Abstract

This demonstration highlights the latest advances of Freedom Fone: Dial-up Information Service. Freedom Fone provides organisations with a simple to use interface to manage Interactive Voice Response (IVR) menus and upload prerecorded content into an "audio magazine." Members of the public can then phone in to listen to the latest information, or to leave a message. Freedom Fone prototype software has been piloted in Zimbabwe and South Africa, with sexual health, women's rights and cholera awareness information
