Often times the most obvious/direct methods of addressing these problems fail spectacularly. Put a different way, simply dropping tons of food on a population doesn't benefit their ability to become sustainable. I'm not suggesting we cut off food aid, but rather trying to understand how mobile phones make a good investment for an organization like UNICEF.
