The process of mapping KANCO member organisations is underway and can be viewed at www.kanco.ushahidi.com. During this period we were able to have discussions with the Google team and the AIDSPortal team to discuss the way forward. Currently the information is being updated to have the correct physical location addresses, among other relevant fields.
Again, during this period, Google and Mindset in South Africa were able to design an SMS system, which they are finalizing. KANCO will be used to market the system when sending SMS to respective members.
