health care workers
for community health
care workers in the field
large number of children
to look after
in village (not in clinics)
14. clearwind consulting
identify and help
sometimes not easy to spot malnurished kids
maybe no records
let other people know the kid needs help
parents sometimes have enough trouble feeding rest
of the family

disclaimer
I am not a health care
worked or related to
development
i know the techy bits
can't speak about
efficiency of the program

Robbed of vital nutrients as
children, they grow up stunted and
sickly, weaklings in a land that still
runs on manual labor.

1. see what's going where
2. route to different
its a django standard,
more friendly for other
users
easier to change sms
without having to
change the code
47. clearwind consulting
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^new (.*)',
"apps.mctc.views.joining.new_case"),
)
despite the name, url
patterns can be used for
more than just urls

class NewForm(Form):
child = StringField(valid="(d+)")

class based views
http://www.slideshare.net/simon/
classbased-views-with-django
54. clearwind consulting
class based view that does repetitive
work
→ validate form
→ process form
→ what to do if it goes wrong
subclassed for different country (eg.
Malawi)

another framework?
designed for a non-technical audience
as a techy that can be annoying, eg settings.py
if you just want to speak to SMS and nothing else, maybe better way to go

We have over 5000 kids in the
system now and counting. It's
been used to catch over 100 kids
with malnutrition and about 400
with malaria.
