mCAST is a mobile adult education platform, aimed at providing easy access to education and communication content via mobile applications.

48 million people in the world who have mobile phones, do not have electricity at home. One of the most surprising developments of the past few years has been the extension of mobile services even beyond the boundaries of the power grid. 32 countries have broken the electricity barrier and by the end of 2011, the total number of mobile users in Sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia will exceed the total on-grid population.
