 * WhatsApp - messaging service used throughout the world. Several of the EWB teams have significantly improved communications with their in-country community project teams using WhatsApp with the available cellular phone service. Many of these communities lack reliable internet and email. Tracking and monitoring project progress between EWB team visits has significantly improved the timeliness of reporting data. This is especially important for water distribution project where controlling the water quality must be maintained and any small corrections must be made immediately to prevent larger problems that can develop quickly if the situation goes untreated.
