Africa: media and technology for change and participation

Along with controversial elections and “forgotten” wars, the recent dramatic events in North Africa and Middle East revealed the central role of social media and mobile tools toward change. How can people use them to activate a more participatory and open process?  What are the best tools and technologies available on the ground? How to empower local projects and communities in order to have their voices heard throughout the world?
