In Latin America, 175 million people still live in poverty.
That includes a lot of 15-29 year-olds who are in a really vulnerable state,
who could be caught up in a vicious cycle.
In order to change the course of this story jobs are needed,
and in order to get a job, you need education.
The #CaseForChange came to me, so together we can learn
what mobile technology is doing to overcome this.
I'm Mariel De Viaje, and this is #CaseForChange.
The Carlos Slim Foundation and American Movil are doing some incredible stuff
to take free education to remote communities in the region,
and all of this is possible because of mobile phones.
Because this platform called aprende.org is fully accessible at anytime and anyplace.
This online platform provides a range of free courses
on everything from health, entertainment, art, culture and more.
I'm very excited because I'm going to meet Alejandro Reyes.
and he is going to show us how he used aprende.org to improve his work.
What do you do exactly?
We grow chocolate and habanero peppers.
Is it hot?
Super hot.
What was the name of the course?
It was 'Organic agricultural technician'.
Alejandro, do you see any difference before and after the course?
Well the difference for me was a 15% rise on the production of habanero peppers.
The organic grading, the implementation of mulch and irrigation system resulted in a better production.
I can take more money home and then I can buy more food,
equipment and even tools for the production.
So how did you study?
I just used my mobile.
If I had any problem I opened the app and looked for any solutions i could use.
A lot of people wonder – why bother studying?
Today, thanks to Alejandro's story, I learn that studying puts
more bread on the table for your family.
Hi Cesar, how are you?
What are you studying?
I'm at highschool studying for a technical diploma in health care
at the CBTIS 181 38 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,000 Come on, let's take a pic…smile.
What course did you choose?
I took the first aid course in the health section.
How can you connect if you don't have data?
It's automatic, you don't need any data, the app is free to use
What's the difference between learning from a book
and learning digitally through technology?
It's harder from a book, if you want to learn something you first have
to buy it and it's not all in one book, so you'll have to buy many more.
The app, on the other hand, has it all in just one platform.
Do you think this platform can change the life of people with no access to education?
Yes, because it's easy to use and completely free.
It's just a matter of downloading the app.
t's amazing to witness the impact that our mobiles have, as well as the access to knowledge.
For example, with Cesar I'm very excited in knowing that he is going to be
able to help a lot of people because of the first aid course he is studying.
And now we are at the aprender.org offices.
The foundation team are going to welcome us so we can chat a bit more.
Hey! It's amazing. Behind this project are many passionate people
that work every day in order to push aprende.org forward.
So tell me, what's the mission of aprende.org?
The mission is to share. We use technology as a door through
which we can deliver knowledge to those who need it most.
At the end, anyone with access to a mobile phone has guaranteed free access to education,
After meeting the people that work here and make aprende.org a reality,
I get why this project touches the hearts of so many people.
Around the world, mobile technology is being put to use
in lots of innovative ways to help make change for good,
so simply like, comment, and share this video,
and follow the #CaseForChange on its journey to India.
Travelling the world, it's packed with everything people need
to tell their story of what mobile operators globally are doing
to tackle the UN 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
