The document discusses using information and communication technologies (ICT) and participatory monitoring to help address solid waste management challenges in Maputo, Mozambique. A participatory service monitoring platform was developed that allows citizens to report issues using mobile apps, with the reports then shared with relevant actors and feedback provided. The platform brings together various stakeholders from government, universities, non-profits and the private sector. An initial pilot involved 40 citizen monitors across four neighborhoods and resulted in a fully functioning platform and two supervisor apps.
