Mobile technology provides solutions that address challenges associated with forced migration and can improve the well-being and socioeconomic status of refugees living in protracted displacement. Access to digital services, especially through smartphones, has become a vital tool for many refugees as they journey from their home and as they begin to settle in host countries.This study explored how refugees traveling within East Africa use technology to support migration, and to what extent current solutions meet their needs.The final project report provides information on the methodology, activities, outputs, impact and dissemination of learning.
