| |
Dar es Salaam, Tanzania (Leader): When someone in Tanzania has a question about the illness [AIDS], they can send it to a number, where the question is filed and awaits a response from a university student volunteer. If the answer to the question is not available in the database, students will have access to doctors who can provide them. Swahili is widely spoken in Tanzania, and any texts received that contain the language are automatically detected by the text-messaging software and sent to translators in Africa
