What are the benefits of using this system?
By making data collection easier, faster, and in some cases even possible, organizations and companies around the world can quickly acquire and aggregate on-the-ground information from people directly affected by a specific issue or topic. Local people and communities who are often less literate, have marginal economic or social status, or live in difficult conditions also benefit by proactive participation, while simultaneously providing them a communication channel for information highly relevant to them.
VOXS also enables local people and communities to benefit by working more closely with concerned parties, such as large and small international organizations, disaster relief agencies, and monitoring bodies as they seek to engage these communities, build trust, and improve lives over the short and long-term. Many organizations have expressed interest in VOXS, particularly in their desire to assess immediate needs, track long-term trends, allow for rapid adjustment of activities, and most importantly, to acquire real-time data without relying on middle-men and intermediaries.
