Title: Tanzania - First Mile Project - June 2005
Description: Wili village, Hai, Tanzania. Magdalena Massawe, farmer and processor of cereals and fruits including mango, pawpaw and banana. "The buyers taste the products and give an opinion which sometimes influences others in whether the products are good or bad. It gets hard when someone deliberately tells bad side of it," reveals Magdalena.

The First Mile Project began in 2005. The primary focus of the initiative is encouraging the development of telecommunication technologies as well as connecting isolated rural areas with markets. By improving market intelligence and access to markets, the project facilitates poverty alleviation by maximizing the income potential of small-scale farmers, processors, and traders.
