Piloting Worker Voice Technology In Pakistan for Cotton Farmers

In recent news, the global non-profit organization, Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) has piloted the Worker Voice Technology in Pakistan to better understand the kind of challenges cotton farmers have to deal with. This technology allows users to hear from workers about their respective working conditions through their mobile devices.

This technology acts as a transmitter and as a receiver hence a two-way communication. Moreover, the information gathered from this technology helps users to understand the usual farming practices and overall capacity building. BCI began exploring the use of the technology in Sindh in order to better understand how technology can play a pivotal role in the agriculture ecosystem.
