Background

With the COVID-19 pandemic spreading across the globe, governments are seeking innovative and dynamic solutions to make the right decisions at the right time, both to save lives and minimise the long-term impact on the economy. Beyond providing connectivity, mobile operators are in a unique position to add value with many having developed capabilities to provide aggregated and anonymised mobile data insights on population movements within countries. These insights can support decision making for significant challenges including health epidemics, climate action and disaster preparedness.
