On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This book analyzes the “bridge contracts” and laws which Kenya used to build a network of 180,000 mobile money agents in Kenya. The firm uses these agents (comprising corner stores and other retail outlets) to provide the mobile money mobile money service to 30 million people in Kenya. The book uses insights from this study to critique existing law and development programs run by the United Nations, World Bank, and other organizations. The book draws on fieldwork in Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania, and other countries in Africa, and work with the United Nations, World Bank, and International Monetary Fund.
