Mobile Vulnerability Analysis and Mapping (mVAM) in DRC

The mobile Vulnerability Analysis and Mapping (mVAM) project uses mobile phones and voice recognition technologies to collect food security data in some of the country’s most vulnerable communities. The mVAM project allows WFP to monitoring food security at affordable costs in hard to reach and remote areas .

It provides timely, regular, and frequent data. The project was successfully piloted in the Mugunga III camp for internally displaced people (IDP) near Goma, and it will be rolled out on a national scale in March 2016.
