with a cost/benefit analysis. The volunteer will need to know about data
gathering methods, policy implementation and evaluation, and an understanding
of social research techniques would also be beneficial.

Information
about the organisation:
Wefarm is a free peer-to-peer service that enables
farmers to share information via SMS, without the internet and without having
to leave their farm. Farmers can ask questions on farming and receive
crowd-sourced answers from other farmers around the world in minutes.
Wefarm
seeks to empower farmers to share and access information to solve problems,
spread innovation and ultimately improve their livelihood.
Wefarm’s
vision is to create a new digital ecosystem for global agriculture, made for
farmers, by farmers. To date, the organisation’s’ main activities have been:
1)
Development of the technology (including machine learning algorithms)
2)
Developing a playbook of engagement strategies to register new users and launch
Wefarm in new countries
3)
Developing partnerships with NGO’s, companies and governments
