Abstract

Evidence from the literature reveals that the quality of the populace affects the level of development; hence, education is a vital ingredient because of the role it plays in improving the quality of people. Less developed regions, however, have not been able to tap adequately into the opportunities provided by education to improve their people’s quality. Some of the factors responsible for this include non-availability, limited access and high costs of education. This study, therefore, explores the possibility of facilitating inclusive development via mobile learning in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), considering the level of possession of mobile devices in SSA and the opportunities to provide information and knowledge affordably via the platform.
