I am happy to let you all know that the final decision of the competition has now been taken and we are one of the winners of the competition (www.itu.int/ITU-D/cyb/cybersecurity/competition/).

In this competition we covered the topic 'Mobiles for Development: Enabling Low-Cost e-Applications for Rural and Remote Areas (e-health)' and present our practical and implemented approach.

The purpose of the 2009 ITU Cybersecurity and ICT Applications Essay Competition is to increase awareness of cybersecurity and the potential of ICT applications, and give young people, especially from developing countries, exposure to the main issues related to these topics and to ITU's ongoing work in this area.
