Digital tools offer a wide range of benefits to users, but it takes specific skills and knowledge to use a mobile phone effectively and safely. The resources and dialogue suggestions provided in this tool were created to help facilitators demonstrate the value and the functionality of mobile phones and mobile internet to savings group members, while educating users on basic concepts related to online safety, data protection and privacy.

This tool is a part of the Digital Savings Group (DSG) Toolkit: Tools to Support Safe and Gender-responsive Digitization of Savings Groups. It can be used individually or as a complete set, depending upon the needs of the implementer. 

The tool is accompanied by an introductory video, which provides guidance on how to use it.
