From: Catherine Wong <catwong at stanford.edu>

I hope you had a wonderful break, and I wanted to encourage you to apply to
an *Engineers for a Sustainable World (ESW) <http://esw.stanford.edu/>* team
I'm leading with Nick Hershey <nhershey at stanford.edu>. Last year,
while building
healthcare software in East Africa, Nick and I found that many
international organizations are unable to collect data from the communities
they serve. Thus, our goal this year is to build a platform that allows for
communication with and data collection from the nearly *60% of the global
population that uses cellphones but does not have internet access*. Our
plan is to build an extension to Google Forms that allows surveys to be
sent via SMS or voice calls.

To achieve this goal, we're partnering with mobile technology groups around
the world and looking for five students (software engineers, UI/UX
designers, and one partner relations) to help us out. Participants will
enroll in CEE 177X

ESW's international project classes, and should be prepared to enroll
during the winter and spring. Depending on funding, some members may travel
to implement our technology in India.

*Apply here by Wednesday, January 5th, 11:59pm!
