Mobimocc is an IVR-based platform that empowers rural women by providing accessible GBV education, interactive support, and real-time counseling through feature phones.

Mobimocc is a digital initiative by the Reclaiming Spaces Initiative that began in 2019. The project is designed specifically for rural women, providing a lifeline for survivors and individuals affected by Gender-Based Violence (GBV). Through an IVR (Interactive Voice Response) platform, women can access lessons, songs, and GBV-related information via feature phones, ensuring inclusivity even in areas with limited internet access.

Impact

The project has transformed the way GBV information is disseminated, creating safe spaces for learning, asking questions, and receiving real-time counseling. It has empowered women to take informed steps toward safety and well-being, amplifying rural voices in combating GBV. The engagement of counselors directly on the platform has also fostered a sense of community and immediate support.

How Can People Help?

To support Mobimocc, individuals and organizations can:

  1. Partner to extend the platform’s reach and content.
  2. Donate to fund operational costs like call subsidies for users.
  3. Volunteer as counselors or trainers to enhance support quality.
  4. Advocate for policies that support similar inclusive technologies.

Together, we can amplify rural voices and foster a more equitable future!
