A Mobile App Having an Impact on Food Security in Africa

In sub-Saharan Africa, the average farmer plants their crops 30 days late, dramatically affecting yield in a region where food insecurity is widespread. Having access to tractors, a scarce and out-of-reach resource for many farmers is vital. Hello Tractor, an agricultural technology social enterprise set out to change that through a digital tractor sharing application, connecting tractor owners with farmers. In this compelling presentation, you’ll hear all about the transformative impact this “NetJet like app for tractor sharing” has had on food production and food security, enabling farmers that use the app to plant 40 times faster; the beneficial generation of a revenue stream for tractor owners; the unique relationship and partnership with tractor manufacturer John Deere; and how Progress Kinvey allowed Hello Tractor to focus on delivering unique value. As Mr. Oliver says, “If we can get our technology onto as many tractors in sub-Saharan Africa as possible, we can confront food insecurity in that region and improve the livelihoods of hundreds of millions of people.”

Sessions:

Wed, 08 May | 10:00 AM - 10:45 AM

Coding Accessibility: Best Practices from the Front Lines

Web accessibility is no longer something we can afford to ignore or put off for a future date. It’s no longer just a nice, human idea – now it’s a legal requirement. Compliance with WCAG Level AA guidelines – the accepted accessibility standard – should be an out-of-the-box requirement. But making your existing digital products accessible can seem like a daunting challenge. And the more complex your site, app, or software, the harder it will be. There are tools that can help and best practices you can follow to make that work a lot easier and more straightforward. In this session, you’ll learn how to tackle the biggest pitfalls associated with making your digital products accessible. We’ll talk about tools that offer ready-made accessibility capabilities and make development life easier, like Progress’ component library, Kendo UI. We’ll focus on how to interpret tricky gray areas in your accessibility scans, best practices for making tough choices within the guidelines, and tips for training clients. We’ll also go beyond the scans and code to talk about the real people who use screen readers to navigate your digital product online. In short, you’ll leave equipped to make your sites, apps and software available to all, barrier-free -- and rest easy knowing you're in compliance.
