World Vision (WV) through its project, Sanma Community Economic Development (SCED) project has been working together with Certlink to deliver better services to farmers from South Santo. The initiative of "100 'bisnis in a box' mobile phones for the launch of the VCMB “Information, Marketing & Management Systems” (IMMS), mobile and a cloud-based online database platform designed to deliver a track and trace system for people and product in the various commodity supply chains" (www.facebook.com/Certlink) is another step in developing ICT transfers towards innovative agriculture. The initiative was supported by the local mobile network provider Digicel, which have provided access to mobile networks in almost every island in Vanuatu and in Sanma Province.
