Background of the project

Over the years, CARE has continued to innovate and adapt the methodology to accommodate different expectations and has become a platform for laying and linkage of other development outcomes. 

Chomoka is a smartphone-supported tool offering savings groups –and women in particular –a low-risk entry point to the digital economy. and a path to transition from informal to formal financial inclusion. Launched in Tanzania in 2018 Chomoka, was built with the goal of digitizing record keeping for Saving Groups creating a path to transition the groups from informal to formal financial inclusion.

Chomoka allows for accurate record keeping and eliminates the need for paper-based ledgers or passbooks. Savings Groups continue to meet in person and run their meetings entirely on the application. Automated calculations allow members flexibility in how to structure their group operations, while digitized records create a financial profile and credit history that may be leveraged to access formal services. Chomoka operates offline and data flows link through SMS, making it accessible in low connectivity settings. At the end of each meeting, members receive confirmation of their transactions through SMS, giving them real time control over their contributions.

Scope of work

The scope of this assignment is to develop animated short 1.5 animated video clips to illustrate how to use the Chomoka application highlighting the benefits of the digital record keeping system.
