Benjamin Phelan is the Head of Innovation & Technology for Future Brilliance Afghanistan Organization, and an expert in online educational media. In this video, he discusses the Digital Literacy Initiative, whose goal is to equip young Afghan men and women with solar-powered computer tablets and train them in their use of social media, mobile money, online business, and e-learning. He believes that Powered solar tablets are business tools which help start ups and entrepreneurs to promote their business. Besides using the applications inside the tablets, they will connect with the international market through the new financial program run by Afghans called "M-Paisa", which allows them to send and receive money, and get micro finance loans.
