 On behalf of the members of the Empowering Development Initiative, I am pleased to launch our first report. As a group, we started our work on Empowering Initiative, essentially started by ITU Development Group over a year ago. We had series of discussions, dialogues and based on our initial discussions, we decided to break this activity into five major groups. Empowerment for education, empowerment for health, commerce, sports and governance. In each of these five areas, we have series of recommendations. We looked at good practices and we have worked out a roadmap going forward because we strongly believe that mobile applications in these five areas are critical to improving quality of life, especially in developing countries. Now, our job is to really begin some concrete work based on this report in the areas of advocacy, innovations, creating platforms and technology and also mobilizing fair amount of resources to really execute on some of these ideas. The key challenge is to reach out to large number of people at the leadership level in many countries also at the level of ministers of education, health, IT, communication, commerce and all that and also sensitize civil society, students, academicians, entrepreneurs and large number of people to really expedite work on mobile applications. Our main focus essentially is on education and health because we believe there are low hanging fruits in these areas so with little bit of effort, we can really gain a lot.
