Dimagi's Mohini Bhavsar Talks About Using CommCare to Combat Gender-Based Violence
Last month, Dimagi India’s Mohini Bhavsar was invited to speak at the Wilson Center about how Dimagi’s technology is being used to help people identify, treat, track, and reduce gender-based violence in India. The talk was part of a panel held at the Wilson Center in DC entitled “Gender-Based Violence and Innovative Technologies: Opportunities, Challenges, and Ethical Considerations.”
During her presentation, Mohini discussed Dimagi’s experience developing a CommCare mobile application that helps counselors interact with victims of gender-based violence. “The counselors have to be very receptive to the response of the survivor, and so you don’t necessarily want to build a system that’s very automated,” explained Bhavsar.
