other businesses outside of fishing (farming, tailoring and retail).

In Africa, 80% of agricultural production comes from small farmers, who are predominantly female.

Women make up the largest percentage of the agricultural workforce, but do not have access and ownership over land and resources.

Case Study

Educating Girls

Due to a predicted significant rise in the world’s population in the coming years, increasing agricultural productivity will be a major challenge. • Vodafone has been working with partners in government, the private and non-profit sectors and we have gained experience and insights from developing and testing new solutions in a wide range of countries.• Mobile solutions have the potential to help farmers. Connecting them equates to increased productivity and income: - Greater access to financial services. - Delivering agricultural information. - Improving data visibility and supply chain efficiency. - Enhancing access to markets.

Even today, girls are less likely to gain an education than boys: they constitute more than 54% of the non-schooled population globally.
