Objectives

Digital & Financial inclusion has a transformative power on the economy, community, and employment. Digital transformation initiatives have been held back for various reasons but the COVID-19 outbreak showed that the need for Digital transformation can no longer be ignored, especially for vulnerable communities.

Challenge A: 

Following the outbreak of COVID-19, bustling markets, such as Attaba, Mosky, Darb El Barabra had closed down. The vendors were losing money by the hour and consumers had no access to their needs.

Challenge B:

Farmers and producers in Upper Egypt don’t have access to a broad consumer base, especially with the limited movement between rural and urban areas.
